U think it's safe with 2 Natives on the same team?
- pete26

Yeah..I agree, we might end up with weirdoh jumping on the bandwagon.....we don't want that

He is Inuit not native.

The Inuit are not included in the first nations

So they are basically Mexicans from the Artic

Does anyone think that Beaulieu will make the HABS roster this year? Darche leaving the Habs was not something I expected right now.
- Thehabsfan93

I hope not... I'd like to see these kids get some time playing together in the AHL for a while, get some additional experience.

We are in no rush for the next year or 2.

If he doesn't go into last season with Garon and Roloson they're a playoff team
- mr.peanut

Maybe, but he just signed washed up frenchies.

Not what I call improving the team.

What Does a fourth line player not coming back to the habs have to do with a Dman playing for the habs next year

agreed, at least a full year in Hamilton would be great

Steve Begin. Hamilton bound to be the captain?

Darche will help their pp.

It's not like he had room to sign a top 6 forward, and frenchies make such perfect 4th liners.

Darche will help their pp.

Lecavalier and St louis are excited at the chance of playing with his frenchiness on the PP.

It's a way to see things... and I agree it would be nice to see our best prospects grow together in the AHL.

But if the guy is good enough to make the team already.... why not give him a chance.

I expect a guy like Tinordi, if he doesn't start with the team at the beginning of the season, to eventually get called up if there are injuries.

Yup, squeeze out a few more lottery picks and then draft well while you are at it.

Looking good at camp is one thing, translating it to the pros another.

If they look good enough to make the team in the preseason they will get 9 games to prove they belong.
In those 9 games though they have to play unreal, if they just play average they will get sent down in order to save a year on the ELC.

finish bottom 5 this year, trade lottery pick for a good left wing. Win next year.

I just don't want to see a promising kid play 6-8 minutes a game in limited situations.

I'd rather he be playing against bigger players in the AHL (compared to the CHL), playing all types of situations, getting use to the faster / tougher game.

Maybe that's just me, but I think we have tried to rush kids to the NHL too often over the last 5+ years and it has just not worked out.

The Habs are in no rush right now, or for the next couple of years.

So why risk it?

Yeah, I would not mind another top 5 next year.

NO leaf fan, you trade that pick ++ for Columbus' pick and draft Mackinnon.

Yeah, I would not mind another top 5 next year.

That'd be (frank)ing fantastic.

(frank) that...if the Habs have a lottery pick next year....they better use it to draft another top 6 guy. Great draft year in 2013

Oh.
- pete26

Actually, the Inuit are considered to be from Siberia, who crossed over when Asia and North America (Alaska) were connected... So, basically they're a mixed race of Russians, Mongolians, Chinese and Koreans.

Love to see how they do in a good draft, if this was considered a weak one.
