Habs Season Thread: 2024-25 Regular Season

[Thurston]

Hey, we dumped Hoffman!
That's a win in and of itself.

 

[GrandWazoo]

Happy to see Hoffman go. It’s a crowded blue line now though.

Basically got Matheson and picks for free

Or, we traded Hoffman and Pitlick for Matheson and picks, which ever you prefer.

good stuff no matter how you slice it

Eric Engels’ take — Petry already being shopped

 

[HabsFan1]

I like it

 

[Habsy]

Well done HuGo, well done. Hoffman as a minus plus assets coming back.

Interesting that they took DeSmith. Anything left there?

Insurance policy?

 

[Habsy]

He's had flashes but another reclamation? Probably to balance the books and clear one out of the stable in Pittsburgh.

Petry + Pit 2nd for Pesce?

 

[GrandWazoo]

Hard to find anything wrong with the trade, Hoffman was a waste of space. Petry can either be traded and can still fit on our top two pair. He’d be a good partner for Guhle.

 

[CH1]

They can trade whichever of DeSmith or Allen at the deadline for a 3rd rounder

 

[Habsy]

If Primeau does get claimed, are the Habs better or worse with DeSmith over Allen?

Or package Petry + Allen to a desperate contender going all in…

Pour me a glass of that Rose sir!

Does it matter? They are simply placeholders until we get serious

only way it makes sense.

Julie posted last week they took the boys to NYC, maybe they are looking for a house...

Too funny if Habs pair Matheson-Petry to start season…

Hoffman and Hot Karl in the same deal also amusing
