I'm sure that the Habs will issue a press release soon about Kassian's immediate future. Until then, all bets are off.

Looks like he's been assigned to the AHL. Glad we're still giving him a chance.
I'm happy he cleared. This guy needs a second chance.
Keep in mind the same happened with Semin and he was eventually bought out. Not to say Kassian would turn down the opportunity, but we don't know yet.

True, but it was also reported at the same time that Semin's agent was looking for a fit in the KHL for him, so it did seem inevitable in his case.
I really can't see Kassian refusing the assignment. It would pretty much spell the end of his NHL career after 29 other teams just passed on taking him.
The interesting thing is, IceCaps ply tonight and then they're off for 10 days. Thats one hell of a test for him to see if he'll be able to keep his act together during that time. Maybe the timing isnt a coincidence
Not sure I like what MB is doing here...
If Kassian's sickness was a blood clot or a herniated disk, they'd give him time to heal and welcome him back.
His sickness is alcohol. He's done what is required to heal. A sickness is a sickness and MB might be a bit more compassionate.
I am all for giving him another chance. For me I just hope Kassian can fight the demons that have derailed his life to this point.
