Leblanc will not be with the Habs this year, he will be in Hamilton for at least a year or two. He is not NHL ready

If he does, either something really good happened or something really bad.

Same for him, unless a player is moved or not ready to start the season. He will most probably be the 1st call up especially if it's for an offensive role

Something like this lines could change and we need a 4th line centerman
Gionta-Gomez-Patches
Cole-Pleks-Cammy
Kostitsyn-Eller-Desharnais
Moen-?-Darche and White

And you could add Engqvist or Blunden as the 13th forward

So take Kristo off that list and is it pretty accurate? Will Blunden really be on the roster next year?

Would be better to give him the 13th forward spot than hurt the development of Palushaj by having him sit in the press box.

Well if the Habs don't sign a centerman before the start of the year that forward will most probably be Andreas Engqvist

The guy has a two-way contract. Training camp will tell the whole story about him. He's got size, a bit of NHL experience and he is supposed to be a fast skater.
Habs definitely needs a guy of his size on a bottom line or as the 13th forward.

They also got a vet player like Willsie, who is about the same as Darche.
Too bad they did not keep JT Wyman.... or Pouliot

Leblanc is ahead of Avtsin and Lefebvre and you forgot Brock Trotter who is more ready than everybody on this list.

My take, not including waiver eligibles (Trotter, Blunden, Willsie):
Engqvist
Palushaj
Fortier
Dumont
Conboy
Avtsyn
Leblanc

More like
Engqvist
Trotter
Palushaj
Blunden
Willsie
Leblanc
Unless Leblanc comes out of training camp on fire. He's probably 2 seasons away from NHL ice except as an injury call up unless something terrible happens to the depth chart or he improves far faster than expected.
