Description

No idea what Seattle is going to do. Obviously they pick a player off Habs roster. All year I’ve been saying Habs needed a big 4th line. We’ve seen what Armia-Staal-Perry has done. This 4th line loves to hit, has size and is much younger. I like Armia but he’s going to want $3M and he won’t play ahead of 22-11-17. I thought of keeping Byron or Lehky and putting Poehling in Laval for another year.

Free Agent Signings

RFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Kotkaniemi, Jesperi		3	$2,900,000
Poehling, Ryan		2	$1,495,000

UFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Hyman, Zach		4	$4,850,000
Paquette, Cédric		3	$1,800,000

Trades

Additional Details:

Byron has more value than Crouse, so I thought to add a pick, but Arizona takes on a higher salary. So 1 for 1

MTL

Gudas, Radko
2023 2nd round pick (FLA)

FLA

Drouin, Jonathan

Additional Details:

I think it would really help Drouin to play in a none hockey market.

Gudas fits great with Florida, doubt they are looking to trade him

Hathaway-Kulak I'd do it. Hathaway could well replace Armia's minutes on the PK.

I'd definitely re-sign Danault before Hyman, especially if it means Evans is the 3C.

Lehkonen is most likely brought back

Caps have 398502957 LHD, they don't need Kulak.

I completely agree with you, which is why I gave them a top six forward.

I like Danault a lot, but he’s going to cost at least $5M per. Evans has similar numbers, face off % and costs much less.

Hyman has improved each year in every category. If you’re going to give $5M might as well give it to a top 6 forward with some upside. Plus he would fit really well with Suzuki & Caufield. Also leafs don’t have cap to sign him.
