Salary Cap Mode: Basic

He is a player that would be intriguing to add for the Canadiens. There would be many positives to add Ehlers for the Canadiens. First of all, the AHL team would be good for once, with Suzuki completing his developpement. Second of all, he would bring consistensy to Jonathan Drouin's game since they played together at junior. Third, he's a finishing playmaker that would like to play for Montreal. The price is steep, so he would fetch an interesting return for Winnipeg. The first round pick should be sacrificed, and it would allow Winnipeg to find an interesting prospect. Artturi Lehkonen is a great team player, penalty killer who is a great complimentary piece to any team and who does the little things right. Finally, Noah Juulsen is a solid defensive prospect who is physical and won't back down from anybody. Ah, and the Jets save cap space, since Lehkonen will not command a large salary. They need to keep their defense as much as possible.
