Add a 1st for every year of retention and it's a deal for montreal

Grier said Karlsson likely finishes the year in SJ.

But says if someone wants him, where there's a will, there's a way

I highly doubt it

Not with the level of retention needed to make Karlsson fit in Edmonton.

san jose probably wont be contending for the next 4 years so that's not a big disadvantage to them

Yes, there is a chance you could get Karlsson to fit on the roster without gutting a major piece, there is also a chance that I could share a night of passion with Catherine Zeta Jones. The odds are probably about the same for both cases.
