Habs Final Team Cuts


Guest

Recommended Posts

We made a few cuts this week but there's still decisions to be made.

Anybody know when the final cuts will be anounced??? Are they taking everybody on this team bonding trip to T.O. ???

Yes they are taking everybody, since the Bulldogs are still in Scotland.

So final cuts wont be made until the Dogs return??

I was under the impression that the final roster was gonna be announced shortly after the Sabre game.

I guess we'll all be left to speculate a little while longer.

That is somewhat surprising news about SK. Looks like there will be no nonsense tolerated under JM and BG going forward. So 28 players are going on this retreat which means 5 more cuts to go. I know Chip is currently injured but this development does increase his chance of starting with the Habs. Either that or the Habs do intend on keeping 8 D for now,, which means Weber stays.

If I were to guess , these will be the remaining cuts at some point in time

Chipchura, Ben Maxwell, Mathieu Carle, Tom Pyatt, Yannick Weber , Curtis Sanford or Gregory Stewart

Is Sanford still with the team? I know he was waived ( never heard that he cleared but assume so). Is he counted in those 28 remaining players?

P.S Your cuts leave the roster at 21 ( 2 below limit). Do you think were going with a short roster this year?

Predictions on roster cuts:

  • Yannick Weber
  • Tom Pyatt
  • Ben Maxwell
  • Curtis Sanford

Leaving us with a proper sized roster of 23.

None of D'Agostini, Chipchura, or Stewart need to be cut since Sergei has been sent to Hamilton.

SK's demotion does seem to point the Habs in this direction. Anyone of those guys could fill a role for us (as call ups) if we run into injuries.

I agree and if I was a betting man I would bet the farm (if I had one) :rolleyes:

I can't see MTL lossing players on waivers except maybe Sanford who is not a prospect. The guys that do stay still have to prove there NHL caliber though.

im sorta surprised with the send down for SK. i figured with all the guys that left in the offseason that he would certainly make the big club this year. but i would agree that we will be back before too long. he's a good talent and we will need all the help we can get with the other teams in the east that have built possible powerhouses (Rangers, Senators, Flyers....etc.) im still very hopeful and staying positive that this team, with proper playing time together, could do some damage to the eastern conference.
