[Rumor] Habs getting calls on Beaulieu
We all know how much one can trust Marc Bergevin when it comes to discussing these things, but apparently the Habs are receiving calls on Beaulieu's availability.
http://nhl.nbcsports.com/2016/09/16/...than-beaulieu/
Say this about the Habs — they’re never boring.
Before the club even began training camp, another player’s name has surfaced in trade talks: Nathan Beaulieu, the defenseman taken 17th overall at the 2011 draft.
In an interview with RDS, Montreal GM Marc Bergevin said that he has received calls about the 23-year-old rearguard, adding “it’s my job to listen.”
That mantra, you’ll recall, is almost exactly what Bergevin said this summer when addressing P.K. Subban trade rumors.
And those, of course, ended with the blockbuster deal to Nashville for Shea Weber.
Beaulieu doesn’t have the same cache as Subban, but would still fetch a nice return on the open market. He had a pretty solid campaign last year, matching a career-high in games played (64) while establishing a career-high in points, with 19.
A quality skater, Beaulieu is also a good puck mover that can man the point on the power play, so there’s no denying that clubs would be interested in acquiring him.
And from the Montreal perspective, there have been rumblings that prized draftee Mikhail Sergachev — taken ninth overall at this year’s draft, the second d-man off the board — could make the leap to the NHL this year, which would fill the Beaulieu void.
As for what the Habs want in return? Well, the left wing position is pretty thin behind captain Max Pacioretty: Andrew Shaw, Phillip Danault and Daniel Carr round out the depth chart. A scoring LW would (presumably) be the return price.
Like we said, never a dull moment in Montreal.

I guess Weber wants a different D partner brought in?

Hope there's no actual weight to this or Zach Redmond is a budding superstar and I didn't realize it.

Probably related to that tweet Beaulieu sent out regarding Michel Therrien's alleged comments about Pacioretty's captaincy. Can't have bad seeds in the room!

Investment 101.... talk up your company (player In this case) to get more interest to raise the price.
Re: [Rumor] Habs getting calls on Beaulieu
Marc Bergevin is all "you don't need to skate well/fast to be good in the NHL" I would expect a tough and slow skating defenseman that brings "grit" and "heart" as a return. As we know Beaulieu likes to skate or pass the puck out instead of chipping it out off the glass and doesn't hit enough. #FreePrice2018

Re: [Rumor] Habs getting calls on Beaulieu
Ha! You're probably right, and then add on that video of him and Christian Thomas going out and partying in Quebec City earlier this year.

Re: [Rumor] Habs getting calls on Beaulieu
Would MON be looking to flip him for another D?
Or improve their Fs?
If so - who slides up the MON ladder for D?
Re: [Rumor] Habs getting calls on Beaulieu
Barberio would benefit the most.

Unless they think Sergachev is ready for full time I would hope they bring in another D-Man.
Depth looks something like this?
Weber
Markov
Petry
Beaulieu
Sergachev?
Emelin
Barberio
Pateryn
Joel Hanley

Thank you.

Depth is a poor word to use here.
