He played the pig.

At this point why not just waive Alzner. The Hans aren’t close to being contenders and we’re no where close to spending to the cap in the next few yearsI still think Benn is going to get moved or waived at some point...
And you probably won't be able to trade the guy if he's a healthy scratch game 1.
There's some NHL experience in Laval with Olofsson, Kulak and even Lernout.
Those posters were looking to get mad at Bergevin for no reason. It was a great trade from the start. Reilly was a college standout while Olofsson wasn't. I don't like this trade, but it isn't that big of a deal.I don't know Olofsson so can't comment. But management must have seen something in him they like. I remember Reilly trade was laughed at also on here but same posters are reporting he had a great camp. So, who knows?
With Kulak, Olofsson, Ouellet, there's enough NHL experience there to give Juulsen and Mete some time in Laval.
Olofsson has played 56 NHL so far...on a very deep defense.Olofsson never did anything useful when I watched the few wild games. Of course I havent watched too much of him, but even Wild fans say that he sucks a lot. I liked Reilly A LOT more. I also dont think Bitten is a long shot to make the nhl. With his speed and motor, he could earn himself a bottom 6 role on a team in the future.
What's would be the point of waiving Alzner other than to send him a message?At this point why not just waive Alzner. The Hans aren’t close to being contenders and we’re no where close to spending to the cap in the next few years
We have to Many young guys who won’t be making a lot of money. Cap space is not an issue
Alzner is barely an NHL d man. He’s not needed
Olofsson had 2 shoulder surgeries and just missed preseason due to a shoulder injury?
Who’s in charge of our nhl scouting currently?
I liked Reilly a lot more and we gave up a lot less for him. If he is an NHL player, they could have just picked him up and trade Benn for a 7th or something. Bitten is 4 years younger, I would hope that Olofsson is closer to NHL ready.Olofsson has played 56 NHL so far...on a very deep defense.
He's a lot like Reilly, caught up in a numbers game in Minny.
He's got skills, he's can skate really well, move the puck up quickly which falls in line with what the Habs want from their D this year, he's got good size and pedigree.
He just needs more consistency & to be more assertive.
I really liked him at the WJC's for Sweden a few years back.
He's an NHL player IMO.
I can't say the same for Bitten.
You’re a prettt smart fan, do you really think shock treatment will work for alzner? He has no tools for how the NHL is played nowWhat's would be the point of waiving Alzner other than to send him a message?
No team is going to pick up that contract and there's no way they're sending him down to Laval.
I think they're trying to give him a "shock treatment" to pick up his play.
But for me, it's Jordie Benn's that's on his last legs.
All of Ouelett, Schlemko, Olofsson & Kulak are better players than he is.
Huh. He was on waivers and we have room without giving up Bitten who still has potential. Wtf.
What's would be the point of waiving Alzner other than to send him a message?
There are contract number limits.Habs already have too many players so it's a case of move out one to get one back. Happens all the time.Wtf. Could have just taken him off waivers.
Where does Will Bitten fit on our prospect depth chart IYO?I liked Reilly a lot more and we gave up a lot less for him. If he is an NHL player, they could have just picked him up and trade Benn for a 7th or something. Bitten is 4 years younger, I would hope that Olofsson is closer to NHL ready.
I don't disagree...i'm just spit balling here.You’re a prettt smart fan, do you really think shock treatment will work for alzner? He has no tools for how the NHL is played now
He reminds me of wade redden He’s done
You must be referring to them waiving Zack Smith?OH **** we Ottawa now
