Ward sent down

Don't worry. Before all of you guys go nuts and say he shouldn't be sent down and blah blah, its only for conditioning.

Is there actually place for him in the current rooster now that Audette is back from injury?

Yay! I will see him play again!

And he should be a force and help the Dogs beat The Mighty Ducks tommorow!

There's always the place on the Habs for a big, talented, hard working, physical forward.

I think this is the best thing for Ward. After being out of action for that long of a stretch, I think a little stint in Hamilton to get everything back to normal is the best thing for Ward. Once he is back up to speed, hopefully management will call him up, and send Audette down permenantly!!!!!

Since it's a conditionning string, he'll be back for sure.

And I agree 200% on the send Audette down permanently part!

They could send down Juneau, Perrault and Kilger too. For what they bring to this team...

Ward has proven he belongs to the team. He brought a lot of grit to the game. IMO, he's worth 12 Audis.

Juneau does a decent job this year, Perreault has a 65% faceoff wins percentage..

I agree for Kilger though, a sting in the minor could wake him up. But I seriously doubt it, he's always sleeping and does nothing :p

Me if I was Bob, I would try to trade Kiilger for a pick or something like that, and place ward in the line up.
But who want kilger...

Get off of Kilger guys. We were all over Sundstrom, and look at how well he's played (except for last game) of late. Kilger is safe until Ward returns. The two of them have great chemistry together. Ward's energy increases and plenty of it seems to rub off on Kilger. Give Kilger the fourth line centre spot, and throw Ward on the right wing. Slice up 12:00 a night, and I'm convinced you'd have a very effective fourth line.

That gives us:

Ryder-Koivu-Bulis
Audette-Ribs-Zed
Dackell-Juneau-Sundstrom
Langdon-Kilger-Ward

Where's Yannic?

Lurking in the shadows.
I don't have a place for Perreault. He's played better of late, as has everyone really, but he doesn't really fit into any of the lines. I would like to see, at some point, a pair of competant scoring lines; a fast, astute checking line; and a capable, physical energy line. Perreault doesn't fit.

Fair enough. I feel the same way about building third and fourth lines. All the more reason that a trade is necessary. Either get rid of Yannic or get rid of Ribs and get a winger for line 2. I don't really care who they trade out of the two, although I think we get more if we trade Ribeiro.

Ribs and Rivet for Satan?
