They're getting bigger for sure. Building a real bottom 6. I don't hate it. 

 

A big move is coming. there is no way Beregvin only adds to the bottom 6.

My thinking as well.  Too many pieces at the bottom end of the roster.  Wondering if we could see something like McCarron, Andrighetto, Beaulieu and a 1st for Duchene.  Maybe that's not enough, but something has to give here.

They have a bottom 12 at this point.

Lol, I know, but the bottom of this line up has done absolutely nothing for months now. You're right though for sure

That's $2m off the cap. Without trading Pleky (and i think Beaulieu is already a goner), do they have any room for someone of impact?

 

 

Maybe Emelin is moving to free up space

Not really.  It'd help if McCarron went down as that would free up some space.  I'll get to the cap sheet in a bit, I'm working on the site write-up at the moment.

Like all of MB's moves, I think this is a small upgrade, but still doesn't address our greatest needs.

I think it does.  For many years we have been too small and got out-hit.  While speed is great, it's a time proven strategy that physicality wins series.  We disappear in physical games, it's why we are horrible on California road trips with 3 big physical teams.  

 

While led I would like to see another 2nd line guy with some scoring touch added, I think these little tweaks will make us a better team for the rest of the year.

Jeezuz.... Benn, Ott and now King?  Grit, Sandpaper and Truculence.  Is Brian Burke wearing a MB disguise?

Yeah, MB's blueprint is one of the worst leafs organization ever.  Unless something big happens over the next hour, it looks like a lot of my garbage for your garbage deals.

I like this move by MB. We've needed size for the longest time and King brings that to the Habs.
