TEXT ME! WE ANSWER

Did the Montreal Canadiens just signal a shift in their long-term plan at 2C? In this video, we break down the latest development with Michael Hage, who has now played two straight weeks on the wing at the University of Michigan. What does that mean for his projection as a center at the NHL level?

We also evaluate the recent play of Kirby Dach and Oliver Kapanen with the Canadiens. Is Dach still the ideal 2C of the future? Is Kapanen forcing his way into real consideration? And how do these performances impact the Habs’ roster strategy moving forward?

We look at:

Why Michigan may have moved Hage to the wing

How the Canadiens have evaluated Dach’s return and usage

Whether Oliver Kapanen is tracking as an NHL 2nd line center 

What this means for the Habs’ depth chart and long-term build

If you’re a Habs fan who cares about prospect development, roster construction, and the future core of the team, this is the breakdown you need.
