Description

It’s clear that Slafkovsky, like Wright is not ready for the NHL just yet. In terms of destination, developing chemistry with Mesar, be it in Laval or with a junior club (facilitating a trade to get them on the same team) would be good as they both get used to the NA game and playing surface.

Habs are also taking their time with injuries. Matheson and Edmundson are now out for a while so that means our young defence is going to get an extended look.

This morning, Schueneman was recalled and he’ll be the 7th D or give one of the kids the odd night off.

Trades are based off of the player’s max value at the trade deadline and full salary-retained.

Trades

MTL

Placed on waivers

ANA

Drouin, Jonathan

Additional Details:

Drouin was left as a healthy scratch and is amongst our most expensive forwards. He’s a UFA after this season.

MTL

Suzuki, Ryan
2024 3rd round pick (CAR)

CAR

Monahan, Sean ($3,187,500 retained)

Additional Details:

A serviceable depth option for a contender like Carolina (can play C and LW). Would expect Montreal to fully retain on a deadline deal. He could bounce back and be a middle-6 contributor.

MTL

2025 2nd round pick (COL)

COL

Dadonov, Evgeni ($2,500,000 retained)
2023 4th round pick (PIT)

Additional Details:

Another middle-6 contributor that can help a contender (if you check his no-trade-list first). Buyer beware, he’s as defensively liable as Hoffman.

Buyouts

Karl Alzner: $833,333

Retained Salary Transactions

Sean Monahan: $3,187,500 (50%)
Evgeni Dadonov: $2,500,000 (100%)

Canes deadline acquisition is Max Pacioretty. Trading for Monahan makes no sense, especially when the cap space could be used to actually bring Patches in immediately. Not to mention that the Canes will have to drop someone from the top 6 to the “4th line” to fit Patches into the lineup, so acquiring Monahan wouldn’t make sense for that purpose either.

I just used Carolina as an example. But yes I agree.

I didn’t say “claimed” though, just “placed”

Canes will need an experienced 2C for a run at the cup. Clearly their weakest position with Trotcheck departure.

Not saying Monahan will be the best option available, but it does make sense. Don't you dare saying KK can do the job against NYR or TB...
