The reason why SJ is ahead of the sharks in their rebuild is 1. They got massive draft luck...the fact that they got the 1st OA during this specific season was massive. Celebrini is the closest any player will get to Sydney Crosby, AND they got Handed Sam Dickinson on a silver platter....that is your #1 center and your #1 Defense right there. Then, they got given Askarov...like litterally given....They were also able to sign players....because players would rather play next to the ocean on a sandy beach than in the frozen hell that is Montreal during winter. They also started with a much better roster to trade away than montreal did (Thank you Bergevin). Erik Karlsson, Timo Meier, Thomas Hertl all fetched 1st round picks (Dickinson, Musty and Edstrom+2025 1st round) and more....Montreal had to be extra creative to get those where they could...and when they did they got the worst possible luck (Florida making the playoffs because Pittsburg choked against the 2 worst teams in the league, then making it to the cup because Boston and Toronto sucks). I will say that drafting Mesar instead of Lambert or Kulich is still baffling, but otherwise, the drafting has been sound. Overall, SJ's rebuild was easier since they did not have nearly as many bad contract and could actually trade players, they got lucky on the year they won the lottery, not because Slaf is not a great prospect, but because Celebrini is special AND they have an easier time signing players...so yeah, they are ahead, but started with a better base.
Agreed , Slafkovski is a project at best and would not have been able to get as many points if not for Suzuki and Caufield . It’s only going to get harder for him with Demidov and Laine both in the line-up next year . I don’t see him bumping either one out of the top six .
@@anthonydiaco139 Born and raised Montrealer and been watching the habs for over 35 years . Slafkovsky was only drafted first overall due to his size .

@@arihia45 If Hutson is on your 1st pair, you have an issue. He his great but won't be able to sustain 30 minutes of being pushed around on the boards for a full season.

That would be awesome, but you need to trade for RHD then. Franchise Caliber Goaltender has been a luxury for a while now. In the past 10 years (2015+), only Tampa and Florida won the cup with a franchise goalie. Every other team had a good goalie that was simply good when it mattered. Outside of Vasilevsky and Bobrovsky, there wasnt another franchise goalie that won. Fowler seems to be on a right path to be that reliable number 1 that might not be a franchise talent, but is good enough to bring you there. As far as superstar player is, I do have to agree, Demidov fits the bill, but they need to surround him with complementary players. Slafkovsky seems like a perfect match as a puck retrieval, net front presence (Panarin/Kreider duo type). But a real center to play with them will be needed...maybe Hage, but you would someone better to really say you have a top of the league 1st line (Hagens? McKenna (let's hope)?).

