which is another reason i didn't like the Beualieu trade. why lose 2 players when you only have to lose 1?

although i guess it's possible old Timmsy knocks one out of the park!!!! remember the 2007 draft?????

Yeah Bergy hit one out of the park with Drouin, then popped out to the catcher on his second at bat. Still 1/2 with a 2.00 slugging

maybe there could be another package that would take plek.

hudon is still young but inexperienced in the NHL, he could still be a bust, or at best a 3rd line centerman. thing is the league has more 3rd line centerman than anything else.

Still think plek or emelin would be the sure bet for movable parts.

You just wish they were because of their contracts, that doesn't make it true.

«What appears likely is that the Knights will be fairly well off on Defence. With the likes of Sami Vatanen, Matt Dumba, Jack Johnson, Brooks Orpik, Trevor Van Riemsdyk, Calvin De Haan, Michael Stone, Xavier Ouellet, Klas Dahlbeck, and Slater Koekkoek available it would be difficult to see Vegas plucking a defender off the Canadiens so.... maybe Beaulieu could have stayed? I digress».

You have to consider side deals. A guy like Vatanen is not really available. And the rumor is that many deals were made by Vegas.

Beaulieu had next to no value for a while now... he was headed out of town with or without the expansion.

Not sure why but some "experts" and I mean a loooot are super high on Davidson being drafted.

Please stop it with the Plek package splitting this and that.

They aren't taking Plek unless Bergevin gives them a high pick... and that won't happen.

well wishing maybe but also hudon doesn't make sense for me either way why would Vegas pick up a kid that has no experience in the big league? it would be a gamble... well maybe gambles is just who they are, they are in Vegas right! lol

Because they believe that a jackass party animal like Beaulieu would act like a wise man at the age of 22 in the city of Montreal.

It's kinda like wishing your neighbour will come pick your dog's poop in your backyard because he started a compost bin.

It was over when Julien benched him in game 6 of the playoffs. Beaulieu said the same thing.

going out on a limb here but it could be that it makes no sense.

A) obviously he has some value if Buffalo dealt a pick for him and protected him
B) why was he on his way out regardless? why get rid of him to get rid of him? to make room for all of those up and coming smooth-skating defencemen from the AHL? this team has nothing coming. nothing.

exactly, it's addition by subtraction at this point. they protect their investment in Chucky by getting rid of Beaulieu, with an expansion draft or not.
