Not sure where to put this signing, but Brock Trotter signed a 1 year, two-way deal. He will need to pass through waivers to play in the AHL.
So... Habs or Dogs?
With all the hometown players the Jets signed today i could not help to point there
that Trotter has more offensive upside than any of these players, Rypien, Jones.
Trotter only reason to come back in America is to try out there. He knows they will make
no room for him even if he has a fantastic camp.
So a trade for a 4th round pick or loose him for nothing after the demotion to AHL.
-
Forwards with size are the biggest need.
I like Biggs but i would like a trade down to get him and have a second round player.
I don'T know but between top 10 and 60 i do not see much a convincing top 6 forward.
Althought Arnia is interesting if still available at 17th.
-
1 year too many if you ask me but Gauthier had no other real option,
Meehan knew the habs could not go without him.
Have to admit he is the only star player we could sign.
And a great teacher for Emelin.
-
Good if we can sign him and trade him to his hometown, Manitoba.
If we throw a round pick with him and land Patrice Cormier i would be glad.
Every team needs a Torres, Eager or a player that kind.
Enough of these good small players. Let's had some weight.
-
Good term, one year.
Tradable if things get bad, and still the only habs forward
able to pound Chara.
-
This means see ya Hammer.
The choice was hard to make but the main point there is that
only one year contract was the key.
One year to judge if Weber and Emelin could take full NHL duties.
Anyway great to have Skillsie back for PK purpose.
But a big thank you to Hammer, hoping he lands somewhere to have a
chance to earn a Stanley Cup.
-
A cheap contract entry level for one year, one way or a release clause for a guy who can
play at international level no other Montreal D(except Markov) can do that. Low risk high reward for Habs.
If he crack the line up they save millions. Hope they lock him. And then sign Jagr for one year
.Gauthier should stop by Finland and convince Ramo to sign. He's been a beast out there,
of course we have a Price but how many good trade value we have.
-
Next season i would say habs goalie will make it last until rank between 6-14th.
Drafting has been poor in the late five years.
Habs will pay for that.
And there is no UFA signing or miracle trades that could fix that long term.
As much as i like Price, Subban, Eller, Max Pac and PK. thru are not enough core
to build a contender team.
It takes a franchise center and that cannot fall from the sky unless the scouts
find something that the others didn't see.
-
I really hope PMAC does wash his habs boxers between winning games.
Andrei K should be there to take care of Chara if he put his yellow dress on.
I am pretty sure i saw him hit him in the ribs third period first game.
That would be logic with him having trouble to breath.
Dont't underestimate how heavy Andrei is, he can hurt if he wants to and he seems
to enjoy hitting Chara.
Somebody should take care of Bok choi too, i would like to see Pouliot do that.

Louis Leblanc team is out for the playoffs. Montreal Jumior lost last night
and it went all silent in the media, much like all year. Leblanc was not bad
but not excellent either, he stills has a good vision of the ice but should have
been a factor much more than he had with a good coach and a strong team.
9 points in 10 games in playoffs seems good, but people need to know that bottom
teams in the Q make the playoffs so offensive players record lots of points in the first round.
On the so so side he is very poor at the face circle 45% in playoffs,51% in the season.
Leblanc should join the Bulldogs pretty soon, he will probably help defensively
but won't be a big boost for the Dogs, his game is too shaky this year.
Bournival a year younger has done a better job in the Q this year and he is a tough
nail out there, i see him and teammates battle Remparts to a 7 game serie and we had
a very good player for O'byrne.
If this could heal the pain of Leblanc not developping into a superstar, we have good players
that need polishing and will develop into good role players.
-
Another positive Jack Todd thinks the habs playoff will be a washout.
It's a great thread for him, a glass that remains half full would have
serve him very well.
Anyway thanks Jack ! now i believe.
-
I would be really surprise to see Wiz back next year.
As much is i would like him lock for 3 years under 4 million this will not happen.
A team will go for his stats, not for his whole game wich his average. Overpaying average
would not be good for habs.
Good news there is PK can take the 1st RD for pennies.
Markov is the only player that could make each player of this team a little better.
Taking this gamble is not that risky, when can you add a player of this caliber
for only money ? Scrap Gomez contract and add as many risk like that i am able to
live with it.
Go habs Go for tonight. Go Isles against Canes. Improve you little Islies wish to see you
in Quebec City pretty soon.
-
Eller didn't do any worse than Desharnais, why did he get to bench ?
