Confirmed with Link: [MTL] Peter Holland (2 years, $575K, 2way yr 1)

[Adam Michaels]

These are the type of guys who play over our young players and wr trade the young guys away

Yea, Audette, Eisenschmid, and Gregoire held back!

 

[Rapala]

So we are at depth move time already? Well not a NHL player in my books. Laval will win the title!

Dove deep for depth...

 

[donghabs98]

Better version of Flynn

 

[Agalloch]

Good signing.

Comparable to Chris Terry.

Should make you happy....

 

[Wats]

Good signing.

Comparable to Chris Terry.

We still have him too. Even a monkey should be able to coach this team into playoff success with Froese - Holland - Terry

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Habs have the best center line in the league, not, probably the worst, Bergevin you are an idiot.

 

[NORiculous]

I like this. He could help when/if injury happen.

 

[crazyd]

How good is he in the dot?

 

[Athletique_Canadien]

Bah, Larry Carrière probably made the Froese/Holland deals. There's a rumoured bidding was on Rad with Dallas so MB is likely solely fixed on that. Some fans make it sound like MB is being tardy wasting time with the depth signings thus neglecting Radulov.

Holland > Flynn. Good enough on this score

At least Rad is still possible

 

[wildD]

good depth move

 

[MarkovsKnee]

1st line center for Laval.

Terry - Holland - Scherbak should be a legit 1st line.

We should have a better D too.

Hopefully, the minor league team is much better than it has been under MB.

Very good point. This could very well have been Carrière who signed these deals.

 

[Scintillating10]

Worth the risk...he was once a high pick. I remember he had size with great speed

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

Prior to the draft he said he considered himself the best player in the draft.

 

[76]

Good sign, low risk high reward here with Holland.

I like that he's been able able to produce at a very good rate in the AHL. He needed a fresh start elsewhere and hasn't reached his potential. He is a big fast and talented center who could find his way in the habs top9 in a near future.

Even if he ends on the fourth it's still a good addition of skills, size and skating on it.

Holland is somewhat a more NHL ready Mccarron with better skating.
Could Mccarron be part of a trade now or do they want both on roster, time will tell.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

Good depth move

 

[Tyson]

Depth moves like this are always needed. Good signing.

 

[Sam I Am]

Depth moves like this are always needed. Good signing.

A younger, far cheaper Lars Eller. Former 15th overall pick, proven AHL scorer, only 26 years old. Still some potential for growth. Plays center as well as both wings. 2-way contact next year.

What's with all the complaints? Good signing.

 

[Weber Fan]

Future replacement for Mitchell as the 4th centre...

 

[badi]

Solid 2nd line in Laval
Good signing

 

[Belial]

Nikita approves!

 

[TennisMenace]

Worth the risk...he was once a high pick. I remember he had size with great speed

Same here. I remember being impressed a few years back on the Leafs. I thought he would blossom nicely....a big center drafted very high.

Is there any chance he could improve under Claude?

 

[get25]

Future replacement for Mitchell as the 4th centre...

Certainly not in FO up to now.

 

[calder candidate]

It isn't a big move but we can't complain, it is a pretty good signing, speed, size, and some puck skills
