The Canadiens don't have the option to send him to Hamilton, because they picked him up on re-entry waivers, we are stuck with him for the rest of the season, or Brad has to go back onto waivers, and if he clears he become property of his previous team... We also only pay half of his salary...

Good the habs got someone that can drop the gloves but I think Boulton would have been the better choice.

Why not both?

Staubitz will be up for the rest of the year. This is the type of player RC likes.

With Blunden finished, AK gone, & Moen hurt, Staubitz should be safe.

I hope, but now it's time to get a real HW. Staubitz can't play for sh1t and can't fight HWs for sh1t but if he fights he'll provide some entertainment at least.

Max Pacioretty - David Desharnais - Erik Cole
René Bourque - Tomas Plekanec - Scott Gomez
Mathieu Darche - Lars Eller - Louis Leblanc
Travis Moen - Ryan White - Brad Staubitz
(Aaron Palushaj, Andreas Engqvist)

P.K. Subban - Josh Gorges
Tomas Kaberle - Alexei Emelin
Raphaël Diaz - Yannick Weber
(Chris Campoli, Frédéric St-Denis)

Not bad for a 4th line when Travis Moen is back.

But we definitly need to give our defense squad a bit of size and grit. Diaz or Weber should move and we should fill this spot with a guy like Matt Carkner or Jim Vandermeer on july 1st.

With that high first round pick, the Habs must draft Brendan Gaunce, a big sized centreman that drops the gloves sometimes.

Plus we buyout Scott Gomez and Gionta is back, so next year it looks like that:

Max Pacioretty - David Desharnais - Erik Cole
Rene Bourque - Tomas Plekanec - Brian Gionta
Mathieu Darche - Lars Eller - Louis Leblanc
Brad Staubitz - Ryan White - Travis Moen

Andrei Markov - Alexei Emelin (puck moving - defensive)
P.K. Subban - Josh Gorges (puck moving - defensive)
Matt Carkner - Raphaël Diaz (defensive - puck moving)

You want Darche re-signed or just expect it?

I just expect it, Gauthier likes him for sure. I'd trade him away for a 9th round pick but whatever, I expect him to be re-signed, 700 000$ for a guy that takes a regular shift... he's good with the youngters also, for them who move a lot between Hamilton and Montreal.

Good looking squad

Hopefully we move that useless pant load Chris Campoli and we bring up Alex Henry... We can only hope....

Alex Henry, I'd pray for him to be called up, but it wont happen. Next time you'll see him will be in the next pre-season, he'll get a fight with a guy like Matt Carkner and Shawn Thornton, he wont beat him, and he'll be cut the morning after to take care of the young players in Hamilton.

I was hoping that for the Cunneyworth thing the Habs would've tried to shape up and reconcile a little and gotten Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond, Andre Deveaux and Jean-Francois Jacques and play them on a line to earn back some respect from franchophone and ole schoole hockey fans alike

But seriously I think Staubitz would've been a better fit with the 'Canes or the 'Nucks right now..glad he's back tho

[Wadubbin]

Well Montreal getting a guy with some testicles.If there ever was a kudos to throw out there.This is the time.
