<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hammerwise</b></div><div>IMO half of their forward corps is not part of the rebuild, so theyll remain sellers.

Only 6 of their current forward corps are young enough/good enough to be of use in 2-3 seasons, and defensively they probably have just 3 guys who will evolve in 2-3 seasons to be top 6.

Guys like savard, hoffman, gallagher, andersdon, armia, edmundson, drouin, byron, price, monahan, wideman, allen, dandanov don;t really have 2-3 good quality seasons left in MTL in one way or another. Thats 13 guys out of the 26 above that need to go, be moved, as the apex of their careers is over (long over for some), but the time MTL is able to find enough youth or FAs to build a good team. And theres really only 5 quality forwards and 3 quality dmen in the above that I'd keep out of the rest. Most of the top prospects are in the above, with a couple more in minors/juniors that might find a spot

And 24mil on IR/LTIR in a clear rebuilding year, ridiculous.

Byron and Monahan are expected back, (and Id have to think CGY knows that Monahan is not coming back like he was) so theres 2 guys eating lower 6 spots, AT BEST (and likely 4th line), that are in no way part of the Habs future. So you PROBABLY have hoffman, dandanov, allen, armia, monahan and byron eating time that should be going to youth.

A clear bottom 8 team, thats too laden with flawed vets to realy engage the rebuild.</div></div>

if the team is near of the playoff, I'm not sure those players will be traded. if the team is not near, then hughes need to find a partner. Good luck lol
