Team: 2021-22 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Nov. 30, 2021

Published: Dec. 1, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

My take If there's a full rebuild, All of the players I have as being gone does not mean they will be traded this year. I do believe the team will be a lot different come next seasons training camp though.

Forwards

Anderson: Safe - Old enough to be a leader and young enough to be effective in 3 years + Contract is hard to move
Armia: Gone - Contract is moveable, but probably leaning towards cap dump
Byron: Safe - no reason to pay for a Cap dump
Caufield: Safe - Part of the Future
Drouin: Safe - One more year with bad deal then can sign to less to be a good leader for the team
Dvorak: Safe - Could easily be gone but he's still young and he will be a fringe 2 and solid 3C for the rest of his contract
Evans: Safe - just signed and he's great option for 3/4C as a shutdown guy
Gallagher: Gone - I think He'll want to win, MTL might have to retain with a similar situation as the leafs did with Kessel
Hoffman: Gone - A top 15 team would always be looking to add a player like hoffman, Term might be an issue
Lehkonen: Gone - Solid player, one of my favourites but I think he'll be gone at this years TDL
Paquette: Gone - Should already be gone IMO
Poehling: Safe - Part of the Future, is finally showing consistency in his compete levels
Perreault: Gone - Grinder depth for a competing team
Suzuki: Safe - Future #1, He's always showing how great of a player he is.
Toffoli: Gone - Same as Hoffman, any team looking to fill a middle 6 shooter role would be lucky to have Toffoli

Defense

Chiarot: Gone - Should be traded by the TDL this year
Edmundson: Safe - Good Deal for a strong and smart defensively minded D
Norlinder: Safe - Part of the Future
Petry: Safe - This might surprise people but I think he can be a good leader to our young D, I think he's just in a bad slump this year and will do better next year(hopefully)
Romanov: Safe - Part of the Future
Savard: Safe :( - Contract not Moveable
Wideman: Gone - Ether FA next year or sold at the TDL
Kulak: Gone - TDL or FA at seasons End
Niku - Safe - Low Risk and Medium reward

Goalies

Price: Safe - Now, I'm sayings he's safe based on MTL only doing a 2 year Rebuild, if they think it will be more then I think he's gone but they have the pieces to make it quick while Price can still play good hockey
Allen: Gone - I could see Allen being sold by the TDL and the team Keeping Monty till years end.
Monty: Gone - Don't see them keeping him past this season as they have Primeau and McNiven to Develop
