Slightly over the cap, but assume MB does a bit of wiggling to make it compliant.

Who do Habs need to add to pry Rakell out of Anaheim?

Per Strickland, would need a 1st plus something.

Maybe a prospect like Norlinder or someone else that is not Caufield or one of the guys in MTL rn.

Well, if you're getting another winger, you might as well send us Caufield, since you won't really need him anymore...

(Kidding...just trying to get everyone's favorite WJHC bromance back together!)

In all seriousness though, it'd really depend on who the prospect was. I saw one this AM that was 1st+Fleury+3rd that would be alright, or something like Brook+1st. Obviously none of us really know, but I can't imagine it'll be cheap.

They're asking for a 1st + a top prospect or another piece valued at a 1st.

If they dont get that they keep him and gets at minimum what Folgino, Goodrow, Coleman etc have gotten recently at next years deadline

A good prospect who's exempt from the expansion draft. Suzuki and Guhle are too much, of course, so I'd be thinking in terms of Jesse Ylonen or Josh Brook, and I think it was I who floated the idea of the latter over the weekend.
