What do yall think

Will KK live up to that contract and earn more with the Habs this season
Or will Bergevin not match he goes to Carolina and IDK what happens next as the story didnt go that far lul.
Lay out your predictions or thoughts on this guys comments

I think its a little to much to ask for him to live up to it but who knows he could breakout this year

KK QA is 6.1 mill and they got Suzuki, Romanov, and Lehkonen to sign. But ironically he does not have arbitration unless it has not updated on the site yet. Even so even with arbitration he will be making more than he should putting the Canadians in a tough spot. Even with Chariot, Kulak and others gone they still need to replace em.

Man did Waddell put Bergevin in a tough spot though as no matter what he does it will hurt them

We should be okay for next year, trade one of our many wingers, bridge Suzuki and Romanov, maybe trade Allen if Primeau is ready, i don’t think cap will be too much of a problem

To the D comment, we can replace them internally, Romanov moves into top 4, Norlinder/Guhle makes the team sign depth

Even 5.185 is to much for KK at this point unless he goes on a tear next season. Cause lets be real he will sign 2 years to get Arbitration then go for a lot more money

Its possible Kotkaniemi could breakout this year , who knows. I feel like every year certain scouts write off a prospect/young player and they end up having a breakout season that season.

I think offering kk like a 5x4 isn’t bad, it’s actually pretty good money

For anyone wondering about our cap situation next year with a roster of ( only counting signed players )
Toffoli-x-Caufield
Drouin-x-Gallagher
Hoffman-Poehling-Anderson
x-x-Armia
Byron

Edmundson-Petry
x-Savard
Guhle/Norlinder-x
Guhle/Norlinder

Price
Allen

we have 17.6 in cap space to sign Romanov, Kk, Suzuki, Evans, Lehkonen + depth, if we trade Byron adds around 2.5 since you subtract for the replacement

Edit: my point, it will be hard but i can work

Even Allen could become a cap casualty depending on Primeau's progression.

Yeah but my point stands, in theory we aren’t too screwed with the cap

How does 10.2C status work? You have to have 3 pro seasons to be eligible and anything less is 10.2C. Am I understanding this correctly?

So I've been gone for 2 days on a camping trip and there's been a KK offersheet and some rumors about Eichel to Montreal...

Yet there's still no news about Dallas's goaltending situation. I'm going to quote Kuch "this is number 1 bullsh*t".

I'm currently still camping, I'm not in NB though I'm in Nova Scotia. I'm at 9 mile river currently which is close enough to Halifax. I'm in my bathroom right now waiting for the Jake Paul fight to happen so I checked CF and let's just say it passed the time.

What places in NB do you go at?
