I look forward to MT's unhealthy obsession with this marginal player.

Barberio- Bartley new 1st pairing???

 

[Runner77]

Thanks for starting the thread.

Low down on BARFLEY:

Assets: An offensive defenseman, he also is adept at playing a physical brand of hockey. Is experienced at various levels of competition, both in Europe and North America.

Flaws: Isn't built like the ideal National Hockey League defenseman, so he can wear down over time. Also, his reach is a little lacking, so his stick needs to be more active.

Career Potential: Depth defenseman.

27 years old, 6', 203 lbs., shoots left.

6/19/2013 Re-signed by the Nashville Predators to a three-year contract.

11/29/2015 Placed on waivers by the Nashville Predators.

 

[Agalloch]

Francis Bouillon type of D.

Wow, Tinordi was worth NOTHING.

 

[SquiddFX]

Has MB done a presser yet? Curious to hear his excuses.

 

[hardcorehabs]

#canadiens recall Victor Bartley. They want to see what he can do. Told he's a D who's playing like Francis Bouillon. #tvasports

He will have immediate impact. Bergevin scouted him well.

 

[Nevins]

in 2014-2015,Barkley has 2.2 hits per games with Nashville.

DLR had 2.0 hit per games with Habs last year.So MT want more physicallity....

 

[Habs13]

...but can he...



...nope... not even.

 

[waffledave]

I am absolutely, 100% positive this guy becomes a regular in the lineup.

Not because he's good. Because Therrien.

Bartley-Subban
Emelin-Petry
Barberio-Gilbert

 

[Uncle Gary]

I can't wait till the draft with a good pick.

They could have literally compared him to any other player and I'd have been less depressed about it. Incoming top-4 minutes for him.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

is this for real?

what a weird day for Habs fans

it just gets better and better

 

[McGuires Corndog]

They could have literally compared him to any other player and I'd have been less depressed about it. Incoming top-4 minutes for him.

And the raging love affair between the French media and Therrien continues.

Talking about Bouillon as if he was anything more than a roadblock to the NHL for Beaulieu AND Tinordi...

 

[OpenIceHit]

...but can he...



...nope... not even.

Habs are not allowed to fight anyway. I'm still suprised they let Emelin give a few hard hits.

 

[VAN-HAB]

Habs are not allowed to fight anyway. I'm still suprised they let Emelin give a few hard hits.

They don't allow Emelin, he does it occasionally cause he cant help himself.

He and Galch will be traded next and bring more character players instead.

 

[The Great Weal]

Can't ever have too many defenseman right Marc?

Interview with Bartley. He was the real focus of this trade. Sad to say, but unless Tinordi grows hockey sense, we won the trade.

 

[Natey]

Honestly.. He's behind one of the best defences in the league. He may end up better than Tinordi. But whatever, no way is he going to be better than Pateryn.

Who knows, he hits, he fights .... Let's see what happens. Apparently, Nashville was reluctant to move him. At the same time they just moved Seth Jones, so he must have been way down the depth chart there.

Time will tell, though. The Tinordi situation was ridiculous. It was time to move him. Glad he is gone, and good luck to him.
