I expected so much more from RHP but I think his NHL career is in jeopardy based on his lack of production this season.

Unfortunately for him that's probably gonna end his NHL dream.

Yep will largely depend on whether team is experiencing injuries or not by the time he comes back. Opens up a spot for a guy like Heineman or even Kapanen.

Hopefully 1.1M and one way contract steers away the teams if they waive him.

Doubt it, every organization has that type of guy. You never know, of course.. but two bad seasons after the flash in the pan year and his size, it's not looking good.
No way on a contending Habs team is RHP a vital part of the forward group.

Its just 1 bad season. He's expected to be back mid November, and who knows what happens then.

Not unless he played more like year 1 but that looks more and more like an aberration.
Lot of time to lose your standing in an org with a lot of young talent in Laval. Already has size against him.

It's the Habs. By the time he's cleared to return, there will be plenty of spots available because the infirmary will have others in there by then.

Vital is the keyword but RHP can make a niche for himself like Aube Kubel did. Was good enough to dent the Cup.
Really sucks for him personally. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
As for the team, this doesn't really change much. He's a fringe NHLer.

With Demidov, Hage, Beck, Florian Xhekaj and Kapanen coming, six picks in the top rounds over the next two years and the probability that a couple of high priced FAs will be added, RHP won't be the only current forward who won't be a vital player once this team becomes a contender. The reality is that most of our current forwards past the top 5 are, at best, mere place holders. I would suggest that fans refrain from spending big dollars on their jerseys. Times are changing. And they will be changing fast.

Probably the end of his career here tbh. He wasn't even a lock for opening roster and he's having a major injury.
He is AHL bound. Nothing in his game has translated to the NHL. He is the latest version of Charles Hudon
