Thread: REALISTIC As Possible
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PuckPal</b></div><div>I don't get where people think Marner is going to get almost 2 million more than Kutcharov got? His max he could see is 9.5 but realistically seeing Kutcharov is a more proven player he will at max see 9 million. Cause if they need to goto 11 to resign him to 5 making him the highest paid winger in the NHL they might as well sign him to 8 cause not only is that not a discount like matthews just signed it overpaid by 2 million.</div></div>

Kucherov is an outlier due to the way taxes work in Tampa. Canadian teams need to offer more money in their contracts to compensate for such.

Kapanen's contract seems solid, Marner is probably getting something in that ballpark (inb4 11.16mil), rest seems fine.

Thread: Price to STL...again
Wew this thread is nutty. Price and Weber are not going anywhere, period. We took Weber specifically so that he would retire as a Montreal canadian. If you look at habs prospects we've planned to draft players to eventually grow to replace them when they get older.

Weber is a vet, but his skill set and his strengths are going to regress at a slower pace then others. I'd say he has a career into his 40s, same with Price.

They are the leaders of this team, and yes, if we're honestly planning a rebuild, we should look to move them for young players, but at the end of the day Price has played the most games as our goalie then any other franchise goalie Montreal has ever had. We're <em>going</em> to retire his jersey for sure, and in 10 years time you'll see a whole generation of players who geared their game to match Webers and Prices.

Also, Montreal is not rebuilding. They won't need 3-4 years to be competitive again. A healthy Price and Weber already makes us a playoff team. and besides those two most of Montreal is under 25 years old. We're "building for the future" according to GMMB. And I'm happy with it.
