G. Carle
for
Adam Ross - 20 year old
64 13 13 26 73
Seems kind of odd to me to trade for a 20 year old unless you're not sure about one of your current 20 year olds.

Clendenning will be attending the St-Louis Blues camp and Labrie will attend the Habs camp. Ross is nothing more than an "insurance policy" according to Couturier who is known to like to have competition at all levels for the training camp. Clearly Labrie and Clendenning will have to be better than Ross who is more or less an energy player who can fight at times. www.lanouvelle.net/article-128853-Adam-pourrait-causer-des-surprises.htmlAccording to this, Svoboda seems to be assured of his spot. IMPO if Clendenning and Labrie come back, Adam Ross will pack up. |

IMPO if Clendenning and Labrie come back, Adam Ross will pack up. I think it was a necesary move to pick up Ross, as I really have a good feeling Clendenning could win a pro contract. He has too much heart and grit (things you can't teach) not to get a serious look. I loved to hate Jordan when he played CB, guts and a true warrior. Labrie should get a sniff, but I think he'll definitely be back. Montreal should have a good number of contact defenseman in Hamilton and it would be much better for Labrie to get 20-25 minutes a game in Bathurst than play ECHL, IMO. |

Reading the article, it states Clendenning was invited to the NEW YORK ISLANDERS training camp, and not St. Louis. I guess he and Chabot may have gotten along better than most thought.  |

That's not much in return, guys like Ross are worth an 8th rounder...dime a dozen.

I'm mostly happy with the trade because G.Carle is gone; point blank.

I think in terms of Draft picks he wasnt worth more than a 7th/8th rounder anyway. He was worth a 2nd rounder(or thereabouts) less than 12 months ago. that's quite a drop in value. |

The drop in value is warranted lol...hes sucked...period...plus he was given 2 difference chances with 2 teams, BAT was his 3rd...after the 3rd strike, usually your value drops.... |
