With the Olympic break officially under way, the Montreal Canadiens announced that David Desharnais, Tom Pyatt and P.K. Subban have been assigned to the Hamilton Bulldogs.
While many can justify the return of forwards Pyatt and Desharnais, who will no longer be necessary after the break as forwards Pouliot and Andrei Kostitsyn should be back in the line-up, Subban’s reassignment probably raised a few eyebrows. It shouldn’t have.

The Montreal Juniors hosted divisional rivals Rouyn-Noranda Huskies this afternoon and although it was Valentine’s day, there was no love shared between these two teams. The Huskies had won the previous 5 contests and, unfortunately for the Juniors, the 6th was no exception. Led by Sergey Ostapchuk, who scored the game winner, the Huskies skated off to a 4 to 3 victory.

Amidst unfounded rumours that Alexander Frolov was being traded to Montreal, the Montreal Canadiens did make some changes to their roster, but none of the “splashy” kind, surprise, surprise.
Lately, any moves the Habs have made appeared to be of the luke-warm variety or the root cause of a rift between Habs loyalists. This move is no exception.
The Canadiens have just announced yesterday that they have acquired 29 year old Centre Dominic Moore from the Florida Panthers in return of a 2011 2nd round pick. At the same time, they announced that Ben Maxwell Had been sent back down to Hamilton.
