They’re at 23. So they don’t need to cutAre we at our final roster now or still guys left to be trimmed before opening night?
I definitely am a fan of Dobes, but starting in the AHL is probably better than backing up in the NHL for Dobes anyway.Too bad Habs brass are scared to lose Primeau on waivers, I think Dobes is already ahead of him .
I think it's more than just this preseason.Roy had a bad pre-season, it happens, he'll be back up at some point this year but I think it's important to show him and set the tone that your spot isn't assured just because you had a good end of season on the big club
And he needs to star showing something this season -Roy had a bad pre-season, it happens, he'll be back up at some point this year but I think it's important to show him and set the tone that your spot isn't assured just because you had a good end of season on the big club
I would have rathered Primeau play a lot in the AHL all those years we had him riding the pine in the NHL.Too bad Habs brass are scared to lose Primeau on waivers, I think Dobes is already ahead of him .
Roy deserved it.Seven guys sent to Laval today.
Mailloux, Roy, Engstrom, Dobes, Condotta, Gignac and Trudeau
I was surprised not to see more jam from Condotta when games got rough and nasty - isn't that his bread and butter?Roy deserved it.
Engstrom is the only one in that list that made a real effort to make the team.
More reason to send him to the AHL, that way he get the most starts.Too bad Habs brass are scared to lose Primeau on waivers, I think Dobes is already ahead of him .
He plays a physical game but never really struck me as a guy that was really nasty. He spent 4 years in the NCAA not fighting, and in Laval he's never had all that high PIMs. Same is probably going to be true for Tuch as well, he'll bring a physical game but not necessarily a nasty game.I was surprised not to see more jam from Condotta when games got rough and nasty - isn't that his bread and butter?
