Take him away from the Habs hype machine, and I doubt it.
Again, not saying that there are no good goalies in the first round....just saying that not even the pro scouts seem to get a good handle on drafting goalies, or know who the 'right" or "wrong" goalie is. It's just not worth wasting a 1st rounder.
