we absolutely can't get any lower. so it's a no lose move.

 

[BLONG7]

Sure............why not...

 

[Gamimenos]

Does he have a Boulet de canon?

 

[McGees]

He won't be there so doesn't matter.
But yes they would if they had the chance.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

another 13th forward french canadian
exactly what this team needs!

I agree

has more potential than paquette and 33 year old perreault, so I put him in a different category.

 

[cphabs]

Only if he is a “defensive” specialist…

Why are people on this board so hyped about this guy?

 

[eklund the clown]

Why are people on this board so hyped about this guy?

Because of his last name, the guy got cut from an expansion team for crying out loud

 

[Jee]

We should give B.B. a chance

Hoping he might become the next Martin St. Louis, Yanni Gourde basically - never drafted, small but put up big numbers in Junior and the AHL, overlooked, then became a very good NHLer?

still a waived 13th forward material tho

Also having more potential than Paquette is like saying can you cook toasts

yeah it seems a long shot at this point. But Martin St. Louis was once waived - by the Flames, after being kicked to the curb by the Ottawa Senators...

1 player in 30 years
He's not St-Louis lol.

For sure it's a long shot. But everyone was saying St. Louis was nothing at the time - lol - or at least St. Louis got the last lol at the entire league and fans that doubted him, lol.

Meh.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Won't pick him up.
We have Lehkonen and Armia as wingers in our 4th line. So he has no chance of cracking the lineup.

could Lehk be moved for a good, solid 5/6 dman?

 

[26Mats]

Meh.

yeah he'd be a waiver wire claim, not someone we used a 1st round draft choice on.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

could Lehk be moved for a good, solid 5/6 dman?

Unlikely since we don't need 5/6 dman. We need a top 4 dman and a 3rd line center.
Strome would be a good add.

 

[JuicyHam]

Last time he got waived I was sure the habs were going to pick him up if no one else did. I'm willing to bet Brooks was our second choice but we'll see what happens this time

 

[The Great Weal]

We already got too many forwards

He's a late bloomer. a bit like Evans, but his stats are better. So there there has to be some potential in him.
