Confirmed with Link: Carrier to the Habs for Justin Barron
- Thread starter Viqsi
- Start date
For the xenophobia obviously
I am glad to see Carrier go but for what?
Viqsi
"that chick from Ohio"
Well, he's five years younger than Carrier, so we already know he won't be getting much in the way of ice time.
I am glad to see Carrier go but for what?
Why? I thought he’s a solid player.

Feels like a precursor to another deal to clear cap. I’m guessing Cozens is here soon.

Since Jan 1, 2024
Fabbro signed, waived, lost
Wedgewood, signed, traded
Carrier signed 1 Jul, traded
Tomasino signed in September, traded for next to nothing.
Now we have MDG on waivers when he might get lost for nothing considering this trade.
Four players signed since March either traded or waived away.

Habs fan coming here. I don't know him at all. Is he a top 4 dman, or 3rd pairing?
Justin Barron have offensive flair, bit this is difficult to play in his own zone. I hope for you guys he is going to developp into a better defenseman cause he is still young

Carrier was a 2nd pairing guy for us for quite a number of seasons.
If you can staple him to a defensive LHD, hopefully with a bit of size, he should be ok. He's a bit on the smaller side and in our current system was allowed to roam the ice without a care in the world. (Not him, I don't think. Our idiotic system.)

I like this deal. Neither are all that good, but Carrier’s contract sucks. He honestly didn’t do bad here.
IMO Carrier had negative value, thrilled to see him moved. Agreed this feels like a precursor to us taking on cap

We're going 100% lefty. It's genius.

Well, he was drafted by someone else. So there is a chance he'll be on the ice 25 minutes a game.
So Wilsby scores a goal and a player gets traded. 
Is that like when a bell rings an angel gets their wings?

Mr. Trotz,
On behalf of the fanbase after multiple players signed since March then lost in the last nine months ... Fabbro, Wedgewood, Carrier, Tomasino ... this flag from the Patton museum now applies.
At least last place isn't the "mushy middle".

That but more the tax implications, as well. As in, does he take an unintentional big paycut? I know it’s been discussed a lot, but I’m curious about this specific deal.
