Description
I didn't include Barron on the roster but since he'll still be waiver exempt next season, MTL can bring him up whenever they want and send him down without fear of losing him.

It goes without saying that Wideman spends most of next season in the press box.

Other than the trades of Eddy and Andy, no need to chase UFAs. Stick to the process of development and get one more year of ****ty results and hope for another top 5 pick in 2024. By then, Hoffman, Wideman and Pitlick will be off the books and you can then chase some big time UFAs.

As for the goalies, depending on the what kind of camp Primeau has next year, he starts in MTL to delay him going to Laval. I just feel if he's sent down prior to the start of the season, he may get picked up. But once the NHL rosters are set, maybe teams skip over him. EIther way its a gamble but I'm just not sure he's NHL ready.

  1. Edmundson, Joel
Additional Details:
traded either at the deadline in 2023, draft or offseason. Not sure the return and not the point of the post.
2.
MTL
    Again, not sure what a return would be like but that's not the point of the post.
    NJD
    1. Anderson, Josh
    Additional Details:
    I believe Anderson gets traded at the draft. Not sure what the return will be and whether or not NJ would have interest. The point is if there is an opportunity to move Anderson without retaining, Hughes has to do it since trading Gally will be impossible.

    I like that overall
    But Harris is playing a lot & on the top 4
    He is ahead of Xhekaj and Kovacevic, so he will play top 4 over Kovacevic. He will make 1.4M+ IMO
    Depending where we are drafting, we should sign Monahan to a one year deal. If we draft somehow Bedard/Fantilli/Carlsson/Smith, sign him one year. If we draft Benson/Sale or a winger/dman, then we could sign someone like Bo Horvat

    I mostly agree with you but I think with Hutson coming and Guhle, Matheson and Xhekaj on the left already that Harris may also be moved this offseason. Perhaps for a RHD.

    i dont think harris is the one that goes. imo norlinder and xhekaj will both be gone soon, as much as i hate to say it.
    NYI paid handsomely for Romanov, and Xhekaj brings similar elements to his game. a team will overpay for him, the MTL fans are gonna hate it until we get the next Kirby Dach back for him.
    Norlinder is the 5th best LD prospect now (Guhle, Harris, Xhekaj, Hutson, maybe Engstrom too), and it's wasting his potential if he just sits in the AHL forever

    I really envy your future left side of Guhle/Harris/Xhekaj, especially since my left side right now is Mikey Anderson - stiff - stiff.

    Sean Durzi for Arber Xhekaj.

    like i said i think that a GM is gonna overpay for Xhekaj-- Romanov-level overpay. as in mid-level first round pick
    sean durzi isn't that, but i do like him
