that anderson contract is so bad for what he brings

You wouldn’t need to pay to get albatross Anderson, lol, but why would you want to get him at all?

Habs accept

Of course you would. Anderson is a glorified Armia lol

Not really, Anderson's value comes from his ability to carry the puck up the ice with speed (a skill that is actually helpful to the Habs and might be useful for the Penguins), while Armia is good at protecting the puck along the boards in the offensive zone to establish a cycle (a skill that is totally wasted on the Habs currently). The problem with Anderson is that he's paid more than he's worth, while Armia simply isn't worth keeping around.

I don’t dislike Anderson, but I just wouldn’t pay him that money. If he was making 2-3 million dollars a year then most teams would want a guy like him.

that one way to get fleeced by MTL

Half the reason Calgary would be moving Vladar is purely for the cap space. Rutta completely contradicts that

Anderson is very useful in any team... help creating gaps between Def vs Forward in the neutral zone as they need to respect is speed and size.
I agree is Hockey-IQ is very poor... won't score more than 20G a years but is still valuable.
Contract wise... Normal nothing fancy and at 5,5M it is not consider as a cap dump as many players who score:20G-20A makes in that range... just like Taylor Hall in Boston

MTL trade is pretty bad.

Worse goaltending as well
