Happy Birthday/New Year! Awkward time for your big day -- everybody's suffering from gift-fatigue and good luck getting restaurant reservations.

Poehling promoted to Kotkaniemi's line with Cousins.

Vejdemo to play his first game.

Weal demoted and Barber scratched.

All logical moves. Happy with that.

Byron-Thompson-Weal were a pretty good 4th line if memory serves me well.

I look forward to seeing tonight if Vejdemo can fill Byron's role - and look forward to one of Byron, Armia, and Drouin coming back. Would be great if that pushed Cousins back to the 4th line. Cousins-Thompson-Weal is also a decent scrappy 4th line.

No pressure for Lindgren if he lets in anything under 4 goals in 35 or so shots he'd still have better stats than Carey...

Barber playing only a little over 3 minutes last game against Florida is pointless. He'll better serve Laval right now. When I saw his TOI last game, I was almost certain he was going to be sent back to Laval. If he plays another two games, he will need to be placed on waivers again.

Vejdemo would also better serve Laval rather than sit. Other than making NHL money right now, they're wasting his time.

If he a least gets inserted in the line-up and plays on the 4th with Thompson and Poehling, he will at least get a game in with the big club.

That could be a blessing :sarcasm:

Nothing like reading the first ten posts of this thread to give me the ‘warm and fuzzies’ before the next Habs game.

Here’s wishing the posters here a very Happy New Year, and may you cheer up and chill out in 2020!

You bolded a part that I just realized I made a mistake in. I said he needs to play two more games, but he only needs to play one more game to have to go through waivers.

I think it would be a waste of an asset if he needs to go through waivers. Not saying he will get claimed and the Rocket are doomed. But why even get to that part. Just send him down that you can with no risk. He was doing great in Laval before the call up.

Lindgren isn't a rookie. Although he hasn't played enough to call him a young vet either.

Also add Mete in there, who is 21. Kotkaniemi, who is 19.

Youth movement is in effect.

I didn't realize Lindgren's played that many NHL games (15, if I counted correctly). Overall, yeah, the Habs feature lots of 25 and under players. If youth alone could win games, we'd be a contender.
