The popularity of Trevor Timmins is not extraordinary in Montreal. Openly criticized for his mistakes since he took office, many people want him to leave office in order to make room for someone else.
That said, he still managed some good shots … but not necessarily in known aspects.
As a master of the draft, Timmins has many hopes all year long. Young people from other teams, he knows them on the tips of his fingers for having analyzed them in previous years.
This is what makes it so that, when the time comes to get hold of a hope from another organization, it makes sense to see him have a say in the youngster’s arrival in the metropolis.
And as Louis Jean reports on the TVA Sports website, he had a say in the arrival of Nick Suzuki in the organization.

This is why, during negotiations with the Golden Knights to send Max Pacioretty to Nevada, the Canadian asked to obtain a player (whose identity was not revealed by Martin Lapointe during the interview with Louis Jean) in return for Pacioretty.
This player is probably Cody Glass, depending on what is circulating.
It was indeed Cody Glass according to several sources at the time. https://t.co/DJI8D6c0qI

In the negotiation game, the Knights therefore refused, offering Nick Suzuki instead. This is where Timmins gave his seal of approval, saying it would be a good fit to Montreal.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
He may not have submitted the name of the young Ontarian, but the fact remains that he approved his candidacy.
And we will remember that at the time, he was not the best-viewed player in the world.
When I saw him play at the junior level, I didn’t like his pace on skates. But he’s so strong on the legs, he protects the puck well and he’s very smart, so that compensates. – Martin Lapointe
Speed in today’s hockey is pretty important thank you. Our hat is on Timmins on this one.
