Quoting: Koskinen_The_Great
It wont be but the only problem is that he needs to move one of Petry, Armia or Anderson for the cap issues the next 2 years.
If the market isn't there for Petry and Armia and you are dealing them at a loss then its better to trade Josh even though he's a valuable part of the club and its culture. Build back up Armia's value who's starred for Finland at WHC with 5 goals in 10 games last month and Petry that finished strong with 21 pts in last 30.
Lou must have really liked Josh next to Barzal in the World Championships, and he is a win now GM. I mean he's as old as time, replaces coaches in the last 10 games of the year, he's a complete wild card that doesn't care about what ppl think.
Habs easily can get a boatload off him including Beauvilier who seems like hes gone for sure because of the cap, 1st rounder and a prospect.
I predict you see Savard go to DAL
They kicked the tires on Both Petry and Savard when they thought they had to trade Klingberg
Now Klingbergs officially gone i think they'll cicle back to Savard
DAL only has 3 Right Handed shots remaining now after Klingbergs exit
I think you're right about Anderson and Lou
I just dont think they want Anderson to stop protecting Caufield just yet.
MSL placed Anderson on Suzuki-Caufields LW and they both went a PPG for the 21 games they were together.
MSL split them up because while the line succeeded Anderson was usually the guy to make the plays happen but never get a point
With Wright coming in soon a player like Anderson has even more importance
That said Matt Martin's little Cousin Condotta had a big off season as was a Key Tough Guy who helped Laval get to Game 7 of a ECF
He could easily come up and help Pezetta handle things but that would rely on Pezetta playing a bigger role (which i think is possible given we're rebuilding)
One things for sure not everyone can stay
I just hope if Anderson does go its to a team like NYI where he can be the Lehkonen in a cup run
