Habs without Captain Weber

Team: 2021-22 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 15, 2021

Published: Jul. 15, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

I first added Bernier to replace the lost of Allen (likely) and add Suter for that leadership that Weber brings. I also add Riley Nash just for the backup in case of injuries. I keep Danault, Kotkaniemi, Armia and Perry around the club.

NOW the trades :

- First we should ship Byron elsewhere (any team that can take his contract) because of the cap (I mean look at the other trades and don't forget than next year it's Suzuki and Romanov paycheck)

- Next I will trade for Seth Jones, solid 1rst D in the league and he wants out of Colombus, so I think that Fleury + Drouin + Hillis + picks is a good return for a guy that we don't know yet if we will resign him next summer.

- I went a little crazy with the Stl deals, I'm not sure if the Blues will accept that, but keep in mind that Tarasenko wants out and he's a lot injured, so it keeps down his value. Adding Blais will replace Lehkonen and i Think that picks + Guhle + Vedjemo is a good value for the uncertain that's Tarasenko.

What do y'all think? (yes i'll pass on Hamilton, he's going to get too much overpriced)
