He was a good AHL vet and decent injury plug.

I wonder if he got told they would pencil him in the NHL.

Good for him. Guy has persevered and stuck with it

 

[BLNY]

Best wishes to him. Solid AHL vet.

He finally makes it in at 31yold and now gets a 2y contract. Congrats Alex!! Great story

 

[Kiss Under the Guy]

I would have liked him back with the habs, but in the end, I'm happier for him he received a contract he deserved

 

[TGWL]

I'm glad he got a 1 way contract for the first year. Dude kept with it and earned getting a full NHL paycheck whether he plays on the NYR roster or not.

Greath AHL player, not sure he'll ever stick in the big league though. I wish him well.

he managed to get a one way deal for 1 years kuddos

 

[Bouboumaster]

He worked his ass off and deserves everything good happening to him

He will never play anywhere else than on the 4th line, but he's a good 4th liner with a great motor

Love this move for the New York Rangers.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

Wish him the best on the Rangers. Guy has had to work hard for everything.

 

[bl02]

Good for him. Seemed to always play pretty hard when I watched the Habs

 

[WatchfulElm]

So basically, Habs lose Belzile for nothing because they have to keep a spot in the line-up for Hoffman and Armia. Not only is Belzile a better player, but he's also way cheaper.

Badly managed assets, sadly.
