The rumor is for McCarron.

He had a pretty good stint with the Roadrunners a couple of years ago. Managed to rack up over 40 PIM in 17 games.

 

[Michoulicious]

Meh.

 

[HOPE]

AHL swap. Never liked McCarron, never will.

 

[BruinsBtn]

The #25 pick in the 2013 draft for the #39 pick. Both busts.

Most of those PIMs were for a boarding major and an abuse of official 10m+ game misconduct.

It pretty much means Thompson will be re-signed and Im fine with that, Thompson is a great 4th line center...

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

4th time Dauphin has been traded at only age 24

Soap.
Mouth.
Wash.

I'm thinking a seven year extension for Weise....

Would've prefer to keep McCarron since he has more potential as a fourth liner due to his size and play style. Maybe he asked for a trade or fell out of favor with the coaching staff in Laval. I saw he cost his team the win a few weeks ago complaining to the referees and breaking his stick.

Dauphin a suitcase. Hard worker

 

[Scintillating10]

Habs making a lot of moves

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

Two AHLers traded closer to home. Doing a solid for both guys.

How many French Canadians on the current Habs roster?

I count 2: Danault and Drouin.

What's the league average?

About the same.

Love the posts about Habs and Duchene.....from Haliburton.

 

[Roadhouse]

Danault, Brière, Parenteau, Deslauriers, Drouin, Byron, Peca, Dauphin and sort of Scandella. All traded for by Bergevin, all speak French (not 100% about Montreal native Scandella).

Now list those who don't speak French.

Scandella.

He's not a French Canadian. He's an anglo raised in Montreal. Is that bad, too?

Nope. It doesn't matter. No other team has SOUGHT this many francophones over the course of just 7 years. Not a single one.

 

[Burke the Legend]

Montreal will forever be haunted by not drafting Denis Savard and will always lean towards the francophone here on out

They stopped for a while which resulted in hits like Mike Fischer over Claude Giroux

 

[GTA]

I bet when players from Toronto like Tavares and Marner play for the Leafs you don't even raise an eyebrow.

Both those players were no brainers. When the Leafs start only hiring coaches and a GM from the GTA, then I'd raise an eyebrow.

who said anything about bad, just pointing out we have 3 local players not 2. I didn't say anything else.
