While I love this, I think it may spell the end for Moen.

You'd think the Habs would have taken JF Jacques instead but happy they got something. I wonder how this affects Travis Moen? Is Moen done for the year injury wise or is he being shopped?

Out with a hiden concussion. They say it's a upper body injury but journalists report that it may be a concussion.

Everything says he is concussed. Randy had a say in that, Randy said he wanted a grinder on each of his lines. Under Jacques Martin the Habs were averaging 19 hits a game, with Randy it's 30.

I would agree 100%. Moen is either concussed and will be out for a long time or he is going to be traded, which would net something quality in return.

I would be shocked and excited for Hab fans if Moen and Staubitz dressed. Its not ultra tough, but its a huge upgrade in that department.

When Travis Moen comes back, Brad Staubitz is going to be sent to Hamilton, watch this.
