habscout Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 (edited) I noticed this article about a player at the Memorial Cup who was an unsigned invitee to the last training camp: Jamie Tardiff. http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/Junior/20...591019-sun.html The article mentions that Hamilton had offered him a 2-way contract, which I believe means he could have been sent down to the ECHL at a lesser pay. It's a decent way for the Habs to evaluate a fringe player without having to offer him a standard pro contract and taking up a slot on the team's 50-man "roster". I don't recall any comments last September from those here who watched the rookie training camp about Tardiff. If anyone remembers anything or can find a posting [yes, I already tried the HW search, which had 3 good references to him], I'll appreciate reading your comments. Maybe this guy still has a future with the Habs, or with another organization, if he has a strong showing the Memorial Cup.
