Just noticed Darren Dietz playing for Kazahkstan at World Championships.

He's had 3 strong years in the KHL offensively, wonder if he'll get a shot soon in the NHL.

He had 5 points in 13 games for us when he got his shot with the big club. I was susprised they never signed him to another contract

Imagine if Markov joins the Habs’ coaching staff one day? It’ll be full circle.

I'd trust him to coach the PP and defense. Its not like things could get more disorganized.

I agree, I thought they'd bring him back for another season at least. His offense warranted another look.

Blues notebook: De la Rose signs with team in Sweden

Jacob de la Rose’s short and unspectacular tenure with the Blues has ended.

The 26-year-old center is returning to his native country, signing a three-year contract with Farjestad BK of the Swedish Hockey League.

“The idea of moving home has been with me for a while, and now I felt that the situation was right” de la Rose told the Farjestad website.

DLR headed back to Sweden. His mom was diagnosed with cancer over a month ago so he's going back home.

 

[montreal]

that sucks for DLR, hope his mom can beat cancer.

I saw that Audette is going to the KHL, was a bit surprised as he had a great year in Liiga, thought some NHL team might be interested for AHL depth.

Also former Hab Kenny Agostino is also leaving for the KHL.

Hahaha, I used to mix up Nesterov and Kucherov when they were both Tampa property.

If only Kucherov was the one Habs traded for instead of Nesterov when they dealt with Tampa.

De la Rose has moved home to Värmland and will play for Färjestad coming season.

De la Rose has moved home to Värmland and will play for Färjestad coming season.

I read that he turned down more money to be close to his mother, who was diagnosed with cancer a few weeks ago.
