Man Kent really shit the bed with our goalie situation , what a putz. 3 goalies, what could go wrong?

Is it really 3 goalies if MSL only plays 2 of them?

 

[Habs]

For all the good things he has done, some of his moves have really stunk lol.

only stinker is Newhook and we see Dach
overall just fine. no GM is perfect. Sam P was perfect

 

[schwang26]

Love him but another dumb recall. This probably won’t work. Make a deal for another vet or call up Hughes. You have to let Dobes develop in the ahl. This move will probably blow up in their faces given how crappy the schedule is.
KH says he’s going to let guys develop in Laval, then does this. Again.

Hughes is a career minor leaguer & was never signed to play NHL games.

Dobes has spent 1.5 years “developing in AHL” - he should see quite a bit of game time IMO

As for the schedule, Habs will be fine.. I’m expecting min 4-of-6 pts to close out Dec - as long as Laine isn’t injured longterm which doesn’t appear to be the case

Are you sure? (from another post I made recently):

Newhook for a 1st and 2nd round draft pick.

Lehkonen for Barron.

Romanov for Dach (basically) is debatable right now, but Dach is looking bad after his knee was torn to shreds.

Reinbacher instead of Michkov, or Leonard, etc, etc.

Signing Slafkovsky to a big contract after he had half a good season.

Napier over Bossy.

Didn’t think Messier would “ever become an NHL player”…

We would have been better off with Allen and Kovacevic as well

It makes no sense not to call up players who have excelled in Laval.
They have developed and need to get their feet wet at the next level sooner than later.

It isn't going to hurt anyone and will give them an idea of what they need to be work on if they have to go back.
Owen Beck keep your head up you are next.

 

[WeThreeKings]

They can't just waive Primeau.. then you are one injury away from Hughes coming up and Laval having no one.

They need another goalie in the mix.

 

[morhilane]

If I'm not mistaken, even though the trade freeze lifts tonight at midnight, I believe you can place a player on waivers as of today. Now I could be wrong about that. If they can waive players today, we'll see around 2PM if Habs place Primeau on waivers to send him to Laval.

If he's not on waivers, it could be one of two reasons:

1 - they have a trade in place waiting for the freeze to be lifted.
2 - they can't place a player on waivers yet and they're waiting to waive him tomorrow.

They can probably waive players at 2pm today since waivers clear 24 hours later and the players stay on the roster until then and after getting waived they can still be kept on the roster too, waiving doesn't necessarily equal sending down.

But they aren't really in any hurry to move Primeau unless they need a roster spot for someone else.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Master has given Dobes a start !

 

[sampollock]

So if KH made so mistakes
Which GM did not make any

That's when we trade to get Primo back!!!

1.5 years in the AHL is more than fine
He should be very motivated.

As for Primo, should expect a trade? Waivers??

Wouldn't they just call up an ECHL goalie?

 

[Bobby Holik agent]

Primeau can be the 3rd goalie until the inevitable.
He dosen't play already who care if he in the stand.

 

[Kennerback]

We would have been better off with Allen and Kovacevic as well

We’re not exactly talking about losing Cam Neely for Barry Peterson here. I think Carrier and any Placeholder G not called Primeau is not far off Allen/Kovacevic.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Agreed, it's obvious MSL has turned the page on Primeau.

Management has . MSL would be party to the decision though.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

They might have something in the hopper and Dobes gets a taste this weekend, before going back when Primeau is swapped for a veteran 3rd stringer.

Nope we can't risk losing Primeau we're just gonna run the 3 goalie carousel again

 

[montreal]

Wonder what the plan will be as Laval just has the 2 games at home vs the Crunch and then the Nucks for 2 at home next weekend but after that the schedule gets rough with only 2 games against sub .500 teams between Jan 10th and Feb 17th.

Laval has a 1 pt lead over 3 teams and then there's the Sens who are 8 pts back of us but have 3 games in hand and we play them twice in the coming weeks.

 

[morhilane]

Wouldn't they just call up an ECHL goalie?

Laval had goaltending issues when Dobes was injured earlier in December. Running with two ECHL goalies down there would be...quite the adventure.

You don't think Primeau clears waivers???

Laine making the trip to FLA, likely means he’s good to play.

 

[NobleSix]

Good. Hopefully that means Primeau is gone. He sucks.
