blaze53 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 So here I am again this time im questioning the Montreal Canadiens' goaltending. Who do you think should be in the backup spot after José Theodore? :hlogo::que::ghg::can::hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 For now Huet. I haven't seen him play yet but if he underachieves I'm fine with Danis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycing Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet because that's what he's paid to do.... Danis and Price are to get all the playing time they can in the minors and juniors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet this year. Danis next year. Danis has to get playing time in AHl this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet. But if he starts to do really well then I wouldn't be surprised to see him traded at the deadline. Depends how tight the playoff race is though. [Edited on 2005/12/9 by Trizzak] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_faerie87 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Definitely Huet. Price and Danis need all the icetime they can get while Halak and Michaud probably aren't NHL-ready yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRock Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I haven't seen Huet play yet, so I'm not ready to compare him to Danis. I will say that Danis did a great job in the role, and the team seems to be comfortable with him in nets, well, except for the Caps game that Saturday night when they hung him out to dry.

TheBigRedC Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I think Danis is ready. Trade Huet and bring Danis in as a full time back-up for the Canadiens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Danis should be playing as many games as possible. It is highly unlikely he would get much action behind Theodore. Allow Danis to grow and improve to starter quality in the Minors so maybe one day he will have #1 starter value if they ever want to move him.

mathieug Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet the backup. I'm looking forward at Huet playing his first game in a Habs jersey. He's a good goalie, no doubt, but how will he handle the pressure that comes with playing here in Montréal? Here's hoping he doesn't choke. Hoping all goes well. That would be best for Huet, Théo and little Danis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_Habs_Fan Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet. Give Danis a whole year in the AHL, and he will me more than ready next year! I think getting a lot of ice time will do him good. (When Huet isn't performing, put Michaud as backup. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Napier Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet of course. That's why they got him. He's a proven NHL goalie. It's a no brainer....next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it, Marko... that's the way it should be until Huet shows that he's not up to the task. :hlogo::ghg::hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarice Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 You have to go with Huet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olematelot Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Huet. Danis has to play to develop, Hamilton is the place for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nam Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Originally posted by MacaskillHuet because that's what he's paid to do.... Danis and Price are to get all the playing time they can in the minors and juniors. My thought exactly, why let Danis sit on the bench when is could play almost every game in the minors. Let Huet sit and play once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
