So Carr is an important piece of the Habs future, but Andrighetto is just another undersized forward that doesn't deserve a call up?
Interesting evaluation, I'm not sure that many people that have watched the Bulldogs would agree.

Halak too was freed up to play for Slovakia... But it was to give ice time to Price, who eventually won the Calder CuP with them.
Question for you.
Did Andrighetto become a more physical player in Hamilton after his 12 game stint in Montreal?
The reason I asked is because I didnt get a chance to see many Hamilton games. I did see Andrighetto avoid physical contact while playing for the Habs. 5 hits in 12 games? That's a pace that is softer than DD and PAP. The Habs do not need that in the regular season, much less the playoffs.
24 goals for Carr and 14 for Ghetto. The Habs already have an assists machine in DD.
I am kind of sad about Tinordi and Bournival situation. Got a bad feeling we won't see neither of them in a habs uniform anymore. They gonna be dealt.
Trading a former first round pick when he is value is lowest is bad asset management. Not MB's style.

Did you even read that they're injured or just come in here slinging wild speculation?

I hope so. But they have had the chance to evaluate him pretty well over the last three seasons. If they judged that he is a borderline NHL d-man, they gonna trade him like they did with Leblanc. The round they were picked doesn't mean anything.
I am sad because these Playoffs would had been great opportunities for both to prove something. I know, the team is stacked now, but injuries happen very fast to key players (see Weber). besides Malhotra, thre is not many forwards available. I don't think PAP is healthy and a good solution anyway. The guy is one concussion away from retirement.
It does. First round picks get extra looks. Tinordi is a 23 year old stay-at-home defensemen, those guys take years to develop.
But in which state of mind does Tinordi play (or has played) this season if we judge by what his father - a former NHL stud d-man - said to the media about his son's use. Maybe, Jared would prefer to play elsewhere - at NHL level -next season.
The left side of Habs D is pretty much set with Markov-Emelin and Beaulieu

I saw Daniel Carr live recently and came away impressed. He has decent size but his grit surprised me. He
laid a couple of nice hits. He is a long shot but 24 goals on a offensively challenged team is impressive none the less.
I wonder if Didier did enough to earn a 2 year contract...

Sorel, 'fant d'chienne!
Playoff reserve players. Training dummies.
AKA, the guys who get to lift the cup if the team wins, but do not get their name on it or a ring (usually), unless they played.
It's a nice experience. I hope Sherbak gets called up for it if his team gets eliminated.
The year Price won the calder cup, Halak was released to play for Slovakia. I could be wrong, but I think Halak even won AHL goalie of the year that year...

If you rebuild, they will come.

That's the only question mark for me....Lernout but no Didier? They have seen enough for Didier to NOT sign him? Or to sign him but no need to be around?

Habs cup - its in the BAG
Could he even be called up if he's not under official contract by the Canadiens?

Lernout is a Bergevin pick, they traded up to get him, he had a good season in the dub, while Didier is a intriguing guy from the Gainey era. I think they might sign him, but seeing him in the black aces would've been a stretch.

Perhaps but in the games I've seen Carr didn't stand out at all. He also looked smallish and skinny but good speed. I saw the last 3 games, he did score on a wicked backhander though.
Can't bring Tinordi up since he's been out since March 15th or so. No update on his injury which was said to be 3 weeks but is already over a month.
Guess we'll find out what management thinks since we currently don't have any coaches under contract for our AHL club next season. If they get re-signed then management is clearly ok with missing the playoffs for the last 3 years and having the worst PP over that span (30th, 29th and 30th) But if they do get re-signed it's because they have done a good job of getting their players to work hard consistently and play a sound defensive game, as just about all the AHL call ups have not hurt the Habs in their own end. On the other hand most have struggled to produce offense and with our top 2 prospects in Scherbak and McCarron, management might want to find a coaching staff that works on helping improve their offensive game.
He and Hudon were the best forwards in the games I saw and last game of the season he was likely their best forward (although Bozon had a good game and almost won it in OT) But it's not like Ghetto was going to dress in any games unless we get a number of injuries. Ghetto's ppg was a hair under Hudon's who was 2nd on the team in scoring, so at least he showed improvement in producing for the Dogs.
yes, hasn't played since March 13th.
I saw the last 3 games and Didier was easily more noticeable then Lernout. Lernout was a bit shaky in the one game, was surprised to see him getting PP time though. Was surprised they called up Lernout but not Bennett, in the final 2 games he was skating so well, man can he move out there.
I don't think so, but perhaps they could do it un-officially, meaning he could just work out with the black aces but not be a call up.

Everyone who wasn't invited is injured I believe, except Tangradi.
