You don't carry three goalies. It's nonsense.
Barron goes down. Norlinder and Heineman are on the team. Book it.

Well the hope is he gets claimed and maybe one of Anaheim, Chicago or....claims him or maybe he goes Europe?

It's actually worse for us if he is in the AHL. Taking up minutes for Prospects development.

Sorry if the Anaheim fans are triggered, it was just to demonstrate that hopefully for Armia he gets claimed and that we prefer it.

No ones like Armia, but he will probably go unclaimed, and he will play in Laval. He is under contract with the team, if there’s injuries he’ll get recalled.

MTL ARE carrying 3 goalies, today was the last day to submit players through waivers

Pezzetta Ylönen & Primeau made the team

Caufield-Suzuki-RHP
Monahan-Dach-Slaf
Pearson-Newhook-Anderson
Pezzetta-Evans-Gallagher
Ylönen

Guhle-Savard
Matheson-Kovacevic
Xhekaj-Harris
Norlinder (probably)

Montembeault
Allen
Primeau

So stop with your nonsense

Incorrect...teams have till Monday at 5pm for final rosters.

After Armia and Lindstrom today we still.have 25.

IMO Norlinder stays over Barron. You carry 2 extra forwards typically over two D. Barron doesn't need waivers.

Which means one of Heineman, Ylonen and Primeau has to go.

Heineman is the only one who doesn't need waivers so it's likely he gets papered down but stays. He's earned a spot.

Gotta think Hughes is trying to play his cards right so he doesn't lose Primeau for nothing. There is no way the run with three goalies. It is NONSENSE. I can't imagine anyone would claim Primeau with multiple better goalies on the waiver line (Jones, Stolarz, Luhhkonen) but who knows.

Three goalies is definitely nonsense. It doesn't last longer than a day.

Assume Hughes is waiting for Tampa to claim Jones before he waives Primeau…

They can’t submit any players on waivers until Tuesday I think ? Heineman Barron Norlinder are all waivers exempt. They will send down a lot of players waivers exempt to reach the 20 man roster while keeping Carey Price on LTI when they submit the list. They will recall whoever they sent in the minor for Opening Night. If Primeau is being waived, it’s gonna be later

DET (Husso,Reimer,Lyon)
BUF (Levi,UPL,Comrie)
MTL (Allen,Montembeault,Primeau)

Are teams who will carry 3 goalies to start the season

Evyerone knows that nobody is picking up Armia's toxic contract.
Anaheim will always be ahead of other teams on this site, so I get that they are a "random team placeholder".

The difference is not that important for this Montreal team, as they will have enough cap space during the season.
But normally, imaginging that Armia's contract would be totally 'off the books' is flawed.

Like CBA mentions, Armia's landing spot will be Laval (AHL), therefore, a relief of about 1.1 M off the salary cap. Not all of his contract.
Cheers mate!

Barron goes down. Norlinder and Heineman are on the team. Book it.


That didn't age well lol

Book it?

Barron stays up, along with Primeau. And both Heineman and Norlinder go down.
So it's a 0 out of 4 calls you made lol

Just teasing buddy.

Have a good day, peace!
