Kovalchuk and Byflugien put butts in seats

Team: 2020-21 Montreal Canadiens

Description
Sign em and let our Youth develop in the AHL rather then waste their Waiver Exempt games trying to rush their development. These guys will spend the next 1-2 years waiting for our youth to step up and push them out.

Byfluglien can play RW which we could use and is insurance incase Weber's injured again as we can move him back to D. What MTL wants is him to do what Armia does and battle along the boards cycling pucks out and getting to the front of the net to hinder the goalie.

Kovalchuk i want to go back to playing with Suzuki-Armia as all 3 had great numbers before seperate when injuries/illness stretched our roster thin.

Both Kovy and Byfluglien are both signing 1 year deals for 2.5m with 2m in signing bonus guaranteed. for Kovy he's to inconsistent to get much more that said he had a huge impact on Suzuki who put up 9 points in his first 11 games at Center with kovy. Byfluglien on the other hand is taking this deal to prove he can still play in hope of getting a more solid deal next summer on a contender (assuming MTL's still isnt yet as Price-Murray could be what we need )


i'm Trading for Murray even though i think we could get him of OS for a 2nd round pick its not often those deals get made largely because they only target top stars. Murray's on a Decline and PIT is better positioned to play Jarry-Desmith tandem as they're cheaper with experience playing Tandem in the AHL together. PIT has to pay both Jarry and Murray this year with the Expansion draft this season (in this scenario) they're more likely to sell Murray then hold onto him for the Expansion after last time. (since letting MAF go they've not made a Finals but MAF has with a Fledgling team .)

I figured this was a fair return or more then Seattle will give when they claim him.
Ikonen , Lindgren and a 2nd round pick in 2021(Lindgrens purpose is to be exposed at the end of the season as PIT goalie requirement in the Expansion draft and has no value in the deal serving as a warm body to offer up)



Domi signs for 6.25m for a Full NMC at Max Term with 1m signing bonus each year guaranteed. Making him fully in control of his future for the next 8 seasons by taking a team friendly deal so MTL can afford to offer Tatar,Danault,Gallagher the same option like TBL did most of their core. The less money you take you get a modified or full NMC the more you get a modified or full NTC.

You dont Mutually Terminate if you dont intend on playing hockey or think you're capable
You're giving up 7.6m when you could sit on IR or worse case force a buyout to get paid

You dont Mutually Terminate then retire
It goes against Logic unless you're saying you yourself would piss away Millions for no reason at all
