I wonder if they play him in the season opener? Brooks having an outstanding showing against us to start the season would be a habby thing to do.

Eh, best of luck to Adam Brooks. But next time Bergevin tries to sneak a knuckle dragger through waivers, I'm claiming him and letting him loose on Suzuki and Caufield just for the revenge factor.
Panthers sign Jumbo. Habs claim Brooksy.
Good to see our divisional rivals dumpster diving for our hand-me-downs.

Remember, though, both teams are MUCH deeper than the Leafs are...

Wish him the best, but doubt he will be much more there than he was here. Another body for the 4th line
Good luck Brooksie.
Silver lining was that he was a victim of almost all our depth forward candidates playing so well in the pre-season.
Montreal got such a good look as they got wrecked they wanted a piece of that action I guess.

At some point in the near future (maybe month), I wouldn't be shocked to see him back on waivers.
I'm sure they will find some space for Hoffman and/or Byron when they're fully healthy and I think Brooks would be the odd man out with the amount invested that they have in Poehling.

Brooks would have been solid for the Marlies on the night I have tickets.

Brooks still has some upside and on a reasonable term. Also he's not that old. A lot of late bloomers are appearing in the NHL
Didn't like him being on waivers over some other guys or some guys are getting FA preferential treatment
Good kid. Hope it works out for him
Wouldn't surprise me if he outscores and outlasts Simmonds in NHL this year

We signed him as a FA, and if he was on waivers would definitely get claimed. I liked brooks as well, but too many guys that are either younger bigger faster or more skilled have passed him on the depth chart.We kinda did the same thing though.....we went through the dumpsters in Kanata for Amadio.

Glad to see Brooksie get a fresh start

Brooks would have made the Marlies stronger for sure, probably would have been their #1C.
It’s unfortunate to see him go, but that’s part of the waivers game, to give these guys an opportunity. Best of luck to him. We’ve lost marginal depth, but that’s all.
