Waived: Adam Brooks Placed on Waivers (Claimed by Vegas)

[habdynasty]

Lucky guy gets to go to a good team

 

[Tyson]

Wow another team thinks he is an NHL player.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Nice, bye.

Next: Cedric Paquette, please.

 

[Justin11]

So Brooksie is gone. Wish him luck

 

[sheed36]

Wow another team thinks he is an NHL player.

If given more of a chance to play he's still probably better than Paquette at this point.

 

[JuicyHam]

Good for him. I don't think it was going to work out in Montreal but it was worth a try

 

[1909]

He was a better option than Paquette, or so it seemed.

No he was not. And I really want Paquette gone.

 

[sheed36]

How long now before Niku is placed on waivers since Dom doesn't seem too interested in playing him either.

Right now, I am praying Petry will see the light and go on the injury list for as long as it is possible. Let's play Niku. He cannot do worse. And let's try Norlinder once and for all.

 

[Vachon23]

Bye !

 

[Sterling Archer]

Bit of an overreaction in this case no ?

Is the camel collapsing after another piece of straw is put on his a back an overreaction?

 

[Treb]

Vegas currently have Marchessault, Carrier, Patrick, Karlsson, Pacioretty and Eichel out.

Their bottom 6 is full of unproven guys like Leschyshyn, Rondberg and Cotter. He will have more of a chance there until the guys come back.

 

[Crusher117]

Terrible asset management by the team. We have an abundance of wingers but lack center depth. So what do we do, waive and lose a young center.

That young center was mediocre. Better give ice time to Poehling. We now know that perreault is gone for a good while with a second surgery to his eye. And Paquette could easily become forward #13 when he is back.

 

[Schwang]

Laval could've used him. It's unlikely Poehling goes down again.

I know he struggled but kid did show some promise when he was with Toronto and the Marlies.
Rather have him as the 13th then Paquette to be honest. Paquette is only good for getting himself in the penalty box cuz he's always 1 or 2 seconds behind the play.

True! But he didn't have size or speed. We're lacking in both. But it seemed he had hockey sense - another area we're lacking...

Habs have also Dauphin and Vejdemo to play as 5th centermen.

 

[IceNeophyte]

Not sure about that. Vegas is icing a LOT of AHL players right now and seems to be sending an NHL player to the ER every game. I read this as a desperation move to man a game roster without closing down the AHL team.

real soon I hope, as we badly need him in Laval.

 

[BargainBinSpecial]

No he was not. And I really want Paquette gone.

I think everyone knows that Cedric "the Entertainer" is pretty much done. It's the classic BargainBin discount deal that ralely pans out. Perry was really a big piece that was lost in the off-season. We shouldn't worry though because Cedric is as good as gone come next July.

Wait wasnt Perreault just missing 3 weeks?

Yes, we are all mourning his departure…….

Waivers or trade deadline…..he’s not here all season

 

[Habby4Life]

No loss, I did not see anything that suggested he was worth keeping.
