Machine of Loving Grace Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 He's doing pretty well, though it would have been nice to see more goals scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have atrocious D and mediocre goaltending at best this season; that line could produce a goal in every game and we'd be in no danger of winning.

Yes, solid development of these three over last 30 games is more important than picking 5 vs 9th, I think. Another Sergachev-type pick his year would be OK, especially if Scherbak and linemates can develop some chemistry and bury some pucks.

We should just trade the vets already and call up the kids see what we have and what we might need going into next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much easier said than done given the cap constraints a lot of contending teams have. There's a reason there aren't many trades in early February and that most fall within a week of the trade deadline and the cap element is that reason. That said, the Habs don't really have to start trading people to free up roster spots. Byron Froese should make it through waivers again and I don't think anyone would be too upset if Logan Shaw went back on waivers. There's two spots right there.

dlbalr Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 And Scherbak has been sent down to open up a roster spot for Shaw or Danault to return tomorrow. I'm sure he'll be back next week post-deadline if not earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s call rewarding one of the few players that are worth watching. i get they can send him down unlike others, but move some of the bums off this team already to make room for the kid!

I have to laugh. During the last GDT, literally the ONLY positive thing anyone had to say involved the kid and his chemistry with Galy. Now we can't have people saying positive things and feeling good about some aspect of the Habs. The joylessness quotient has to be at 100. It's the Habs, after all.

Why not keep them? Maybe you get a 6th round pick at the deadline from someone. Is it worth it to get 2 more games for Scherbak or explore an extra 6th or 7th round pick. Is 2 games in the AHL instead of the NHL really going to effect his development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say that if the Habs find a suitor for Froese or L. Shaw at the deadline, I’ll contribute $1 to the $100 you owe a poster on here for the Habs missing the playoffs. But instead, if the Habs can actually find trade partner for Froese or L. Shaw at the deadline, I’ll just eat my fist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXx..CK..xXx Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I agree that we shouldn’t have waived them either, just to play Scherbak. Hopefully he’s back up soon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine of Loving Grace Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Nobody is giving up a 17th round pick for Logan Shaw or Froese. They are both wastes of pro contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
