Created by: Shire

Team: 2021-22 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 8, 2022

Published: Feb. 8, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

To start off, Chiarot and Lehkonen are getting a 1st OR a prospect that is close to NHL ready for sure.

The top 5 players the habs want to get rid of for sure for the deadline are Petry, Toffoli, Lehkonen, Chiarot and Kulak

WIth these trades, it does not concern me how other teams get rid of their cap.

Trades

MTL

Additional Details:

Rangers have shown interest in both players, but in this trade, itll only be either Lehkonen or Chiarot for either Kravstov or Lundkvist.

In order to get good players, you need to send good assets in return.

NYR

Chiarot, Ben ($1,750,000 retained)
Harris, Jordan [Reserve List]
Lehkonen, Artturi ($1,000,000 retained)
2022 2nd round pick (MTL)

Additional Details:

With Chiarot, you get someone who is built for playoffs. Low points but a huge plus for physicality and shutdown defense.

For Lehkonen, you get a sneaky good young defensive minded winger who can play up and down the line and still keep up. He is showing elite defensive analytics and is someone who is worth AT LEAST a first.

If I were to package the two, I would add one of Harris or a 2nd. For the sake of the trade, I will put both.

MTL

2022 5th round pick (EDM)
2023 7th round pick (EDM)

EDM

Kulak, Brett ($850,000 retained)

Additional Details:

I dont think I have to explain this one

MTL

Pelletier, Jakob
2022 1st round pick (CGY)
2022 2nd round pick (CGY)

CGY

Toffoli, Tyler

Additional Details:

No way would the habs retain on Toffoli.

Near PPG player who was top 5 in the scoring race last season. Easily one of the best contracts in the league where he is able to play with most players regardless of playstyle.

MTL

Tippett, Owen
2023 1st round pick (FLA)

Additional Details:

One of Tippett or a 1st, not both.

FLA

Petry, Jeff ($3,000,000 retained)

Additional Details:

Even with Petry being said to fetch a similar return to last year, I cannot see him getting more than a 1st OR a prospect worth a 1st.

Buyouts

Karl Alzner: $1,958,333

Habs fans are the worst in the league for overvaluing their players and prospects. Carter Savoie has outperformed Caufield in D+1 and D+2 so far by NHLe and yet they think Caufield is one of the most valuable players in the league but guys like Savoie and Pelletier are throw-ins on a trade guy with 9 goals in over half a season.

What you said about Caufield is like if I said Lafreniere/KK/Chytil were overvalued. It makes no sense, but keep trying to frame Habs fans as that.

In order to get a valuable asset, you have to return them and thats what the trade shows. Anything less than a 1st and a good prospect for Toffoli is laughable. Also dont forget that he has missed over a month to injury, so saying 9 goals in half a season is a joke.

In case you cant do math, hes leading the team in PPG by active players. Enjoy Hyman's 5.5x7 in 3 years.
