We have no reason to do that though. He clearly hated his experience in NA (he already wanted to go back during his time in Buffalo) and hasn't shown he can play well on this side of the pond.

I hope they keep Tobie Paquette Bisson, he's a solid veteran player.

Kind of the quiet MVP in my book, he had to carry a lot of very young partners on defense all season and he made them all look good. Seems like a solid guy off the ice too, he might be captain material at some point down the road.
Solid AHL Vet, sign him and give him the C

Next year's Laval Rocket lineup:
C (3): Beck, Kidney, Gignac, AHL Vet (Maillet?), AHL vet (Stephens?)
LW/RW (8) : Tuch, Farrell, Heineman, Mesar, Xhekaj, Perreault, Simoneau, Condotta
We already have 11 forwards and I didn't count the veterans, which we will need at least 3. I just don't see a place for Davidson.

As long as contract spots are not an issue, having 14 forwards in Laval is a necessity due to injuries and losing players due to call-ups. You are not obligated to play everyone even when healthy and can play some in in TR if you want him getting playing time in a worse case scenario. A player like Perreault showed nothing to indicate he deserves a guaranteed spot every night other than having a contract. Better to have players you chose than the PTO's to fill the line-up when the holes start accumulating.

Just to note that there was a rumor that Maillet will go back to KHL.

That's what I've been hearing for weeks now, TBH I was sure he'd already signed a contrat somewhere . Don't think we can expect him to be back, in any case.

I see. Laval still needs veterans. I hope we bring back Mitchell and Bisson (new captain?) at least. I think we're done with Bourque.

Domingue is signed with the Rangers for next year. I would like Kaskisuo again to be honest.
How about John Parker-Jones ?
Kaskisuo is a nice guy, wouldn't mind him back. We just need to be sure we're comfortable with offering him a NHL contract if Montembeault or Primeau goes down for a while (unless Dobes shows he's ready for a try in the NHL).
JPJ is an afterthought depth. If TR wants him, sign him, but he's not starting in Laval

Habs do some work under a budget. Laval operates under a budget, that's why Belzile isn't back because of the money he would have commanded.

Kaskisuo I doubt.. I have a friend working around the Rocket. He had some trouble to integrate the team, was always using his cellphone, filming etc. This is his feeling that he won’t come back
With the Hughes signing, I assume we'll maybe get 1 UDFA, likely on an AHL deal to start in TR.
The Lions have yet to sign a goalie for next year. In fact they only have Jandric (AHL deal) signed right now.

If you rebuild, they will come.

Nice signing for TR, I think he was at the development camp last year as an invitee.
