Waived: DLR/Pleks Waived

[Habs 4 Life]

Recent health issues might keep him safe and through waivers. I hope we don't loose him.

This and the fact that most teams have this type of player on their depth chart.
I'd be very surprised if he was claimed to be honest. I hope he clears because he could do very well in Laval with Bouchard now in charge.

I think he might consider playing in the khl

 

[ArtPeur]

I voted yes but honestly it's a 50/50 chance. Many teams have injured players and some might want to give him a chance at no cost. I mean we claimed Logan Shaw last year

I tried looking for the sequence but unfortunately all I came up with is a tweet about it -- where its author claims that it was more than a facewash:



Followed the link to the sportsnet game clip and the incident wasn't made part of the highlights.

Tried the GDT of the game, plus several twitter and Y/T searches. Couldn't come up with a PGT. Too bad. Was hoping someone had made a gif of it.

Great time

I hope he gets picked up. He's too good for the AHL but not good enough for the habs. He'd do fine in Detroit for example.

I went to most 30 other teams depth chart, and their regular centermen on their 4th line (or 13th forward) are rarely better or often even worse than DLR. he is gonna be picked up for sure. He's got the size, the skating , the defensive awareness to play at NHL level and he is still very young.

Thanks so much for digging this out. Domi did in fact face-punch DLR. The sequence shows two punches, there was a third but regardless, it shows how DLR backs down from confrontation.

Good luck Jacob ! Detroit knows how to handle and develop Swedes.

 

[habs73]

waiver claim order is based on current standings? I would imagine there was more than one claim on him

 

[Runner77]

Kudos to the posters here who correctly predicted that Detroit would pick up DLR. Good luck to him.

It's based on standings, yes.

He'll get a real shot there and I think he's going to stick

Good for him...

Awful asset management by the Habs.

 

[SquiddFX]

I for one am not shocked he got claimed.

Best of luck to him in Detroit.

 

[Runner77]

So now Domi can get back to punching DLR's face again.

How so?

A pick for him would had been better than sweet nothing. This guy could have a NHL career after all....

 

[habs73]

so puzzling they gave him a two year deal and then didn't play him at center all preseason.

 

[417]

Scherbak next...

But don't worry y'all.

At least we still got Plex lol

 

[DXStriker]

I wonder how many claims there was because DET would have been #1 I think

 

[FloJack]

Booooooo!!!!

I had some hopes for him still, and loved his attitude as well. Not a crazy loss, but I still think there's some untapped NHLer in him.

Good luck DLR!

 

[417]

How so?

Seems pretty obvious

 

[SergeConstantin74]

Really really bad asset management. He's better than some players in the Habs lineup... and still young.

 

[MXD]

Not super surprising, considering... well... Monday.

No, it is based on last year's standing for the first month.
