Bob Hartley had a cool idea of the Rocket playing at the Bell Center for the playoff. Wonder if it's even possible

Would it interfere with the Habs playoffs?
Joking aside, I’d bet they’d sell out.

For a couple of games, why not ?Would it interfere with the Habs playoffs?

What will Hughes do with him ? Call him back and give him some more games at NHL level ? Keep him down in Laval for the remaining of the season ? Trade him soon ? Is he just an AHL level goalie or can he re-gain some confidence to be at least a solid #2 goalie at NHL level ? His story looks very much like Charlie Lindgren’s one.
If they don't have another event at the Bell Centre and the Place Bell isn't already locked in, sure.
If he were called up, they’d have to send Dobes down for sure. This is the first dominant year (so far) for Laval and they need a solid starter going into the playoffs. Trading Primeau would be an extremely bad idea at this juncture if Dobes stays up. I think Primeau is a RFA after this year? I highly doubt he wants to stick around. I don’t see him with the Habs as a back up and I’m sure he doesn’t want to back up Fowler next year. Most likely they let him walk.
Hughes I believe knows that Dobes has to be the go to goalie for Laval going into the playoffs so I expect Primeau back up and Dobes Sent down. Habs need Primeau for depth to finish the season so I doubt he is traded.

I heard an interview clip with Primeau on RDS. He said that his confidence level was the same before and after having been sent down to Laval. It was never a problem. And he is praising the players in front of him and the Laval's system…. It’s kind of a slap in the face for his teamates in MTL and MSL in particular.
His contract is over May 31st in the KHL.
