And from what I understand, he was signed to an AHL deal and not on a PTO. I could be wrong. Because looking at the AHL Transactions page, he is listed as simply added to the Rocket. But for Halbert, they specified that he was signed to a PTO.
Unless of course, the AHL doesn't have the full details yet on whether it's an AHL deal or a PTO and will change it once the deal is confirmed.

i've seen him a few times though I don't remember him as he was a teammate of Koberstein's at Alaska and the team Woods played for this year in the ECHL is the same team Koberstein played for last year.

Lindgren and Weise weren't placed on waivers today, which is the last day teams can put players on waivers in order to clear and be assigned to the AHL in time for the TDL (so they can be eligible for the AHL playoffs).
That means neither of them would be eligible for the AHL playoffs should Laval qualify.

The only player in Montreal that was sent down to be on the Laval roster at the 3PM deadline was Alzner. So he is now eligible to play in the AHL playoffs. They did call him back up immediately after the deadline passed. He is still in Montreal as an emergency call up.
As for Ouellet, because he is on IR in the NHL, he can be sent to the AHL when he gets healthy and he will be eligible for the playoffs.
No one else was sent down as a paper transaction. So Suzuki will not be eligible for the playoffs if Laval qualifies. This does not surprise me because since last year, he's played a lot of hockey. And meaningful hockey at that:
- He and Guelph went deep in the OHL playoffs, where they won the championship.
- Then, they played in the Memorial Cup, where they lose in the final.
- He had a short break because he was at the Habs' developmenal camp in July.
- He then took part in the rookie camp and then the main camp and has played in all 64 games for Montreal this year.

With his hockey canada ties and his age, i wouldnt be surprised if Suzuki is asked to play at the World championship. They like to take some kids.

I thought about it this morning and I was wondering if because Suzuki is on his ELC, maybe that still makes him eligible to join Laval at some point.
I asked Andrew Zadarnowski on Twitter and will await his reply. And possible @montreal knows, too, as he's very knowledgeable when it comes to these things.
One way or another, we'll know for sure.

It's unblieveable that MB didnt go out and acquire some help for Laval or at least some bodies for Montreal in order to keep more players in Laval. The Rocket is in a playoff run and nobody in the org seems to care...
You got rid of Kovy, Scandella, Thompson, Cousins and Peca and only got 1 player in return who is ECHL bound (Luchuk) and you have Folin and Weise up with the big club. Not only that but with Mete's injury I doubt they will send down Ouellet (who's injured too anyway...)
Laval now lost Evans and also Alzner who needs to fill in for injured players in Montreal.
So on D you have Brook, Fleury, Olofsson and up front KK, Poehling, Hudon, Vejdemo, Blandisi and Dauphin. Those are your main players with the rest being mostly depth. There is a ton of guys on AHL deals that will be relied upon, these players arnt even prospects for us. I mean this is just unbelieveable. Laval is basically a one-line team now (KK with Hudon, that's it). They have no depth and both MTL and LAV are extremely injury prone this year. There is no way they make it now.
I read multiple times that Suzuki had to be sent down before the deadline to be eligible. But it's true the rule isn't 100% clear, so you may be right.

Turns out, he won't be eligible. He had to be sent down. Being in an ELC does not bypass that rule.
The players that will sign an ELC after their season at Junior or in Europe is finished can play. So Hillis, Houde, Fonstad, McShane, Ylönen, Harris, and Caufield may be eligible if they're seasons are over and Habs choose to sign them

correct, Suzuki would have needed to sign his ELC next week in March, as it's for players that just signed an ELC, not ones that played a full season already.

Veilleux on a PTO wasn't obscure.
Lynch on a PTO at the start of the year wasn't obscure
McEneny on a PTO wasn't obscure.
Also, if you look around the AHL, every team that has to sign someone on a PTO find obscure players.

The injury updates -
Brook and Hudon injured in practice today.
Blandisi out for weeks from the sounds of it.
Juulsen and Pelletier won't be on the road trip. Juulsen could be getting close to a return
Leskinen and Joe Cox made the trip so should play at some point.
Jevpalovs is back so I assume he plays tomorrow night.