This comment - Sharks fan here, this leagues fans are so tunnel visioned - Celebrini is on a hot streak right now as soon as he hits a slump - “What’s wrong with Celebrini??? Is Celebrini a Bust!1?1!?” Every player will have their moment - and when Demidov arrives - the league will be caught off guard.
@@JapaneseAmericanaJiuJitsu I have believed that Celebrini was a Crosby level prospect since before his draft...the playstyle, the energy level, the motor, the leadership...all of it screams Crosby. The only thing is that Crosby is a better play driver and thus is superior to Celebrini...but Celebrini WILL lead the sharks to a cup and be the main driving force behind that team.
yes, the sharks have surpassed the habs in terms of rebuild simply due to the fact that they have celebrini who in my opinion is a better overall player than bedard
The HABS rebuild would probably go a little quicker if not for the constant biased officiating against them from the Bettman zebras IMO. Not to mention Primeau. Might as well play with an empty net.
You nailed it 💯%.Worst biased incompetent officiating that I have witnessed in 64 years of watching the Habs. Gorton and Molson have to present the evidence to the league it's a joke and yes Prime au is a nice young man but he had to go before he demoralizes the entire team. We can see the way they play after a soft goal.
Habs and Sharks are pretty close to the bottom of the league. Sharks also started their rebuild a year or 2 earlier than us. They also have their 2 last #1 draft picks playing in the NHL, whereas the Habs have neither. I would expect Demidov and Reinbacher to both be playing in the NHL next season (Reinbacher might need to time in the AHL). Im actually hoping Habs end up bottom 3 this season, and pick up an Elite future 1a/1b Center. We missed out 2 yrs ago on Bedard/Fanitill/Carlsson, which was very disappointing.
Where are you getting that the Sharks started their rebuild a year or two earlier than the Habs? The Sharks re-signed Hertl to an eight year extension (a decisively non-rebuild move) on March 16, 2022, just over three months before the Habs picked Slafkovsky with a first overall pick. In the hunt for a new GM, one of the criteria was "not just going to rebuild" and GM Silky was hired as the replacement GM. His first move was to trade down from 11 to 27 in the draft. They did move Burns for pennies on the dollar not long after that. Sure, in 2021 they picked 7th and in 2020 they would've had the 3rd pick if they hadn't traded the unprotected first to get Karlsson, but that doesn't mean they were rebuilding. I'd say the rebuild really started late in the 22-23 season when they moved Timo Meier and followed it up by moving Karlsson in the offseason.
The Sharks commit on rebuilding only Feb 26th 2023, when they traded Timo Meier. It is not even two years ago. The Habs are on a rebuilding mode every 5 years since 1995.
@@jonmendelson1104I'm not a follower of the Sharks so I assume you are correct, however they sucked for the last 6yrs including this year, and the Habs sucked for 4 (including this year). The habs finally gave the green light for a rebuild, but it has been long overdo. If they rebuilt 15yrs earlier, then maybe Price would have brought us a cup.
I agree that Sharks are ahead of Habs in the rebuild - but there is a caveat: Habs have much much higher potential than any other team in the NHL. Here are few recommendetions as someone who is unqualified in Hockey - I dont even know how to skate on ice: 1. They need to adjust their goalkeeper (Primeau - bye) 2. Dach bye. 3. What is Newhook doing in the first line? he deserves to be on 3rd or 4th line or bye. 4. Slafkovsky is still sleeping - wake up dude, get some energy. 5. MSL - your players are playing unorganized system after 20 something games - that is not players fault. The team has 4 fastest players in the NHL(based on dailyhive) and he is not even utilizing those potentials.
I've been a Habs fan for over 50 years. I have never seen this entire organization in such a horrible state from the inside out. They couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag before the rebuild. Having said that, they are rebuilding from the very top to the bottom, left to right and inside out. That does take a long time. I see the Sharks as a more of a minor rebuild that involves mainly the players and not the staff so much. Montreal is rebuilding an organization. That is why they are incredibly frustrating to watch. I find it increasingly difficult to be patient when I watch them. Patience for everyone is wearing very thin.
@@Legoface660 comparing the habs from the 80's and the post cap-era habs is simply disingenuous. If Montreal had the ability to give a player 50M to come play for them AND be able to get the 1st OA each draft, so long as the prospect is from Quebec, we would still be in the top 5 teams of the league year in year out. The salary cap hurt the canadian team more than any other. They were some of the richest teams and were able to sign players despite the tax discrepancy. Now they need to fight to keep the good players by making sure they get infinite sponsors and other products to sell....reason why Gaudreau and Tckachuk walked out on Calgary. The league is completely different and the context does not favor canadian teams now....also Bergevin stole the cup from Price.....He had the best goalie in the world and failed to put a team around him.
@@Jim-cz6om Sorry to say the Sharks started the rebuild with a clean plate : new GM, new coaches, new players, the main reason why it is a faster rebuild, they accepted to have a very bad year last year and it helped to get a younger team this year. They traded the old guys they signed last year to get younger guys. Grier has done a wonderful job so far.
Seriously?? Lego, first video I have to disagree. The sharks are where the Habs were last year. The single biggest issue the Habs face this year is that there is absolutely ZERO system in place. Down to MSL.He will not be a NHL coach for very long. He has passion in bundles and knows how to instill confidence in young talent, but zero knowledge of implementing a real winning system. Will everyone get off Dach's back. He was gone for an entire year.. He may only begin to find his game towards the end of the year., if ever. Until then play him on the 3rd or 4thline and let him find himself. He is worth ZERO on the trade block right now, so its not worth talking about him..Yes,Primeau should have been demoted à long time ago..
The sharks have been bad for longer though. Haven't made the playoffs in 5 years. I don't really see why this is surprising. It's also not like the sharks are setting the world on fire. They are 4 points up on the Habs, but have played 3 more games.
While the Sharks haven't made the playoffs in five years, they'd traded away their unprotected 2020 first round pick to get Karlsson (ended up 3rd overall - Stutzle), re-signed Hertl to an 8 year extension late in the 21-22 season, traded back from 11 to 27 in the 2022 draft, and I'd argue didn't really start rebuilding until they moved Timo Meier followed at the 2023 TDL followed by moving Karlsson that offseason.
@@philippejean2052 they were in the finals in 2021. Despite that being a big surprise, they were definitely not in a rebuilding mode until the end of 2022 and you obviously don't understand the Montreal market.
