shortcat1 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I went to the Canadiens website and, while looking at the player's list, this is what I found. 3 Raitis Ivanans 8 Mike Komisarek 11 Saku Koivu 14 Radek Bonk 17 Peter Vandermeer 20 Richard Zednik 21 Christopher Higgins 22 Steve Bégin 25 Mathieu Dandenault 26 Pierre Dagenais 27 Alex Kovalev 32 Mark Streit 35 Tomas Plekanec 37 Niklas Sundstrom 38 Jan Bulis 42 Alexander Perezhogin 44 Sheldon Souray 51 Francis Bouillon 52 Craig Rivet 65 Ron Hainsey 71 Mike Ribeiro 73 Michael Ryder 79 Andrei Markov 84 Guillaume Latendresse -- Cristobal Huet 60 Jose Théodore 75 Yann Danis This list is post Marcel Hossa. That makes 23 players + three goalies. Now, this may be a stupid question but does the 23 players include or exclude the goalies. Note also that Guillaume Latendresse is still on the list as are both Vandermeer and Ivanans.

It looks like I accidentally deleted it when I copied and edited the list from the Canadiens website. I've just made the correction. Also, thanks Mark Napier for the input. When I saw this list, it got me wondering if I wasn't understanding the composition of a player limit correctly. :hlogo::ghg::hlogo: [Edited on 2005/10/2 by shortcat1] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Streit isn't there either but he probably won't make the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLP Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Originally posted by Bulis_the_HabbieStreit isn't there either but he probably won't make the team. Wel maybe yes and maybe no. Him or Hainsey is the idea, Streit has improved every game so we'll see. If Souray starts on the IR then both S&H can play awhile regular season. We'll see...

BTH Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Bouillon beats them both to their jobs though. He's much better than either of them and might even be good enough to be our fifth defenceman rather than 6th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankhab Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I agree, bulis...Bouillon should be our 6th defenceman, neither Hainsey or Strait have really impressed in the preseason...can Hainsey be demoted without clearing waivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony_ Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Originally posted by Bulis_the_HabbieStreit isn't there either but he probably won't make the team. Streit is guaranteed to play 30 NHL games with the Habs or else the Habs have to give him an extra 200 000$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Napier Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Hainsey will start the season because he can't be sent down without going through waivers. Streit doesn't have to clear waivers and he can pick up his games later in the season. By that time they will have a decision on Hainsey. He's either going to make the team or be traded.

Rooster Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Don't think the Habs secretely post on their website their final roster. Don't even think all final decisions regarding the final lineup have been made. Just think they list players still in camp (and the list may contain mistakes). Kind of reminds me of when, prior to signing Theo, the Habs marketing team but a newspaper add listing notable Habs...without Theo's name. Some people where all over the place claiming that this could indicate that the Habs were about to trade Theo. Don't think they give out clues of things to come on their website roster or newspaper adds. i wouln't read anything into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonus Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 ok... with latendresse cut that just means they cut vandermeer/ivanans and streit/hainsey and we're done. Right? [Edited on 10/2/2005 by simonus] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyRock70 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Originally posted by Leafs SuckSend the two goons and Streit down and you have yourselves a solid team. We'd all like to have a roster full of skill and talent but it is essential to have a fighter on the team. The last thing we need is to have Souray injuring his wrist/hand on some poor bastards' skull.:hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still cringe at seeing 'in my memory's eye' Stéphane Quintal pounding somebody's helmet then sitting in the penalty box with a big bag of ice on his fist & wrist. If players are going to fight, there should be an 'unwritten rule' or something that says that both wear the helmet or both have them off. Kind of stupid to say, I know, but even a 'written' rule (NHL) that says that, in the event of a fight, both players have their helmets off. No way that would happen.

No way that would happen. yeah, especially that fights aren't allowed in NHL rules (it's a penalty). Thou shall not fight, but if thou disregards this and fights thou shall fight without thou's helmet. Not going to happen. The unwritten rule makes sense.

beckham Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Worst on the team. He had only 1 point despite getting a fair amount of playing time. I can't see how he would have earned a spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leafs Suck Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Hamilton is a lovley city. Streit is about to find that out. So Hainsey stays now that Streit has had such a lackluster pre-season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Sheesh, Hainsey and Streit were supposed to push each other and battle for the final roster spot on D. Instead we get: Streit: Hey Ron! We should both be painfully mediocre all throughout camp!" Hainsey: "lol! ur funnie! okayz!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
