Waived: [MTL] G Cayden Primeau waived by the Canadiens

[sinDer]

Montreal will win against Florida with Dobes in the net…

As a Panthers’ fan living in Montréal, I’m not ready for this. It’s gonna be a tough day…

 

[EveryDay]

55 games in the NHL in his career and a career .884 sv%. Habs fans are definitely hoping Fowler lives up to the hype.

Or Dobes.

 

[OmniSens]

Sadly, I can see the Sens make a claim with Fosberg and Ullmark out to injury.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Wouldn't mind him as back up in Columbus

It's a weird time of the year and it's a matinee to boot. No result will surprise me for this one.

I think primeau needs a reset in the ahl and then you can facilitate a deal from there. Therefore, he clears and then he eventually gets dealt.

I can't see a team giving him a direct ticket to the nhl right now. It's no exaggeration that he's arguably been the worst goalie in the nhl this season.

 

[Jumptheshark]

I can see a team grabbing him and trying to send him down to their farm team

 

[Jee]

he's not very good, he'll clear

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Well actually I guess only way he gets claimed is so a team can waive him again to attempt to get him on their minor team.

If that happens, he will end up in Laval.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

Someone must take a shot, It cost absolutly nothing to test the former best Habs prospect for some people

Figments of your imagination

Or Dobes, Volohkhin...

Primeau was already dropped to our 3rd goalie prospect in summer 2023.

 

[Rebels57]

Hope the Flyers claim him.

Won't happen. I don't think Laval wants to run Hughes/Cavallin all year.

 

[Legend123]

Ah primeau, you only pretend to be a goalie

 

[BlueSeal]

WELCOME TO LAVAL!!!

 

[Hostile Offer]

Primeau had a pretty good stretch last year which led Allen to be traded but he's been such a hot mess this year I just can't see anyone claiming him on their NHL team.

 

[Czechboy]

That is dobes music. I hope he gets a nice 5 games on NHL before returning to the AHL. Then next year is the backup.

Win or lose.. so happy he gets his debut today.

 

[samsagat]

I think primeau needs a reset in the ahl

He had multiple AHL resets in his career and here we are, still not good enough for a backup role in the NHL, at 25...

 

[Moose Head]

Showed some promise last year, but is quite easily the worst goalie in the NHL this season. His stats are 70’s expansion team ugly.

Hindsight is 20/20, but should have just kept Allen for this season, but I see why based on their play last season why they kept Primeau instead. I don’t think anybody thought Primeau would regress so badly.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Will not be suprised if Bruins pick him nothing good in the farm and he still young maybe goalie Bob can do something with him

 

[Sam de Mtl]

I have been a Primeau believer, but he shat the bed so hard this year, no case can be made for him anymore with this team, this year. He may rebound by rebuilding his confidence and I think he can make a career (Fucale almost did and was much worse, Lindgren became a starter), but it will a winding road for him. It appears it won't be with Montreal afterall.

Good luck to him.

They can't, MTL will claim him back.