Way too soft there on defense and offense from everybody.
One thing i heard on my trip on planet Montreal, i heard a Georges Laraque
quote saying that there was no system on that team
that JMnever talks to players and some players doesn't "believe" in the putting the puck behind the d and winning battles.
First what the @£¢
Georges Laraque is doing around this team, theorganisation paid him his million to keep him away, the money shortage hurt
the team for a depth player and this moron has the nerve to stay around the team and make comments like that in a bad streak with the clear intention of getting revenge on JM.
Habs should sue him and leave a perimeter between him and the team.
Second who is the player talking to Laraque not winning any fights, having bad penalties,
not scoring goals and most of all not competing on the ice and backstabbing the coach ?
I have doubts on Pouliot and number 13. But it's hard to say no players really
win 1-1, neither scores or comptete on a daily basis.

Looking ahead this week, tuesday Atlanta at home and Wednesday facing the Canes in Carolina.
This should be to streak to get their head above water, battling a slump just before playoffs
is not a bad thing.
Having a 4 games slump in the playoffs would be worse.
So the key game is Atlanta there, winning this one serves the table for the next day, if Carolina
goes dry against Washington and Montreal wins both they will secure their spot in playoffs this wednesday.
Saving a playoff spot 11 days before season end would be a great achievement for this team.
-
Enggvist recall means one of the day to day center is longer than expected.
Tt took time to know what was really going on with Gorges and Spacek and i
really hope both are able to come back for the playoffs.
Althought the risk of aggravate an injury to long term is not necessary with the current
standings. And the fact that the Great Dane is playing really good gives a break too,
but come on we need a injury free luck streak.
-
The Great Dane is coming out of his shell, and everything confidence gives
to a talented player is a big + for this team.
At some point i wished he would find a scoring stride in the minors
but he learned a lot, on the how to play in the NHL in these 50 games.
I wish they keep this line with AK and Moen.
His success is around the net AND it'S the biggest line i have seen in a long while.
Keep it up kid.
-
Still in the camp of "ban the members who suggest to send Gomez in the minors".
That 4 minutes penalty was again stupid, the game could have stopped there,
especially when Weber is playing his wrong side on penalty killing
The only thing he does really good is carrying the puck in full speed,
it seems liek everybody knows how to play him to shut him down. Not only
him but all his line mates, he took down AK with him, AK without him does
really good with Eller. Now it's MaxPac and Gionta turn to go down with him.
What needs to be done with him is a three games on the press gallery.
Obviously, after the trade deadline, miracles do happen.
Three games out of the line up and a long video session of him when he was good.
I say video because it is probably on video BETA somewhere under piles of dust.
He has every tool but never challenges 1-1, he is a cheater.
-
Watching RDS this morning i almost strangled myself hearing them rambling on Rivet cak to CH.
Ruff sidelined him since jan 11 for a good reason, he stinks.
Only talk habs should have with Buffalo is Connelly. To replace Gomez on top 6 and confine him to a third line.
-
Gomez found a way not to get a - in that game.
He is frozen at -18, -9 in his last 9 games.
AK dropped from +13 to +4 since paired with Gomez.
-
I thought Nash could hold his own better than he did
last night. He was clearly afraid of Edmonton 4th line.
Job to to on his backward skating and mental toughness.
So, i didn't like Mara for most of his abilities but he is not
intimidated and he has a beard, thing that most young Oilers will not have before 10 years.
-
I could smell it this time. There was some rumblings
about a O'brien.
Mara cost pennies and he is a appreciated by a lot of players
in habs locker room.
I just don't like him on the ice.
Too bad for Nash, i like defensemen that can pass the puck.
He will still be there next year.
-
I would not consider trading Nash, left D, accurate pass and his shots hit the net.
work to do on his positionning and skating but sill very good.
Trading this asset would not be a logical move, they are too hard to find.
Even if they all get wounded, i do not want any other 6-7 defensemen from other team.
Valuable experience has been gain by PK and Weber.
Only one thing i wish for his another player that could help Moen on the physical side.
-
Does someone else gave up completely on the Great Dane(Eller) ??
I never had high expectation on him but he achieve to deceive my low expectations, Bulis type.
I think he should be offered as trade bait.
-
Gomez cannot buy or even touch the net.
Gomez cannot win a face off.
I am so fed up of him.
Gorges files for Arbitration, signs 1-year, $2.5M contract
