RDS announced their AHL schedule yesterday - they'll have 16 games: http://www.rds.ca/2.17262/rds-presentera-16-matchs-du-rocket-de-laval-cette-saison-1.5727678 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Hmmm, tempting to add RDS, but they have basically doubled cost of that channel, so will opt for radio I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, Laval doesn't really have an English radio feed. TSN 690 will do select Friday home games and that's it so you'll be relying on the opposing feed probably 80-85% of the time unless you want to try the French radio feed.

Guest Stogey24 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Used to be like $3.00 for RDS and you'd get every single Habs game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they want $10 for any one French channel now, so will skip on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Laval's training camp roster camp out and there's only one new invitee in the mix, goalie Patrick Spano who was the starter at Yale last season. He's probably just a field filler although I guess the #2 spot in Brampton is up for grabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 Stefan Fournier is back in the organization...sort of. He has signed an ECHL deal with Brampton which might him in line for a PTO stint or two with Laval this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMAC Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 You are right. I do find it comforting as I couldn't see any rational reason for his continued presence in Montreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Fucale 5g on 18 shots....uggg. Back to ECHL for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Fucale probably is the AHL backup and McNiven to the ECHL. They will want McNiven to play games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Assuming everyone clears and no trades happen, does anyone want to take a stab at probable lines for Laval? *stares intently at dlbalr* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only regular season games count towards the calculation (which actually turns Redmond from V to V-). (And for anyone wondering about Morrow, he has less than 260 pro GP so if/when he's sent down, he can be pencilled in on defence.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'd guess Redmond plays a lot. Especially since he's a RH shot and Gelinas is a left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a possibility but I don't think Gelinas signed to be scratched regularly. Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked if they're looking at finding Redmond a home overseas right now. His days in the NHL are clearly numbered and now he will be in a rotation for playing time at best in the AHL. If I were him, I'd be looking to get out of the contract or at least secure some kind of loan elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth noting here is that Deslauriers is also eligible for veteran status so the same logjam exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 They don't have much in the way of forward depth to recall down there. This signing gives Laval a whopping one forward that's under contract that can be recalled without having to burn a PTO. (For that matter, they don't have a single contracted defenceman to call up yet either.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
