I wish him all the best in Nashville, I've always felt he was treated unfairly in Montreal never had the opportunity to play beside a LD veteran to help him grow
There weren't veteran defensemen in Montreal to follow, you got that right, Savard doesn't play a style for him to model after and Matheson has his glitches as well. Playing with Josi will help this kid understand how to play within his skills. I think he's going to blossom there, he really only needs to play as much as possible, Montreal has too many young guys, Carrier will help the Habs D-men take the next step and I hope Justin gets to do what we all know he can do. He wasn't treated unfairly though IMO, Montreal has been in tough quite a while.
We all knew this day was coming. Habs had too many prospects at D. Justin and Harris were the smart trades. With reinbacher and Mailloux coming we had too many d’s unfortunately
sad to see you go but I think you should have stayed in Laval longer to develop more but I do not think Montreal's style of play really suited your style.hopefully you will fit in well with the Predators and shine... best of luck
Best of luck for you Justin. Hope you can develop into the great player you should be. I'm sad about the trade, but I'm happy about the opportunity.

I wish you all the best. When one door closes.....
best of luck JB!
If there is any franchise that desperately needs players to live up to their potential, it's our Preds.
Defencemen with good size who never uses it!
