Mathieu Carle wants to be traded??
Mar 3rd
This caught me off guard…
Ok.. you’re a talented D-man.. you’re 21 years old… you’re currently in the minors working hard (at least you should be) to develop into an NHL D-man.
And you demand a trade??
Maybe a little frustrated because you haven’t been called up… but please.
I’m not sure I understand exactly why he’s asking this….. if he’s the type of guy who doesn’t trust his management who have interest in getting him developped into an NHL D-man and just wants what he wants…. then maybe he should go..
But I don’t know anything about this other then what RDS has reported…
Trade deadline looms
Mar 3rd
We’re almost at the trade deadline.
I’m listening to Team990 in Montreal… I always enjoy Tony and PJ.
I love this time of the year… playoffs are just around the corner… the play in most games have intensified…. GMs are starting to sweat….
What moves would you make?
I think that Gainey has made some good moves in getting Schneider and Metropolit.
When Begin was traded to Dallas, it opened the door for him to grad Metropolit off waivers.
Schneider is adding some great experience and calm in the back on D while I like how Metropolit could affect the team…. he’s good on the faceoff… always works hard… and those hard working guys are valuable in the playoffs.
If I was GM, I would either be looking to grab that big center… but much easier said then done… Olli Jokinen… I’d grab him. Who would go?? That’s the question.
But with all the young guys starting to knock on the door… the time is approaching. The team will certainly have a different look in a year or 2.
I would look for another D guy. D has been shaky of late.
