Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Trust The Process #103 - Habs Could Benefit From This Team’s Bad Start!
Q: Does this same leadership life cycle apply to NHL general managers? When a GM stays in place for 7 to 10 years, do they inevitably become too attached to their own drafts, contracts and roster construction to make the unbiased moves needed to win? At what point does tenure stop being about stability and start becoming stagnation?
Simon Boisvert says general managers must adapt as the game and circumstances change. He argues that some hold on to successful formulas and aging players for too long, giving the Chicago Blackhawks' decline as an example. He compares the pattern to companies that replace leaders when they cannot guide the next phase, while noting that the situations are not identical.
Trust The Process #104 - Have The Habs Already Made Their Decision?
Q: Are the Canadiens really in a good position cap-wise next season, given their available cap space and the players they still need to sign?
Boisvert says the rising salary cap and Montreal's cost certainty make the outlook manageable. He notes that several current contracts run for years and says the Canadiens may have substantial flexibility to add players around 2028, while still needing to spend carefully.
Trust The Process #104 - Have The Habs Already Made Their Decision?
Q: What's the recipe for a successful rebuild, how quickly can it realistically be done, and are there warning signs in the Canadiens' current rebuild?
Simon Boisvert says successful rebuilds require high draft picks, strong scouting, trades, and lottery luck, while shortcuts can lead to a plateau. He considers the Canadiens to have core stars but says they still need to complement them properly and eventually spend to fill roster holes.
Trust The Process #105 - Snake Reveals His Player To Watch For The 2027 NHL Draft!
Q: When a rookie has a strong first NHL season, how do you determine whether his production is sustainable or partly due to favorable circumstances?
Boisvert recommends looking for consistency throughout the season, repeatable skills such as winning puck battles and making plays through the slot, and a strong prior record. A high shooting percentage, short hot streak or sudden emergence warrants caution.
Trust The Process #105 - Snake Reveals His Player To Watch For The 2027 NHL Draft!
Q: Why don't teams move talented offensive defensemen who are not very interested in playing defense to the wing?
Boisvert says some defensemen may lack the skills for wing, and teams may lose value by moving a high-scoring defenseman away from the position. A more responsible defensive partner can help, but he considers that solution a temporary fix.
