<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OlegP</b></div><div>Can’t move Byron and Allen, it would cost assets in this climate. Wait for expansion. I don’t think Hoffman moves the needle enough to put them over the top.

Team will contend once Kk and Suzuki reach full potential.

Priority should be figuring out Danault salary demands as he can’t sign over 5 million per with allotment of money already given for 2021

Bergevin seemed like he’s done for this season after getting emotional in press conference following Gallagher signing</div></div>

Not impossible to move Byron and Allen but not easy yes. Hoffman on a 1 year deal helps us! His left handed shot and sniping ability would help our PP. This Habs roster is more complete than I have seen in over a decade or more and I think we are going to give other teams fits! If I can add Hoffman for one year and unload Byron and Allen, I'm doing it! Byron needs to be moved anyways (this year or next). Allen's contract would be attractive to a team like the Hawks or Devils who need goalie help.

Once KK and Suzuki reach full potential, Weber is gone and Price is 35+. Waiting is stupid when the Habs have a great mix of youth, mid core, and vets.

Danault negotiations is probably about term more than AAV. He's worth more than $5M but not more than $6M. He's somewhere between Pageau and Nelson on the Islanders. But once again, term could be an issue. Bergevin is going to play hard ball on that and he should! Danault probably plays the final year of his contract before we give into his demands. Solid piece we need with our young centers mix but yeah, ideally, His AAV should be around $5M. I expect something like 3 years at $5.5M. If he thinks that is in an insult, good luck with free agency! Circle back when other teams tell him the same!

Bergevin is not done 100%. Adding Hoffman does seem like it won't happen but you never know. Did you expect Toffoli to sign that team friendly deal? I bet you Habs fans thought Bergevin was done before that too! Bergevin said it's like a 7/11... always open for business. Another 2+ months of off season to go.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drewjenkins</b></div><div><strong>Here's my quote:</strong> "His career average is around 40 points."
<strong>Here's the math:</strong> Career points / 8 NHL seasons = <strong>41.7</strong> points

- <strong>41.7</strong> points per season is around 40 points no?
- That is a verifiable fact
- That is not a BS opinion
- That is not exaggeration
- I'm not wrong in any sense
- You owe me an apology mister




<strong>Here's my quote:</strong> "95% of players massively regress way before they turn 35."
<strong>Here are the facts:</strong> There will be a max of 31 players over the age of 34 in the NHL next season (excluding goalies).

- That number includes signed 35+ and unsigned 35+ players (who played last season)
- That's a maximum of one 35+ player per team (and each team has a 23 player roster)
- 1 out of 23 = 4.3% which means that only 4.3% of NHL players are 35 or older
- Which means that 95.7% of players regressed into retirement by age 35.
- <strong>95.7%</strong> of players is around 95% of players no?
- That is a verifiable fact
- That is not a BS opinion
- I'm not wrong in any sense
- You owe me an apology mister




<strong>Toronto currently has:</strong>

- Spezza (36), Simmonds (32), Andersen (31), Bogosian (30), Muzzin (30)
- And all these players have appropriate cap-hits and terms.
- Gallagher, Anderson, Weber, Petry and Price do not.
- And they'll all become anchors, just like Alzner.

<strong>And you need anger management mister</strong></div></div>

Keep trying. Gallagher will be fine and you will be wrong. Can't believe you are comparing Spezza, Simmonds, Andersen, Bogisian to Gallagher. What a joke. I'm not angry, I'm calling out your BS. Let me guess, you are a Leafs fan eh. If the Leafs signed Gallagher to that contract, you would consider it the signing of the year! lol

Tavares is signed till 34 ($11M). You are going to have a huge problem with him from 30-34 eh! Like Gallagher right?

Others signed till 34 or more with higher or similar cap hits vs Gallagher... Stone, Voracek, Couture, Lee, Kreider, Schenn. Many, many more!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drewjenkins</b></div><div><strong>Which one did I say?</strong>

1. "His career average is around 40 points"
2. "His career average is around 40 points per 82 games"

Everything you criticize after that becomes irrelevant since you picked the wrong statement.

<strong>And by the way my man:</strong>

95% of NHL players massively regress way before they turn 35.
Especially grinders and physical forwards. Don't believe me?

<strong>Age last season:</strong>

31 - Milan Lucic
32 - Brandon Dubinsky
32 - Nick Foligno
31 - Pat Maroon
31 - Jordan Stall
27 - Ryan Johansen
27 - Mike Ferland
31 - Kyle Okposo
32 - Bobby Ryan
34 - Corey Perry
31 - Wayne Simmonds
34 - David Clarkson
34 - Loui Eriksson
34 - Mike Richards
30 - Jamie Benn
29 - Marcus Johanson
27 - Nick Bjugstad
33 - Troy Brouwer
32 - James Neal
35 - Ryan Kesler
35 - Rick Nash

<strong>Any still in their prime form?</strong></div></div>

You are cherry picking. Some decline faster than others but most top 6 talent have solid years from 29-34. The ones not committed to staying in tip top shape are the ones who fall faster than others. Gallagher is a fitness freak. You are way to negative on this. In fact, there are more players who maintain their level of play from 30-35 vs the ones who drop fast like Gomez types. And each players situation is different. You are trying to create a linear approach which is flawed!

Every team needs key vets from 30-35. I think many overlook that. Leafs and Oilers need pieces like this.

40 pts player BS!!!!!! I called you out on it and you have two choices. Admit you were wrong or keep arguing against something that is fact! You provided another BS opinion... 95%? Where did you pull that number from? Exaggeration don't help your case bud! I think you need to spend more than 5 min of research but you won't! You are stuck on a flawed stance and continue on. Same BS Habs fans were saying about Weber since we acquired him and no... he's not in massive decline! Keep trying! Randomly naming 20 guys don't prove anything.
