[Habsy]

Third pair guy

6'6", 245lbs

Nice counterpoint to Hutson.

 

[Sal_Butera]

Third pair guy

SCOUTING REPORT
The huge defenseman has always had a big shot, and he is learning how to get into the best spots to use it. He skates well for someone with his size, and should see more ice time as he matures and his game improves. He has the physicality to play a solid shutdown role and enough offensive skill to contribute to the attack.

Long Range Potential: Towering minute-munching defenseman.

Matheson replacement…

 

[Habsy]

Third pair guy

 

[lecoqsportif]

Matheson replacement…

And Xhekaj

 

[GrandWazoo]

Matheson replacement…

Please...

 

[GEEMAN]

Please...

The replacement is maybe with our pick from Barrie …..KA a 2 way beast

 

[Sal_Butera]

Hague also plays RD

 

[Krustchev]

And Xhekaj

I assume he’d be headed to Vegas in any trade for Hague.

 

[Krustchev]

Third pair guy

On Vegas. He’d play higher up here.

 

[Habsy]

Maybe

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Hes big like Xhekaj but his penalty minutes aren't leading me to believe that he's very mean.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Mean, or stupid?

 

[Krustchev]

Hague is okay. I wouldn’t trade Arber for him.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Please...

If Hutson has to play on the right after training camp then we absolutely need Matheson.

Plus hard to compare elite-skating 200 foot D (albeit with brain cramps) with a 3rd pairing guy.

I agree, I have read it would be Struble and a 2nd for Hague.. I do that trade

Nobody cares.

 

[Habsy]

Wut?

 

[GEEMAN]

No way , not paying Hague 4 mil when Struble at 1 mil does the same thing

This is how your cap gets fucked , overpaying role players

Habs are just unloading those mistakes
