Bad move for Montreal. Moving Petry here is doing so at the nadir of his value - but at least he's not a goal scorer that forgot how to score goals like JVR. Yeah, JVR's contract disappears faster, but if I'm the Habs I take the chance that Petry rebuilds some value next year - worst case scenario, you're still trying to dump him at the 2023 deadline, except now he has a year less of term for the acquiring team to try and get a ransom for.
Yeah but Petry has been wanting out for a while now and Habs fans have been pretty HARSH on him
I would want out 100% for sure. I think he'll be moved this offseason guaranteed. Habs will have to take a dump back with similar term. JVR only has 1 year left.
JVR is owed 5 M$, Petry is owed 20 M$, without even mentioning the signing bonuses
It's a lot of money to everybody. I'm sure the Flyers would care. They are also the ones here giving up a 22 y/o player who might not reach his full potential, but could still be a quality player in this league

Going to have to add a 1st to that or remove JVR and add a decent prospect
It would have to be a protected first because Montreal can't risk to give up a high pick here
