Description

I guess losing Juulsen was better than trading Kulak??

Boy oh Boy I hope Perry or Frolik don't get claimed.

Seems like risky business. Could have got a return on Kulak and kept Juulsen. I value Kulak and I guess it's better to keep someone in your starting lineup than lose someone on the outside looking in....
Certainly not devastating when we have Fluery, Brook, Struble, Norlinder, Guhle coming

Boy was Fleury flying in that scrimmage. Would love to see him making this team soon. Really like his game.

Thoughts?

2 teams will be eying Perry

If Anaheim wanted him why didn't they just sign him?
If leafs claim him he has to hold a roster spot for 15 days I believe.... Who does he bump off the leafs?

I don't see the ducks taking him as they are at max cap space and only have 1 contract space left. I think the Leafs would have like to have added him but since he shunned them in favor of the Canadiens I am not positive they will take him. By signing with the Habs he basically said I don't want to play for the Leafs (not in so many words).

Juulsen was likely going on waivers whether we traded Kulak or not. It’s unfortunate, but it isn’t anything we can’t deal with. Like you said, we have a tonne of good D prospects coming up.

As for Perry, it sucks, but we’ve only had him for 2 weeks, so if we lose him it’s just like we never signed him. I just feel bad for Corey, because he was going to get a chance to play for his favourite team growing up, and now he’s going to a random team that he may not want to play for.

There’s no timeframe for how long anyone needs to be on the roster for. If they aren’t on the roster, that just means they’re on waivers again.
