Can someone please explain to me why Danis is in Hamilton instead of Huet? Now that I have seen Huet play a few games, I feel safe in observing that he has a very weird style of play. Once he is on his knees he is down for the count! I though the second goal he let in last night was pretty sad - he looked like he was crawling across the ice. He also seems to leave a lot of daylight between himself and the pipes.
Could it be that the Habs decided to give him a series of starts to shop him around? I was thinking that perhaps a "twofer" was in the works - Huet plus???? - but I'm not sure that makes any sense at this point?

I thnk they wanted to give their investment a shot. Plus, if you had traded a perfectly good backup away for a Bust and a Bonk, you might want to try and save face, and hope for the best.
Besides, I think they look at Huet's experience (more than most give him credit) and figure he'll be a more trustworthy guy in the pipes.
