Confirmed with Link: Alex Belzile Extended (1-Year, 2-Way @ $750K {NHL} / $250K {AHL})

[Kudo Shinichi]

He'll make the team with Danault walking and Drouin likely gone.

If Belzile is on the starting roster for game 1, then the habs are going for a tank year...

Not really many Quebecois free agents to choose from.

no way does he make the top 12 imo.

Nothing against Belzile, but if he makes the Top-12, Habs are in trouble.

not saying he couldn't see some games when injuries hit but he's more needed as a vet in Laval, just a good depth guy to have around.

Belzile should be our 15 or 16th forward or something like that. Behind Poehling amongst last years AHL'ers.

I'm just saying there is a 0% chance we're icing a no-Quebecois team. Bank is opening for someone (Danault, Savard(ew), Drouin return, etc).

Yea, I should have specified that if injuries occur, he will be in the Habs' line-up. I only meant that if he cracks the team out of camp with everyone healthy, then Habs are in trouble.

Cedric Paquette is UFA.

I don't want a young guy sitting in the press box too long. So I'd be happy with him as the 13th forward, while Poehling, RHP, Teasdale, and Ylonen play 18 minutes a night in Laval.

....What the hell happened with this guy? He went from "perfect 4th liner with sandpaper" to "kicked out of Ottawa" seemingly overnight.

for sure unless it's because someone is injured at camp and he's just taking their spot for a few days.

Everyone looks good in a TB lineup. Maybe Paquette was quite upset to be dealt from a SC champion team to a cellar one ?
