CBJ: R Russell, N Drazenovic. MTL: C Desjardins. Alain Berger on $125 waivers presumably for purposes of mutual contract termination.


Assuming CD has to clear waivers to play in Hamilton.

Don't really mind but why do we send Desjardins to waivers? Did he ask for it maybe to go to another camp?

Desjardins need to pass waivers to be able to play in Hamilton. I think it is also required for Palushaj when he'll be healthy again and St-Denis

There will be tons of these in the coming days. Well, maybe there were a few guys already waived back in Sept before the lockout was official? :dunno: But otherwise, all the teams will have to waive all their minor league vets.

We'll have to waive Palushaj too when he's healthy. And Blunden/Commodore when we send them down. St-Denis, etc. For example. SOP. Berger getting terminated is the only special case.

I can understand the confusion. I think it was bobbymac who tweeted that a few players (including desjardins) were put on waivers for contract termination.

And now I just read from one of our posters that we might lose Desjardins to europe?

Doesn't CD have a standard NHL contract? The habs wouldn't let him just go play in Europe if they felt he was needed in hamilton.

If we lose Desjardins, go for Brad Thiessen till we get something better. But we won't lose Desjardins.

Canadiens waivers: Alain Beger (125$ buyout) and Cedrick Desjardins.


Only Berger is the buyout. CD has to be waived to keep playing in Hamilton.

And Blake Geoffrion, too. I suspect once he is healthy, we may bring him back to the NHL after a conditioning stint. He is too likely to be claimed to take a chance.

Oh, and Commodore in on an AHL contract. No waivers needed. The Habs do not actually own him, he is in camp on trial.

I'd like it if we managed to pick up a decent veteran off waivers to play with the kids in the AHL.
