He was not bad at all when they used him, and he scored 3 goals in 14 games. But Habs did not need him at all with all their other D-men healthy and Xhekaj in Laval waiting to come back.guy we got for Jeff Petry
he's not much, don't get any hope.

We just need him to play (hopefully) a #6 role until Mintyukov or (less likely) Luneau get back. Then be the #7. It's just been a terrible season for injuries, we haven't had a single game with a healthy lineupjust the positives…..Gustav is a 6-7 on a .500 or below team. He’s got decent size, skates well and coming into his prime years (traditionally) for NHL D. at 25. Like the Ducks the Habs are loaded with young D…. kids & prospects at all levels, their best overall D is 21 year old Guhle.
I had 4 teams open to picking up Lindstrom on waivers, good luck kid.
I watched Luneau live in junior many times, he’s gonna be a player, good pick in the second round.We just need him to play (hopefully) a #6 role until Mintyukov or (less likely) Luneau get back.

The waiver cost is based on how many years they have been under contract (and goalies are more expensive than skaters).How is the cost of a waiver claim calculated?
First step is getting healthy. Hopefully he gets past the illness/infection quick without lingering effects.I watched Luneau live in junior many times, he’s gonna be a player, good pick in the second round.
