    I don't get why Edmonton is giving up 3 good assets to swap one terrible contract (Campbell) for another equally bad contract (Anderson).

    In my opinion, that trade should look like this:

    Edmonton gets: Josh Anderson and a 6th.

    Montreal gets: Jack Campbell and a 3rd.

    The only trade that is close is the Sharks one. Maybe if you took out the picks the Edmonton trade would be closer.

    Think for a second.
    You have Montreal with $15M in cap space, but you are paying to dump Armia.
    You're trading away Barron who has been developing just fine while moving two lefties to the right, and this is with Savard (and Ceci) expiring.
    You also moved Kovacevic, leaving us with basically no RHD or depth. Reinbacher and Mailloux, even if they are ready, will not be that ready that quickly.

    Because Montreal doesn't need cap space by dumping Anderson's contract. Why move him when his value is at its lowest? He will have less negative value as his contract term diminishes.
    Edmonton is the one under pressure and tight to the cap. A $5M forward on the NHL roster is better than a $5M goaltender in the AHL.

    The only reason Edmonton would ever trade Campbell is to create cap room...so why the hell would they swap him for an equally bad player making $500k more money?

    Reallocating how they spend their cap. AHL dollars to NHL dollars, goaltender to forward, potential contributions vs zero contributions, a player that can be sheltered vs one that cannot.
    If you are going to spend $5M anyway, it should at least be someone you can deploy on your NHL roster.
    Sure, they can offload Campbell and use that cap elsewhere. I didn't say they couldn't. I'm only saying there's no reason for Montreal to offload Anderson so they aren't going to get a "discount" by including him.

    There isn't much of a reason for Edmonton to do that though. And to give up Holloway, a 1st, and a 2nd for the honour of having an equally bad player makes no sense.

    They are also unloading Ceci while picking up a D and G.
    They aren't going to take Anderson unless they see positive value in him either, so you're right in that sense, but in this specific proposal it's assumed Anderson has negative value.
    With or without Anderson here it's a better deal for Edmonton than Montreal.

    Armia -- no one wanted him for free so SJ does not want him for a couple of low picks. He looks done Maybe mtl should do a Toronto and just make up an injury for him
