maas_art Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Love the "not a big one" tag haha. Kind of a weird move for sure. Both are fringe NHL players at best with very similar skill-sets and careers. I wonder if CJ is not impressed by our 4th line wingers and sees Cracknell as a potential upgrade there over guys like Deslauriers. I suspect they'll both be in the minors unless either team hits injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_T_L Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Older player with less production. Sounds like a great upgrade according to MB logic. All part of the NEW 5 year plan I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its still the same 5 year plan... but the plan only includes "business days." Remember that a year has 365.25 days in it. So far, Marc Bergevin has only been gm for 435 games - so just barely over one year! (cut him some slack guys, jeez) So he has until the end of the 2034-35 season (hrm i think thats when Weber's contract expires... coincidence?) to see his plan to fruition.

BigTed3 Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Cracknell, meh. But then again, Holland, meh. #notabigone From what I've heard, organization wasn't big on Holland and Holland didn't like that so many other guys got recalls ahead of him. So everyone moved on.

This is no big deal, the trade was probably done with the AHL in mind not the big club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habs_Hockey_Nutz Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 My bet is he replaces Froese on the 4th line... Deslauriers - De La Rose - Cracknell Shoots right, 6'3" 220lbs. Adds grit and size as they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
