[The Price is Right]

Not Québecois but a QMJHL player. Should make all the Québecoia happy0

 

[Jee]

Bienvenu à Montréal, Kid !

They got a QMJHL player and a kid with a French name now, does that = one French Canadian?

 

[Whitesnake]

Happy with the pick. Fell because of his size. But aside from that, huge hockey IQ. Like him.

 

[Sagikev]

Yep and he had good stats, and good playoffs stats. Happy with the pick, I think he could be a good one.

Haven't watch the Q this year though so I only saw highlights

 

[KevSkillz4]

33 points in 59 games in his first season at 16 year old, 38 points in 33 games at 17 years old and 17 points, 9 games in playoffs. Not bad stats there.

 

[Mike Hasselhoffman]

Very solid pick, smart and technically advanced for his age. Undersized but that shouldn’t scare us off

 

[CoupeStanley]

They got a QMJHL player and a kid with a French name now, does that = one French Canadian?

Not that I care but Mailloux speaks pretty decent french he just did an interview.

 

[19VJ17]

AWESOME PICK

honestly I now nothing about him but I do like his name

Welcome to the Habs Riley

 

[Jabba11]

Welcome to Montreal Riley! Very good pick here!

 

[Habidelidoo]

Not that I care but Mailloux speaks pretty decent french he just did an interview.

Seemed like he can read French but does not know a word.

 

[Treb]

 

[Michelangelo]

Liking the trend towards high IQ forwards

 

[Naslund]

He looks like he is 14-year-old.

 

[GobigorGohome]

Kinda puny.
Wasted pick,

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

He looks like he is 14-year-old.

That makes him older than Caufield.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

He looks like he is 14-year-old.

Caufield looked 12 when we drafted him, that worked out. Let’s keep drafting all the minors lol

 

[TeacherMan]

Is his skating really poor or just below average?

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Love when we take high IQ guys.

 

[Dondini]

Apparently this kid took a big step in the playoffs. He’s 165ish pounds at 5’11. Average nhl weight at 5’11 is about 190. He’s got lots of room to improve physically which is good. Sometimes taking fully developed kids can back fire. Don’t mind this pick

 

[morhilane]

Is his skating really poor or just below average?

He's really slow. Training can probably improve that, but with his current speed he won't make the NHL.
