Thread: Habs after 2 years of tanking
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadaBing</b></div><div>You need to bridge Cole for 3 years at $5M then give him the 8year deal. This way he will be 32-33 yrs old at the end of that 8 years</div></div>

It will depend on what he doesn’t next season. If he score 30 and goes over 60 points he will command nore then 5 millions on a bridge deal. Then might be better to sign him long term if the avv is good or sign him on a 4 years bridge deal to maximize is contract before he get the big juicy one. Then Se will vet off the hook Price money, Gallagher will have 2 years left and Habs could afford to trade him. Futur is pretty exciting. We didn’t have much reason to be optimistic in the past 25 years. They finally looking to go i. The right direction go habs go !!

Thread: Philly fans
Habs likely can't flip Ristolainen if they are also retaining on Petry. Nor will they be likely to retain on Petry.
This would indeed be an off season trade, after Petry has shown the first half of this season was an anomaly.

Montreal would prefer taking Frost, Ristolainen, and retention out of the deal. It's still possible with Frost in place of the 1st. (We are assuming lottery protection if the 1st is involved.)
Either option is worthy of consideration.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>The bigger question is whether Petry is gonna be worth 5m for three full years? Flyers probably feel they can keep those young assets and spend 5m on UFA next season instead of obtaining Petry.</div></div>

The RHD market isn't promising. Letang likely isn't going to Philly. Klingberg will cost more in money and term. The rest will be cheaper but most are less effective players in general.
If I could go back and trade Poehling and a 3rd for a top 4 RHD instead of signing Savard, I wouldn't even hesitate.
