Nope. Hughes told Dach in his trade call the goal was to get bigger.
It would not be a bad move but unless it will spark Caulfield and get a 2026 3rd rounder you can pass. Quite sure I saw a 24 goal scorer who was 5’9 on the waiver wire today and no Caulfield homer is calling for him to be picked up. these are not playoff players.
I wouldn’t say no
Hmm, I’ll be somewhat surprised if Hughes doesn’t take him. He’s a 1st rnd pick from Quebec, and he’s from the 2019 draft. Hughes has been collecting 1st rounders from the draft.
Doubt it
well we finally got abb so give it like 5 more years and pelletier will be a hab
I would much rather they take a chance on Lavoie
Ok I get his angle, the PP was invisible in pre-season. Panic frenzy brings out clickbait, which this waiver option is, a story with wheels on another rebuild…but folks there’s no way we should even look at guys that don’t significantly add to the foundation. Pelletier’s injury projection has got to be super high…He’s 170lbs as an offensive forward *unsuccessfully*. Think Sean Farrell being muscled along the boards…Best case is maybe 20 goals if he’s healthy all year, but c’mon there’s no way he adds 20, that’s a fantasy & a suckers bet…Rafael Harvey-Pinard 185lbs played only 45 games & managed 2 goals, and got injured.
I’m thinking he gets claimed before we get a chance.
