The Habs are buying out Parenteau. Good.

Thank Christ. Now I can watch this one twitter guy I follow, who is usually really level headed, lose his shit.

So, that's a $1.33M cap hit for the next two years.

Nick Kypreos:
With Parenteau soon to be off books, some suggest this will open room for Canadiens to take a good run at UFA Beleskey.

**** off, Kyper.

See, MB is not sleeping at the wheel.

Kypreos had better be trolling.

Signing Beleskey would undo all the positives done with buying out PAP and would make us worst off.

Nobody was gonna take this clown, buy out was the only option. The move is also an acknowledgement that the Briere deal was a mistake. Glad MB acted quickly here.

Good to see that he will be gone. Wish they could have found someone to take him. But we all knew that would be hard to do.

MB is not going after a guy that will give you 5-10 goals

Meh... that was strike 2 for PA. And also... Briere was pretty awful himself.

It was a good gamble at the time and most of us were happy with the deal then, it didn't pan out so let's cut our losses here.

I agree. Briere was not going to work here, there was a chance PA could rebound and he is younger. I would much rather have my GM address a mistake than to let it fester.
