whats the deal with this kid i know we have him yannik weber and subban and all three are offensive defensemen i know carle is a decent sized defender which is good but i havent seen play any games in the nhl

Well from what I recall three seasons ago when Weber was a rookie in Hamilton, Carbonneau was going to give Carle a shot with the Habs but he got injured in a pre-season game and he hasn't had much luck he keeps getting injuries and stiff competition from other Hab prospects or UFA's.

Seems like a good kid, but made of glass. Doubt he has a future with the Habs, frankly.

Not quite made of glass as a couple years ago he was a victim of a pretty bad headshot against Detroit during an exhibition game and then this past season he was a casualty of a dirty pile-up that took out his shoulder.

Fair enough. But all his injury trouble has slowed his development and maybe made him more tentative on the ice? Wouldn't be surprised to see someone pick him up off waivers.

If he doesn't get claimed in all likelihood he will be packaged and dealt to give the Habs room for other prospects coming out of college and so forth.

Probably stays in Hamilton all year - the Bulldogs afterall do need D men

I guess if the Habs have injuries he could be considered a call up , but then , correct me if I am wrong , would he need to clear waivers again, and the Habs could lose him if someone picks him up.

But if he does get picked up he would have to remain a part of that team's roster

Then at the end of the year when his contract is up he can go where ever he pleases

Oh well , another prodpect with potential that never lived up the fans' expectations ;)

According this website below he doesn't have to clear waivers to come back up.

Nah I see he staying down in Hamilton for the year

Next year he is a RFA so the Habs still own his rights

Yeah, unless we have some rash of injuries, I don't think he will see any action unfortunately. Too bad, he seemed to perform well enough in a couple games I saw him last year, plus he's a right hand shot! We'll see what happens.
