Off-topic, but it’s crazy just how much the Habs would be screwed if Carey Price was miraculously healed

to be honest they almost have the cap space to activate him, but he will never play again. there is bunch of teams that are trying to ckntent while having contracts on LTIR that would be more screwed than us.

That’s true; but I’m saying that, right now, without the DeSmith trade, the Habs have 3 goalies that can play NHL reps — add in a 4th wheel at 10.5 million, and you’ve got a crowded, expensive list of scratches.

yeah i get that. not a good situation by any mean. I'm just saying it would not even be that bad compared to other teams ''miraculously healjng '' ltir players. imagine if the leafs got murray and muzzin back, they would be like 10 mil over the cap.

Angela Price will make sure that Carey remains injured. She runs the show.

There was a time when we had to deal with both Angela Price and Julie Petry on the same team.
