Ejov getting the full-time goalie coach role suggests that Marciano will eventually get the interim tag removed as Montreal's goalie coach.

 

Meanwhile, UFA forward Jake Chiasson has officially left the organization, signing with the New Mexico Goatheads.  (Yes, that's a real team name.)

For the curious, I was, it is an ECHL team in Rio Rancho, New Mexico (about a half hour north of Albuquerque).

I always chuckled at the South Carolina ECHL Greenville 'Swamp Rabbits'.

23 yrs-old - LHD - 6' 03", 210 Lbs ... spilt his first pro season between ECHL (33 games) and AHL (32 games) in the Sharks organization ... all 72 games in the AHL last season

Hache is a nice add as a depth piece.  It was surprising he signed so quickly with Laval, a team that probably doesn't have a roster spot for him for every game.  Makes me wonder if he was promised a third-pairing spot or they're giving him a pretty good AHL salary to be a 6/7 guy.

Do The Rocket or Lions de Trois-Rivières need a "rat" ... Mavrick Rousseau-Hamel is 20 years old and has gone undrafted three times.

I don't think he'd be an option for Laval.  Maybe a bottom-liner in Trois-Rivieres at most.  He's eligible for an overage year in the Q but that's not the type of player who typically gets one.
