#1. Nick Suzuki win’s the Frank Silk Trophy as the NHL’s best defensive forward
#2. Cole Caufield wins the Lady Bing Trophy as the NHL’s most gentlemanly player

#5. Trading for Mason McTavish would be an enormous mistake by Montreal.
#6. Dylan Larkin is not what Montreal needs.
#7. Why would Montreal want Alexis Lafreniere?
#8. Thankfully, Patrik Laine’s contract is running out very shortly.
#9. The focus needs to remain on Adam Enstrom, Michael Hage, Jacob Fowler, Alexandre Zharovsky, Bryce Pickford, Owen Protz, David Reinbacher, Owen Beck, Florian Xhekaj, Luke Tuch and Tyler Thorp. Don’t forget, doubt or overlook Sam Harris, Bogden Konyushkov, Yevgeni Volokhin, L.J. Mooney, Alexis Cournoyer, Quentin Miller, Sean Farrell, Logan Sawyer or Luke Mittelstadt. None of these players have even arrived in Montreal yet?
#10. Of course, everyone else wants to make trades with Montreal, to get their hands on the best talent pool in the entire league.
#11. It will be sad to see Bredan Gallagher depart Montreal, he has been the modern-day Bob Gainey and Guy Carbonneau and is the definition of the true heart and soul of an NHL Hockey Club.
#12. The Nashville Predators have hired Colorado Avalanche General Manager Chris McFarland as their new President of Hockey Operations and their new General Manager.

#14. Look at Mitch Marner now. Leading all players in points in the playoffs, is the odds on to win the Conn Smyth Trophy as the playoff MVP and broke the fastest time to score a hat trick in a playoff games, that was held by Maurice Richard for 69 years. The problem was the organization, the city and the fans, not the player. OPP’s!
#15. So much for the core 4. It’s the unproductive three and the one that got away.
