That's because Galchenyuk and Shaw are listed as wingers.
Just to further highlight the problems at C, check out the new Frozen Tools Depth Chart page
https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/...epthcharts.php
As with any other source for position listings, lots of players who are longtime wingers still get the 'C' label. Still, the Habs have just three under their team. Almost every other team has seven or more listed. It just made me laugh a bit when of course there's a bunch of white space in the under 'C' for the Habs.

Apparently Lars Eller is a pretty decent depth center. 11pts In 14 games thus far in the playoffs - he’s really done a nice job easing the loss of Backstrom. I guess our center depth was looking so good we swapped him for an 88.3% chance to draft a 4th liner...twice. Sounds about right for Ol’ Bergie.

I'm no longer a fan of GMs making big signings on July 1st so here is a short list of players I don't see getting huge money but they're guys I'd give a chance to on my team. Some are young players that need one last chance, others are potential deadline bait. No home runs here because that's not the point of July 1st.
Derek Ryan
Antoine Vermette
Scott Hartnell
Curtis McKenzie
Austin Czarnik

Does make sense, especially if there is more involved. The Habs need something to show for next year though - a top 3 pick fits that bill. I know the Habs have had a man crush on Nick Leddy for years, so maybe something around ...
3+MaxPac
for
11+12+Leddy+DalColle?
Isles give Pulock more responsibility, add a sniper in Pax and another top-end forward in Zadina, Tkachuk or Wahlstrom.
Habs get a much needed Top-4 D in Leddy and can draft to improve their center ice. DalColle is a scratch off lottery ticket.
Never say never, but when was the last time a top 3 pick was traded away? Big risk of looking foolish down the road.

I literally ruined my vacation that year by frantically checking my phone every five minutes because I was worried he would be traded before the no trade clause kicked in. I finally learned of trade at the airport during a transfer on my return home. That was JFK moment. Thanks for bringing it up...
Anyhoo, not impossible they trade down, but I think the more likely move is packaging a couple of those second round picks to acquire a late first round pick.
I agree with this.
Bergevin looked pretty decided about keeping that 3rd pick. About that Subban trade: he was way less convincing in the days leading to the trade.
Personally, I don't see the 11th and the 12th being enough. It's right about where the talent drops in the draft.
Points-only keeper league. 12 teams. Keep any 12 players. Dress 12F - 6D - 2G.
There's been some rumours that Carolina is looking to trade that #2 pick. Not sure what it would take, but it would be nice if the Habs could offer something and get both guys.

With Ducharme and now Bouchard hired, there will be some new and refreshing ideas within in the organization.
Can't be a bad thing for Julien too. He will have to deliver as a coach with these two in the fold.
Good moves to scoop these talented minds, let's see what the Habs do with their on-ice problems now.

I hope you're right. I really want to believe.
As has been stated ad nauseum on these boards, one of the biggest problems that has plagued the Habs for as long as we can remember is poor player development. Bouchard will have his hands full with turning around that AHL roster, but maybe, just maybe, this represents a shift towards using the Laval squad for development like the Marlies and Moose have done in recent years.
Who knows...
