Confirmed with Link: Canadiens Acquire Noel Hoefenmayer from the Oilers for Jacob Perreault (minor league deal)

[jrom]

still don’t get why they traded Légaré in the first place

 

[EXPOS123]

What a useless pickup he was - good riddance

 

[Habs]

Uh Kent? Anything besides scrubs coming our way?

He is pretty solid at the AHL level, another strong veteran

why are you so positive lately? I don't like it

He was traded for some dummy named armandeau or some shit.

Mysak was traded for Perreault.

That said, Hoefenmayer has more points in the AHL than Perreault, Mysak, Legare combined.

However, Legare is in the NHL right now for some reason.

We have our own “The Hoff” now

This is a very good understated move for Kent Hughes.

At this point our young guys like Beck, Mailloux, and company need all the experience playing tense games that they can get.

And in this trade Hughes not only accomodates a player's wish (Perreault wanting out), but also adds depth and a good AHL veteran on the defensive side of the puck to potentially help our young guys get those playoff games in.

So yeah, I really like this move.

Sort of to your point I think, I like that he’s making room up front. Mesar will be back next month. Give room to the actual hopefuls

Inb4 this trade is used to speculate on every LD in the system being traded

Actually, it's to free up a forward spot because Demidov is coming over early.

 

[Habs Icing]

Those two are in their 20s!? Jeeze, they look like they are ready to move into a nursing home.

Great question...I have to change that mindset

 

[River Meadow]

Noel Hoefenmayer is a horrible hockey name.

Guaranteed bust.

 

[Estimated_Prophet]

end of a mistake.

Mysak has done nothing with the Gulls, so hard to call it a mistake when it is just an exchange of dirty socks.

 

[McGees]

Hmmm.
probably not even worth a comment...so carry on.

What does Légaré have to do with any of this?

What does Légaré have to do with any of this?

There was a couple of trades last year where basically we ended up with Perreault & Duranleau, moving away from Mysak & Légaré. A year later they’re all gone and Légaré would probably still be playing on the bottom 6 / PK

Can’t believe a meaningless trade has 5-pages / 64-posts….

 

[HuGort]

Perrault was good goal scorer in junior. Just couldn't make jump to pro game

Late to the party....and was clearly answered surely...but while I like Hoefenmayer...where the heck does he play? That D line in Laval is stacked beyond stacked.

 

[montreal]

Perreault was mostly terrible, I wasn't a big Mysak fan as I thought he had a huge hill to climb but he was a good bit better then Perreault.

Plus you have Jandric who is on a tear of late with 12 pts in the last 9 games for 3R, I thought he looked solid when he was up last year.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if Hayes is injured after tonight's game.

 

[Max2]

Coming soon the pairing of : Hoefenmayer-Reinbacher

 

[Gillings]

Those two are in their 20s!? Jeeze, they look like they are ready to move into a nursing home.

I don't think Perrault has a mother, because, what mother would ever let their son show up to picture day looking like THAT!

It would have less posts if people who aren't interested in the trade would stop posting they aren't interested in the trade.

 

[StCaufield]

RDS and TVA sports will talk about this trade for a few days

There’s already 3 pages on this here lol
