SteenIsThaFuture Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 http://twitter.com/TBLightning/status/21358172105 Ramo was a notable goalie prospect for Tampa but really hasn't panned out. Minor trade of low-tier goalie prospect for low-tier goalie prospect. I'm a little surprised by it, especially since Ramo has been in the KHL last year. Makes me believe the Habs have alternate plans for their backup goalie or they're leaving a spot open to intrigue Ramo to come over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

js2 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Trade away all possible competition. But seriously, I'm not happy at all about this move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteenIsThaFuture Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Ramo had a 2 year deal in the KHL, one year remaining but if the Habs say he can have a spot I bet he comes over. Desjardins is the better statistical goalie, but his size was a worry with more accurate shooters in the NHL who can beat him high. Ramo was good last year in the KHL and made the All-Star team.

EHIW Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Wow, so the two goalies in the franchise I actually had a liking for (Habs + Dogs 09/10) are both traded. This makes me pretty annoyed with Gauthier, Ramo for me is inferior to Cedrick. Tampa may aswell relocate to Quebec City, the amount of Quebecois they have in that team is getting a bit ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteenIsThaFuture Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 What was the point of this deal? Is there more to come? Habs have Alex Auld, both his and Ramo's KHL deal expire next year, but MTL retains Ramo's rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HabGirlYVR Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I like Rämö, I think he could be just as good as a backup for Price as Auld or anyone else. Question being whether he'd want to leave his KHL role to sit on the bench (mostly) over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weedleaf Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Wouldnt you give him the Starting Role in the AHL.. And if Auld/Price dont work out you call him up not to mention this could be a scare tactic move to scare price into signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColRouleBleu Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 this made me chuckle: habsinsideout1: RT @EljayIU: #Habs only team in the league where our biggest line is our 3 goalies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matariel Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 ... So much talk about this kid and now he's gone. I'd be shaking in my boots were I a goalie for the franchise, hoping people won't talk about me or I'll be shipped out. We should rename the Habs for the Montreal Snowbirds: everyone's going to Florida! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow4Habs Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I'm surprise about this trade. Maybe PG saw some posters saying Desjardins will steal the job from Price this season. But seriously, I'm surprise about this trade. Maybe Kari will be a better suitable back-up by next season as he was 6th in KHL, with fairly good stats.
