I don't. Bergevin has shown some promising things recently. He might see what the rest of us do re: Desharnais

Well, that's good to know. It's the best of the possible reasons for failing a medical test I guess.

Today was the only scrimmage I watched and I was impressed by this Beaudoin kid. For those that have watched the other two days has he played this well and if so why the hell is he undrafted?

When I said Pacioretty 2.0, I was more talking about his ability to recover quickly from an injury. He was supposed to miss the game today but still played, a bit like when Pacioretty is injured and he's somehow able to get back sooner than expected (the Chara injury, the Wisniewski shot to the ribs, etc).
I agree though that he kinda looks like Max out there, from my limited viewings of him. Fast, good shot, good stickhandler. Seems to drive the net a bit more though. We'll see how that translates to the NHL level. Chances he end up as good as Max are slim to none but, as you said, a 3rd line version of him would be more than enough. I'm really lookin forward to see what he can do.

Can't say why the guy is undrafted but yes Beaudoin and Bennett have been the two best defenceman during the duration of the scrimmages.

Enjoy it now while it lasts...
DD is not the one that gonna be transfered to wing or be dealt.
Plekky would have way more value.
Eller can pick the defensive duties of Plekky wwhile DD and Galchenyuk will provide the offensive side. Wingers can play two-way hockey too. It's not the sole responsability of a centerman. of course, they have to be aware, and that is why Bergevin said that they gonna try Galchy at centre to check out his defensive abilities. I am more concerned with his face offs abilities.

Therrien found replacement for Bouillon Habs Standard Press
While commenting the streaming for day 4 of Habs rookie camp, Gaston Therrien was really taken by invitee Charles-David Beaudoin. "The guy plays an intelligent game, never out of position, good crisp first pass and was physical especially against free agent Jiri Sekac" said Therrien. "In my book, he earned an invitation to the big camp" was his conclusion.
Asked to comment on Therrien's good remarks, Charles-David Beaudoin said "I don't think I can identify myself as a Cube". Knicknamed Ray after the journalist Raymond Beaudoin who received the famous Nutcraker kick from former PM Pierre-Elliot Trudeau, Beaudoin was asked if he was related: "not in the least, but I expected a rematch from Justin after his bout against the Senator in Ottawa".
Good luck to Charles-David Beaudoin.
Sorry, had to get this out of my system.

Our management isn't gonna sit there and go LOL points. They know they hide DD.. And they know they can't hide two centers.
Plekanec has more value because he's better. We are going to keep the better players. That's the point.
Price has more value than Tokarski, doesn't mean we trade Price.
For the tough opposition, we have Eller and Malhotra. Bergy actually mentioned Eller's ability to play against top opposition after the signing. I think all the signs are pointing to Plek being moved.
They also know that DD is instrumental to MaxPac production... Plekky is over 30 and paid 5 million. And he is year after year a disappearing act in the Playoffs. Eller and Malhotra can handle the defensive side of the game as well as the pk.
We all know you would prefer DD to disappear forever, and ever.... But it's not he way it's gonna happen in the real hockey world.

When I said AHL players, it's Sorkin and Co. From Shea to even Chouinard....those guys played in the AHL and are seen as such. Even if they have contracts or not. With practices not ready in Hamilton, keep most guys, even if it means that some will never see a preseason game. Then, when Hamilton practices starts...you send them down.
