Why do people want to keep Grenier?
He's considered a vet, we should be signing vets that are top 6, not bottom 6 like Grenier.

Bring the best Laval'ers boys as possible. Even why not Sam Poulin one day...I would sign J-S Dea for next year.
I'm going with
Peca - Poehling - Belzile
JS Dea - Evans - Suzuki
Kevin Roy - Vejdemo - Weise
Verbeek - Teasdale - Alain
*Jevpalovs, Pezzetta, Waked
Kulak - Brook
Ouellet - Fleury
Alzner - Sklenicka
*Walford, Koberstein, Tyszka
Primeau - McNiven - LaCouvee

Wow you guys really think Poehling will be in Laval next year? I say not a chance.
It's only 1 game. Top 6 AHL would be better than 4th line NHL for him IMO. If he makes the NHL top 9 sure (which would mean one of Danault/Lehkonen/Drouin/Byron probably gets traded for some LD).

With Folin signing (and who knows if Benn will be extended), the Habs may just be ensuring that if Juulsen isn't ready to crack the Habs out of camp, he can start in Laval.
Imagine Laval's RD if Juulsen starts there: Juulsen, Brook, Fleury.
Evans on the 3rd line?let's say mtl - laval d-corp :
[UFA] Weber(C)
Kulak Petry(A)
[UFA] [UFA]
Reilly Folin
Mete Juulsen(A)
Romanov Fleury
Ouellet(C) Brooks
Scklenicka Lernout
Alzner
With the third unit been totally open I would try to force a competition between the laval top 4d at least 3/4 of the season (to be ready for playoff push), until then i would hire young guy ufa or trade for rfa like Joel Edmundson with picks or Byron.
Juulsen been paired with Mete to lead Laval to the series could definitely be a boost and if habs do not make the cut for the playoff next year, well the young crew can definitely have their own run in ahl series. That's what i call a win-win situation for them actually. With Bouchard things are going to be pretty something if he can have this lineup in hands.
If he can also have a forward group like that :
Vejdemo Poehling Suzuki
Audette Belzile Grenier
Jevpalovs Teasdale Evans
Deslauriers Verbeek Alain
Pezzetta Shinkaruk Waked
with our 2 young goalies
Primeau
McNiven
i guess he can produce few miracles. Am I off the chart or is it realistic to preach such vision? Should Habs shops for d-man this summer??
yeah but not in a concern of depth chart spot. On ly to give teasdale and jevpalovs a good scorer to see what they can bring on the table. the second unit could be our 3rd unit too depend on how well the evans unit can perform, and since they are in laval a french connection line is also a wink to their culture!Evans on the 3rd line?
He was our best player in the AHL first year, why wouldn't you play him on the first line he earned it and I'm sure he will be better because he probably learned alot. This is a good way to ruin prospectsyeah but not in a concern of depth chart spot.
