It was not a fun week for the Montreal Canadiens organization.
Here is a listing of each player’s waiver status this season from the Habs to the Bulldogs to any signed prospects not playing in the AHL.
Friday was cut down day for the Habs as seven players were sent to Hamilton in advance of the afternoon deadline to declare opening day rosters.
Interestingly enough, there were more changes on the coaching staff than free agent acquisitions as no fewer than four new coaches will be working with the Habs this season, led by Michel Therrien.
Strengths: Has good offensive instincts and skates well.
New GM Marc Bergevin completed his first trade on Tuesday afternoon and it is by no means as stunning as Monday’s sudden departure of Scott Gomez.
The week that was for the Hamilton Bulldogs was full of surprises, the biggest being a victory over the Western Conference leaders.
Training camp in Montreal kicked off with somewhat of a surprise on Sunday morning with Scott Gomez being notably absent.
Training camp will soon be upon us with the Habs expected to formally start on-ice work late in the weekend.
