simonus Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 According to sportsnet.ca Yann Danis has been sent to Hamilton. I don't understand. Who are they bringing to replace him? Michaud? A trade? [Edited on 11/9/2005 by simonus] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndmartinxyz Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Halak? I think they may be switching backups a lot to give them each a chance to work with Melanson throughout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Danis's doing well though. I don't think they'd call up an AHL goalie to play when they don't nee one. No one's injured and both our goalies are playing well. No way Huet got back so early and if there was a trade they would have said that rather than Danis got demoted. Hmmm... sportsnet.ca? I'll go check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony_ Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 TSN is also reporting this, oddly enough RDS isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMaxDaddy Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 TSN claims this is to allow them to activate Cristobal Huet . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooster Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 TSN is also reporting the same. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=142459&hubname= Really confusing. The TSN article states that Huet is ready to return. Quite surprising as I had not heard anything about his practising with the team or being close to returning. Odd stuff.

BTH Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I thought Huet was coming back in January or something. Wow, this came a s asurprise. I look forward to seeing Huet play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mont Royale Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Maybe Yann tried to push Theo down the stairs or something, to get more playing time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaos Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I guess Huet must be coming back sooner than anyone thinks? Doesn't make any sense to make a trade. Danis played well enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Notice he didn't need to clear waivers? Man I would like to get this waivers thing str8. I expect Huet is almost ready and that they will bring someone else up until he is. Get Danis ice time that he wont get behind Theo. Jose will get the nod for all the games this month . Oh, and from what I have heard, the Dogs could use the help. [Edited on 2005/11/9 by johnnyhasbeen] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 to be put through waivers, you need to be in a professional league for at least 3 years witchis not dany's case I'm glad to see dany go back to hamilton for he will have lots of ice time. the team is to decide if they recall michaud for a fe games while huet gets back on track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Begin&Higgins Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 After Theo stole the show last night, maybe they realize we just don't need a backup anymore, and that Theo will start the remanider of the Games until Huet is back. GO HABS GO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO HABS GO They still need a backup. What if Theo was to get injured? Knock on wood. Maybe put the pads on Dags? No, someone will be called up.

Rooster Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 This doesn't make sense, they need to have a backup on the bench each game ready to go in if Theo gets hurt (even if they plan on using Theo for the remainder of the month or whatever). Is Huet ready to play against Pittsburgh on Thursday (which he would have to do if Theo gets hurt say in the 1st minute of the game)? Why haven't they announced that they are calling up someone else from from Hamilton at the same time? This may be just a lag in communication (that Huet is ready to go as of Thursday or someone is getting the call up) or there is the possibility of a trade where the Habs would acquire (maybe amongst others) a backup that is ready to go.

Rooster Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 It does in fact look like Huet will be ready for backup duty against Pittsburgh. Strange we never heard anything about his rehab.....well maybe not so strange, we didn't even hear his name during opening night presentations:) http://www.rds.ca/canadien/chroniques/191685.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habscout Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I'm surprised that the Habs didn't at least send Huet down to the AHL for a 2 week conditioning stint before activating him. That would better prepare him to start a game in the NHL, instead of just jumping into a real game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
