habs rule Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I just saw on tsn that the habs have brought up Danis from the Bulldogs. I wonder why they would not have left him down for as many games as possible. He will be the back up and i think getting as much game time in as possible would be good for him. Is is just because they need 2 goal tenders in practice. They could have simply put up a cardboard cutout of Jose. OK that was a joke settle down. Seriously I think Danis would benefit from as musch game time as possible right now since he may be called on save us later. Anybody else have any ideas. :hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gohabsgo252006 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 It's probably so Danis can start working with Melanson again before the return of the NHL, he can start fine tuning and getting ready for some game action. With how busy the team will be, he will get a couple of games, so I have no problem with this and I"m glad we're not trading for another goalie, I'd much prefer a trade for a forward or a Dman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaos Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 THis is no big surprise...maybe a bit surprising on the timing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycing Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I'm sure they know what they're doing. I'm glad he's up now, because teams can start practicing tomorrow, and that could only benefit him. I'm really hoping that he gets more than just the odd game. However w/ Huet's stellar play and the fact that we're fighting for a playoff spot, I don't know if he'll get that much playing time. Unless of course he manages to steal the games he does start.

RobRock Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 With 26 games in 48 days, there's a couple of back-to-back dates in there that Danis could split with Huet, as well as 3-in-5 and 4-in-6 stretches. I think he'll get a handful of games before Theo is cleared to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonus Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 and you want danis there at practices to reaquaint himself with the team. Also, less risk of injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAK Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Danis will gain from working with melanson on a daily basis. it'll give our other goalies the chance to play more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habs rule Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 habs rule, the pic of a balding Theo. sorry I was not looking at the avatar yeah that is good. I am just so used to seeing the bobble head that I missed it . Really do we need Danis as a goaltender practiseing with the team now? He is not going to play for 2 or 3 games so he wont play with the dogs and all he will do is sit on the bench. If he should get hurt we will go to the next guy Michaud it would be all we could do. You cannot not play a guy cause he might get injured you would never play anybody. I think the only reason for this move is because they want him to feel like a real part of the team. Not a bad idea but if he does not play will he get stale? just my thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway we will probably need to start a second goalie two or three of the next ten Habs have a hard schedule so makes sense having Danis with the team a few days early. This could be a dynamite tandem I think, Danis has a very good save % and both he and Huet have shutouts, something Théo never achieved this year with far more starts. Oh, Finns for the Gold!!!

All I know is I am very pleased to see Danis back up to the team and I hope they will have the same effect as Fernandez and Roloson in Minnie...
