Confirmed with Link: Habs Sign Cody Goloubef to a PTO (Update Oct 4: Released from PTO)

[Adam Michaels]

Laval only I imagine

At training camp, Goloubef is part of the third group, which is mostly the AHL guys. So it gives you an idea what the Habs brought him in on a PTO for. After the word that Brook would be out for months, it made sense why they brought in Goloubef, another RD.

A few years ago, Simon Depres was brought into camp on a PTO. But he was signed to an AHL deal to play for Laval.

Goloubef may end up being signed to an NHL deal at league minimum just in case injuries on defense gets out of hand and they will need him to play in Montreal. But then again, they can sign him to an AHL deal, and if they end up needing him, they can then sign him to an NHL deal.

Depres few years ago big name

Yes we need depth on the RD in Laval and he’s a guy that have NHL experience if where really in trouble with injuries.

 

[Garbageyuk]

I've watched hockey for almost 25 years and I had no idea this person existed.

[CheldishGamibno]

Did he even play a pre season game? lol

 

[Schwang]

Probably not in great shape, so they released him

or the guy doesn't want to play at AHL level in Laval. ???

Maybe. He may go to Europe

Laval's D-corp is quite thin.

Then a fight between Amorosa, Beaudoin, Neill and Dello. I don't see how Xhekaj would have had much chance to pierce that. That's if we carry 8D in the NHL.

Even in the ECHL, you already have Beaudoin (the other one), Brodeur, Gagnon and Galipeau. With the guys sent down from Laval they will be pretty full.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Didn't he sign a PTO with Laval?

It was said that he did sign a PTO with Laval. But I had asked Marcotte and he told me he was looking at his options. And it seems he opted to look elsewhere.

Maybe he has offers in Europe.

 

[Scintillating10]

Habs probably pick up somebody else for Laval

I saw on twitter where it was said he signed a tryout with Laval but had to attend to personal matters so he would miss the start of camp. The person said they spoke with the Habs pr department, although it's not like they would say he's sitting at home wondering if he wants to ride the buses all year or not so I guess we'll see.

Yea, I asked Zadarnowski, who mentioned this. And I also asked Marcotte, who said he was looking at his options at what to do next.

Next year, hopefully, we'll have a huge influx: perhaps Harris, Struble, Guhle, Xhekaj.

But for this year, don't know why we didn't claim Juulsen and Fleury and try to send them down.

Because the initial team could have just claimed them back.

This year corps is fine when Brook comes back.

True, but sometimes a team doesn't do that. For example, after we waived Scherbak and he was claimed by the Kings, the Kings later sent him down and we didn't claim him.

Because we didn't want him back. Pretty sure Seattle wants to keep Fleury. Maybe Florida wouldn't, but I'm still inching towards yes.

We also have limited contract space remaining, so can't claim too many AHLer.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying, I don't know why we didn't want them back. They both need to play and get development time. I was not surprised at all they each didn't make NHL rosters this year. But I would like to see what they can do with more AHL seasoning in the future.

But again, as I've said, so do Seattle/Florida and they have the big end of the stick this time around. No one can claim them and send them in the AHL unless Seattle/Florida is ok with it.

worth a shot to see if they don't reclaim him imo. Nothing to lose imo, unlike an offer sheet where there's a threat of potential future retaliation.

 

[HABitual Fan]

If RD is deemed a problem, when Price is back and Motembeault clears waivers, either he or McNiven could be dealt in an AHL trade trade for a defenseman who also cleared waivers from a team needing an AHL goalie.

If Habs claimed Juulsen and Fleury, they'd have to keep them in the NHL. And they'd have to place them on waivers again to send them down. And they can be claimed again. The Panthers and Kraken would have priority to take them back. And if they did, they wouldn't need to put them on waivers again, they can send them straight to the AHL.

Guhle, Harris, and Xhekaj will turn pro next year. Struble may stay another year in college.
