Recalled/Assigned: Bourque clears waivers. Sent down to Hamilton.

You guys keep saying he's a playoff warrior but I only remember him being good in the series Vs. the Bolts and then nothing else after that. Are you guys dreaming?

We've been saying the same song ever since Bork got to Montreal. He's lazy, he's a bum etc. That's what? 4 years ago man? The guy has not produced at all ever since he got here. And we traded Mike freakin' Squid for this guy. Sure, squid had his faults, but hell he sure put the puck in the net and he had playoffs performances LIGHT years ahead of anything Bork ever showed.

This guy is going to get traded. Count on it. He's never playing for the Canadiens again.

Vs the rags he had a hat trick one game

Perfect.

He is well suited for the AHL and since he is having such great success there, he should be a Bulldogs lifer.

Well said. Once you bury someone in the AHL, you don't dig them back up to a zombie life.

Maybe but the only reason Bork is in AHL is because of his contract. If he had a 1M/yr salary he would've been picked up!

They could have retained salary and basically make it a low cap hit pick up, but guess what?

There are 2-3 teams who have poked around on Bourque but Montreal will likely have to take back a contract they don't want #Habs

Rene Bourque asked for trade last season and #Habs chose to keep him. Another yr on contract doesnt help chances of being moved

I guess Bourque could be traded around the trade deadline...
