[Elliotte Friedman] Still work to be done, but looking like 2020 second-rounder Luke Tuch will sign with the Canadiens

1. Wise decision, not a lot of NHL teams with better opportunity

2. I think he’s a guy who will surprise people! Big body with a nasty edge and some sneaky skill

3. I would be quite happy with this, he fills a bit of a bottom 6 prospect gap for us, big, a bit grindy, some skill.

   Would be good for both sides.

4. Nice. Glad he didn’t walk for nothing

5. I have high hopes for Tuch. Just like Struble, I think he can prove many doubters wrong and end up a nice 3rd line physical player.

6. I would assume this means his elc starts burning immediately. If the habs wanted to sign him to a florian xhekaj type contract (ATO with laval end of season before elc starts next year), he wouldve tested the market

7. I see a resemblance to Lucas Condotta except Tuch has a much heavier shot but otherwise he’ll just move weight his around. Could he be a Pezz replacement on the long run, maybe but I’m not banking on it.

8. if EITHER Tuch and Mysak aren’t with the Habs next year I might just become a Utah fan

9. We already lost Mysak, can’t lose Tuch the same year.

10. We’ve had some decent drafts recently

11. Let’s goooooo! We need SIZE in our bottom 6!

12. He will fill a need on the physical part of the game. He can skate and he’s strong. He has some decent skills, but dont expect too much points production.

13. RIP Tuch Mysak fantasy duo.
