That is so bad for Habs. MEV deal is ten times worse than Alzner. He is signed until he is 40 at 7 million and he is already 33. Then you ask for one of their top prospects and a 1st for Timo.

Thanks for the feedback. In the offer I retained 15% on Vlasic which drops his AAV right under $6m.

According to the Athletic, the Sharks & Habs discussed a Vlasic trade at the start of the season and Vlasic was open to waiving to go back. The Athletic has also reported that the Habs are considering buying out Alzner this offseason.

After watching the Habs impressive postseason, adding a player like Meier who is still only 23, would be a big get for Montreal. He would look great next to JK or NS for the next 7-10 years. He plays a style that was missing from their roster in the postseason.

Vlasic, despite his flaws, still delivers in the playoffs. If the Habs want to go on a run in the next couple of seasons with Price & Weber, he would help them more than hinder them. The French connection is an added bonus.

Timo to get rid of MEV might be an over pay, but not to get a 1st and a top pospect. I know Hab fans like their french connection but even they will say NO.
