Recalled/Assigned: 21/02/2020: Karl Alzner Recalled by Montreal (Emergency Recall)

[Phil Parent]

If I was Alzner I'd reply f*** OFF to this.

But I'm not, and if we can be serious, we did make him filthy rich despite the fact we also made him ride a bus for two years. I'm sure he'll make the most of his opportunity.

You wouldnt ride a bus for 4 years and 23 million.....thought so!!!

 

[Phil Parent]

I'd clean it after riding it too.

 

[kgboomer]

He's coming back to block pucks and make snow angels on the ice.

I called this!! Wasn't being serious though... yet here we are

4 D injuries and a D trade tend to screw things up

Karl Nhlzner

For shit and giggles, let's say we lose another D, who's the next guy on the depth chart after Alzner on the left side?

Probably sign Franky Boo to a PTO

Leskinen/Olofsson. I think if we were still in the race either of them would play ahead of Alzner, but this was a favour to a veteran and they'd rather have those guys playing in the AHL anyway.

They can learn how to score on our net from him.

 

[Tyson]

He actually played well, better than Kulak or Reilly have done all year.

 

[CHarlie]

Karl Alzner......what a great trade deadline addition!!!!

 

[MasterD]

Liked his play last night, calm and effective. Better then the plugs MB got us these last two years.

Played better than expected,good for him, didn't embarrass himself at least.To be fair,Ottawa looked terrible.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

He actually played well, better than Kulak or Reilly have done all year.

Seriously, was going to say the same thing.

He played mistake-free hockey and even had some nice looks offensively where he generated some chances by throwing the puck at the net and generating some rebounds.

Honestly with the season being what it is, why not just play him the rest of the way to showcase him? Best case scenario we can trade him at the draft, worst case is that he brings us down a couple pegs towards Lafreniere.

Olofsson LD
Fleury RD
Brook RD

and then you have to sign guys to NHL contracts

 

[Tyson]

Impressive that you think ahead like this...I bet our GM isn't even thinking of this "what if" scenario

 

[FloJack]

I'd clean it after riding it too.

Didn’t you play in the Q? You have first hand knowledge of how dirty a hockey team bus can get, no?

He's gotten faster.

But I have to see him against BBC etter competition before I feel comfortable with him back there.

Depends of the team. Some they would get pretty dirty mainly when we rode the bus in Midget AAA, some other they expected us to keep it as clean as possible, I mean they wouldn't make us clean it, but we were expected to not litter.

Jos Canale in Sherbrooke was one who wanted us to be good citizens outside the ice and take care of the bus and such, really emphasized that, he made a big deal out of preparing us for adult life, and then he went mental one night in Rouyn and he was arrested for taking swings at the audience with a stick. The perfect "do what I say, not what I do" moment.
