based on what non-habs fans are saying about DF he's absolutely better than X

Or they could just be wrong. Remember when we all wanted to waive Kulak instead of Mete and that Mete could be decent elsewhere? How did that turn out?

Hughes... For shame. After my other team botched the claim, we had a free asset ripe for the taking.

Shocked we didn't pick him. And again, not because he's a stellar future star...I think he reached his ceiling. But because it would give us options.
Maybe not, though I think he is right now.
But Fabbro plays the right side, which would have allowed Guhle to move back left, which seems to be something many fans want.
And Xhekaj could use big minutes and responsibility in Laval.
Finally, Fabbro might have helped help once Savard is moved.
But we can still send Arber down if we bring Mailloux up.

Barron's been scratched for four games. It's more likely they don't see Fabbro as better than Struble or Xhekaj.

I thought The Habs would claim him but maybe HuGo have trade talks going on which makes DF not necessary.

If we didn't have 7 dmen he would have been claimed. They want to keep giving Barron chances for whatever reason which is why he got a 2 year contract instead of 1.
Fabbro isn't good enough to make us take on his 2.5 million cap hit and send down Xhekaj/Struble.
I think we'll make a trade with the Kraken where we send out a dman and get Borgen. Hopefully can swap Armia with Tanev too.

The guy was part of the healthy scratch rotation with us and incredibly soft for a big man. He was a fine #7 dman but obviously had no future here. Good for him for playing well but I'd say it's more likely that he's on a great stretch rather than him turning from a journeyman into a stud defensive dman overnight.

So you think both the Habs and Jets failed to see the stud defensive dman he is and that this is not just a really good stretch for him?
I hope they re-sign him to a big multi year contract.

Very surprised we didn't put in a claim. My guess is that they didn't want to send anyone down but I'd disagree if that was the thought, there's a few who could use more time in the AHL (Struble and Arber come to mind)

Go Habs!
A pick was used in this summer's draft to move up in the first round and select Hage.

Dach is a 23 year old center with size who can carry the puck. Arguably our best player just 13 months ago. If not best, top 2-3 for sure. Patience!
Remember when we traded Turgeon for Corson cuz Turgeon had a slowish start in 1996-97?
Or on the other side, how we fleeced Minnesota, grabbing Bobby Smith because they were impatient with his slowish 10 game stretch to start 1983-84?
