Habs sign Desharnais

whitespy · 11-05-2008, 02:25 PM

I'm very glad to see the Habs giving this guy a shot. He had a GREAT year in the ECHL and has started off pretty strong in the AHL this year as well. He's small but relentless and as a small hockey player myself, it's nice to see another make the dream happen!

Good for him.

**Whitesnake** · 11-05-2008, 02:31 PM

Good job David! Well-deserved to say the least!

Beakermania* · 11-05-2008, 02:32 PM

Great news.... the more points he kept putting up under that AHL contract the more nervous i got that he could be poached by another team.... Now hes our prospect officially.

Watsatheo · 11-05-2008, 02:35 PM

About time, I guess other teams started to gain interest in him.

**beowulf** · 11-05-2008, 02:36 PM

Will be interesting to see if he can make the final jump to the NHL.

now we can include him in our trade packages for that fourth dman or maybe hes the missing piece we need for gaborik

good signing.
I liked him in camp, small but not scared.

like beaker said, how long before he's thrown into trade proposals

I must be seeing things, I thought i saw him sitting on the couch in front of me.
These meds dont seem to be doing the right job

Actually he says what amounts to "hi" after it's cleaned up a bit.

Hawkguy · 11-05-2008, 03:24 PM

Everyone knows he's one of my favourite prospects so I'm thrilled.

When you say "everyone" did you mean besides me?

Difference is those players were all elite prospects and damn good NHLers. Still have yet to see what Desharnais can do.
