    Its quite simple. The current Habs structure means they should be competing for a cup for the next 5-10 years. The problem lies within the fact that the Habs structure is flawed drastically. We can't win a cup with this lineup and every year we wait longer to try and get that one piece, the older our two big caps (Weber and Price) get.

    As its stands, to get the most out of both Price and Weber we need to be "all in" except not only do we not have the roster to seriously compete, we also don't have the assets to trade in order to get what we need to compete.

    So to summarize:

    We can't win with this roster.
    We can't trade to get what we need to win with this roster.
    We only have a limited amount of time before our current strong assets start to decline.

    Obviously its not always about winning. Its about making the playoffs and getting large revenue from that which will have this team try to retool. So we'll be a playoff team again soon enough. Just not a cup calibre playoff team. I think most Habs fans have come to the realization that apparent "professionals" refuse to go to. The Habs need to rebuild! How do you rebuild? You trade all your big assets for futures.

    Hence trade Price.

    I look at it differently. Something just isn't right with Price. He is being beaten clean on easy shots -- seriously the kind of things that come from Jr.A players. So either he just doesn't give a s**t anymore (possible) and wants to go to a new team, or something is really wrong and the Habs are about to eat an $80M biscuit. Either way, if the return is meaningful, the Habs would be foolish to not trade him. That said, if he does want to be traded, Price needs to rattle off 3 consecutive shutouts to prove he's still able. Otherwise, we should assume he's about to be our $80M disaster.
