the audition's for D for the habs is coming to a close

I don'think Hudon fits in what the Habs are trying to do...I think they see him as a player who has to play in the top 9 to get the best out of him.Peca they just signed this summer to that two year deal so I doubt they let him go.....Hudon is a skilled player that they drafted therefore i see them wanting to hold on to him.
Deslauriers gives them that physical presence and last years goal totals should keep him around.
Anyways, that’s how I came to that conclusion.
If the desicion was mine, Peca would be the guy that goes, therefore I hope you’re right.
I’m also glad Ouellet is the odd man out, never was a fan.
Kulak - Weber
Schlemko - Petry
Benn - Juulsen
Is the way I see it too. I would prefer Schlemko comes out & Reilly stays in.
I think they know Ouellet will clear, which means if injuries occur on D again, they have Alzner, Mete & Ouellet as back-ups in Laval. Not great depth, but it's better than it has been when we were calling up the likes of Johnston & Hanley.
Thing is...Chaput has made it not such an easy decision.Waive Chaput, easy decision IMO.
Or I would trade Hudon if anyone offers up anything of decent value, IE a 3rd round pick or LD prospect with limited NHL potential.
Hudon + for Morin?
Thing is...Chaput has made it not such an easy decision.
The 4th line actually has an identity for the first time this season and Chaput is doing something no other player can at his success rate and that's win faceoffs.
That skill alone will keep him on this roster, it was enough to force Scherbak out, it'll be enough to force Hudon out IMO.
I've really liked Chaput, nothing flashy but he's done his job as a 4th line C.
Whatever it may be...I doubt it manifests itself in a trade, it's more likely another waiver claim.So what's Hudon's value ?

What's the scouting report on Ouellet? According to Dreger last night, Ducks have been in the market for a LHD, which is ironic given we just traded one. It was also mentioned that we had been scouting Montreal. Perhaps Anaheim claims him?
what the hell does this organisation see in Schlem-boi ?
going to lose him too. when was the last time an NHL team lost 3 guys on waivers 1/3 into season?
