Nice

 

[usahockey22flyers]

Dale Weise is an awesome dude, I hope he finds that magic he had in MTL the first time

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

No picks? Just two players for two players? MON fans happy to have Weise back?

Not really. More expensive than Schlemko, but probably not as useless.

Even as a Canucks fan, I'm happy that Weise is back in Montreal.

His trolling and owning of Lucic during the 2014 playoffs was great.

I mean ok....Schlemko had to go, didnt care for Froese, Im sure Weise lost a step with his last stint with MTL...so Folin must have been the incentive for MTL here

 

[The List Of Jericho]

Huge move...if this was the AHL.

 

[Schenn]

Whole lot of meh here. But maybe Weise can rekindle his Montreal magic.

 

[George Clooney]

Not sure I get this move... 2.5m next year for weise on the fourth line seem expensive

Not really. He's a RD.

Huge move...if this was the AHL.

Might just be that, an AHL move. Mtl had tok many Ds and not enough Fs in Laval. Weise might fill that role if Julien doesn’t think he’s good enough for our 4th line

 

[ottawa]

The Dutch Gretzky is back

 

[BLNY]

Weise and Schlemko both have another year left. Frolin gives some left side depth. Froese is an AHLer - leading scoring for Laval. That's a loss for the Rocket, who are already depleted.

You paying his salary?

Schlemko is 2.15M next year and was in the AHL for almost two months now. Bad contract for bad contract.

MB might think he can still get something out of good ol’ Dale while Schlemko wasn’t going to play another game for the Habs

 

[He Is Knocking]

Rearranging of deck chairs, I believe Flyers management wanted to get Weise away from Patrick. Could be wrong but hope it works out for both teams.

 

[1865]

The two we got back. I know nothing of them. Can they be as useless as Weise and Folin?

 

[HabsTown]

Probably Agostino going back helping the Rocket, Weise in on the 4th line

 

[pezcore]

Not really. He's a RD.

well then I dont get it but whatever...doesnt hurt us now or in the long run

 

[Broad Street Buddies]

The two we got back. I know nothing of them. Can they be as useless as Weise and Folin?

Yes.

 

[justafan22]

Weise for Schlemko as a base was hypothesized for a few weeks

 

[ottawa]

The two we got back. I know nothing of them. Can they be as useless as Weise and Folin?

Probably even more tbh. A whole lot of nothing being moved around both ways.

 

[SlickShot]

Minor trade for both teams.

 

[MasterDecoy]

Erm, ok.

I loved weisse back then, not sure how effective he can still be, but who cares, DUTCH GRETZKY IS BACK
