Alex Tanguay Joins The Montreal Canadiens

June 21st 2008 15:11

Tanguay comes to Montreal

The left-winger was part of a trade in this weekend's draft that saw Montreal give up this year's first-round draft pick (25th overall) and next year's second-round pick. In exchange, the Calgary Flames gave up Tanguay – once they got forward Michael Cammalleri from the Los Angeles Kings – and this year's fifth-round pick (138th overall).

A 6'1'', 189 lbs forward, Tanguay is a great playmaker who will fit with the Habs' attacking style. His stats for the 2007-2008 season were: 78 games played, 58 points (18 goals, 40 assists), and a /- rating of 11. With this trade, Michael Ryder is definitely out of the Canadiens' picture while Bob Gainey has some proof to convince Mats Sundin that the Habs will be serious Cup contenders next season. Tanguay is also from Quebec, something that will make the locals very happy.
