EDIT: Blais was sent straight to Laval. I still like this move. Thoughts?
🔵⚪️🔴
I would play him. We need toughness on the bottom 6 bad.
No brainer; great deal. Can we now agree the Bergevin era was a bust? Its all about management it seems and we finally have some.
Sammy Blais is great in laval , what a pick up!!!
Honestly, I don't see him playing in the NHL for the Habs again with how XFlo has been playing. I'd rather Florian get the chance.
I bet he gets the call up up after the road trip and Davidson gets sent back down, I think this is a good pickup.
I don't understand these moves , but I guess at most they impact the bottom 6 so not a huge deal.
Last game against Mammoth , could tell can't really have both /all of Veleno + Florian + Davidson in the lineup
Should upgrade these guys to people who can play NHL 3rd period minutes, one guy getting benched for top line guys sure , but 2.5 of these guys can't /shouldn't be on the ice for critical minutes???
Texier , Blais , can these guys play the minutes ?
Josh on that video binge,, wonder if he cheated on Jess today w another channel??🤔🤣❤️
What with the injuries and call-ups it adds a veteran body which helps Laval and adds tweener depth.
another frog
now Habs have another option experienced and has a Stanley cup ring also.
so bringing back another spare
i hope tomorrow Blais will play
i was pissed when they let him go….. this guy & Florian down in bottom 6 gives us the grit we need down in the last 2 lines
Veleno experiment should be over now
Roy a trade piece ? Maybe there's now a market for slow perimeter players.
As a Greek from mtl solidarity with the Italian kid Joe veleno.
Unfortunately it’s not working out for him in Montreal.
His game ain’t working with this team …
Management should speak to him see where he could go and feel welcome and fit in .
Do him a solid send him to a team with which he matches to jump start his career.
Davidson out .
Texier and Blais in
I LOVE this!!! Hated that the Leafs stole him in the first place. They never even gave him a chance, until our game against them. Blais will hopefully be VERY happy and inspired to do his thing with the Habs!!!
What is the rush, to many teams make trades when they are rebuilding, to rush the process, relax people, not the time to overpaid for old players, remember Ryan McDonagh for Scott Gomez (2009): or John LeClair, a future prolific goal-scorer, along with Eric Desjardins and Gilbert Dionne, to the Philadelphia Flyers, patience.
Blais plays with grit so should be on the team until Habs injured forwards recover. It then becomes a question of whom Habs keep /release? Texier is a huge question mark and a winger so imo surplus to requirement. We need legit 2C centres. The rebuild is obviously far from over given if is was these players would not be in the discussion.
They should grab Parsinnen from New York waivers. 6'3" left shot center.
the voice is annoying
