Team: 2021-22 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 5, 2022

Published: Feb. 5, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

It's time for a rebuild in MTL. We should keep some core pieces around like Suzuki, Caufield and Romanov. We should keep some players who are a core part of the identity of the team like Price and Gallagher. We needed to keep some current players because their contracts were untradable (Anderson, Armia Byron,). And I kept some players because I think they are good mentors for the young guys (Toffoli, Edmunson).

The rest were traded for a combination of picks, prospects and NHL ready young players to teams that actually need the players and could actually trade for them.

The offense looks pretty good with more prospects on the way (see the non-roster player and reserve lists). The defense however does not look great and will need a lot of time to develop the young players on the roster and in the system. In net, hopefully Price can mentor Primeau into the starter for this up and coming team.
