We've probably all seen the reports and many are assuming it is because we don't want to risk hurting Jose and losing trade value. What about if Huet is getting time so we can increase his value? Everyone wants a good goalie these days.

With all the hype...who knows! The goalie to keep though is Huet! Alot more bang for your buck!

I totally agree with you guys but he's only played 2 games. Let's see how he does when he plays 10 straight games and fatigue enters the picture.

Yeah, but remember boys, we need a good goalie, so i don't think there gonna trade a average goalie who's playing well now, but never proved anything in the past, to a team for another average goalie, i can't see it happening, if the habs are trading a goalie, its theo, and we'll get more and better for that.

I agree; I think people are reading too much into it. Julien is simply going with the hot hand (Huet), as any coach would do.

Does anyone remember how Theo became our starter? Hackett was off his game and Jose got a few start. Next thing you know our big contract goalie was on the bench, and the youngster was starting, this seems way to familiar. BTW Theo cant stop beach balls right now, so I think Julien is choosing Huet over hanging a sweater in the net. Theo is just brutal. Maybe they are realizing this now.
