I really like this guy, he's quiet but deadly. He plays hard, shows a great love for the team, has heart and is working every shift out there.

I haven't seen him do too many "Stupid" things like I have with other players.

I'm glad he's locked up for a couple years, it'd be hard to find someone so well rounded as him.

He's so willing to sacrifice himself out there its amazing to watch. One of our top defenders again tonight, he and Bouillon really click.

I love the effort and heart this guy puts into every stride out there, whether its racing from board to board to keep the puck in, or racing from end to end to dive out and block a shot or a pass.

Its a wonder that Detroit let him walk.

I think they let him walk bc we def. overpaid for him in that multi=year deal...With that being said, the only way to get decent players who are part of winning teams is to overpay them...Look at what happens to the Patriots in the NFL...Teams overpay for their free agents every season bc they are decent players part of winning organizations

I really like Dandy, he's all around consistant. There hasn't been too many times I've been disappointed in his play this season.

He's really seemed to find his place with the Canadiens this year.

solid effort by mathieu, his performance can be sumarized by the play where he was laying on the floor blocking the potential pass and not caring whether he gets a puck in the face or not. Plus, his interviews are always nice :D Him and Bouillon are stellar together.

Dandenault...overpaid?

A guy with three Stanley Cup rings that can play as a top four defenseman and a forward is overpaid at 1.7 million?

With the wages being dished out for defensemen these days, I'd say Dandenault is a steal for what he brings to the team.

Yup. I love Dandy at this price tag. I have no complaints about his play, except that I wish the coaches would give him a little more responsibility because he deserves it and I'm sure he's up to the challenge.

Absolutely...he brings tons to this team and I really love watching him play!  One of our most versatile players for sure.

I agree and it is sure nice he back from his injury.

Yah AT THE TIME of his signing he was being overpaid. Thats exactly why Detroit let him walk. If they thought he was getting fair value they would have re-signed him....

As for now with the way the game is being played he is NOT overpaid...I was simply implying that AT THE TIME of the signing he was overpaid and said that most people on teams that win are in fact overpaid...And I analogized with the New England Patriots bc players like David Patten, David Givens, Willie McGinest, Damien Woody etc etc were all overpaid bc they were winners

where is Dandy?

Hand injury, minor thing.

I love how our team has so much depth at D that we can lose a very good defenseman like Dandenault and not even lose a step, fantastic to see!

ah thanks.

Ya I know everyone says trade Janne, but honestly unless we need the cap space, I see no real need now. Overpaid? sure. But he gives us lots of depth and we're always going to have injuries. We're not going to get anything more than a mid round pick for him, and in the playoffs depth can be everything.

Hahaha habsfan#08. He did say he wanted a goal for Christmas!

Great to see Dandy working hard out there. Congrats on his 1st goal of the season! Especially with his injury, you wouldn't even know that his hand/wrist was hurt.

Can I add to the :clap: :clap: above on the first of the season. Good to get a goal 22 games into his season. Puts him on track for a normal 5 or 6 goal season.
