I'm a little confused? Are you saying that Alzner and Byron are signed to good intermediate contracts?
I'll be blunt, all of Montreal's long-term deals look terrible within the context of next years cap crunch.


Here is Montreal's entire 8-man roster signed past this season:


$10,500,000 x 6 years = <strong>Price</strong> (34)
- $8,000,000 x 6 years = <strong>Weber</strong> (36)
- $5,500,000 x 3 years = <strong>Drouin</strong> (26)
- $4,500,000 x 2 years = <strong>Alzner</strong> (32)
- $3,500,000 x 4 years = <strong>Edmundson</strong> (28)
- $3,500,000 x 3 years = <strong>Byron</strong> (32)
- $3,500,000 x 2 years = <strong>Chiarot</strong> (30)
- $2,000,000 x 2 years = <strong>Kulak</strong> (28)
---------------------------
Total Cap-Hit = <strong>$41,000,000</strong> (50% of ceiling)
Average Cap = <strong>$5,200,000</strong> (8 players)
Average Age = <strong>32 years</strong> (36 at expiry)


And here are estimates for who they have to sign to stay average:


- $6,000,000 = <strong>Tatar</strong>
- $6,000,000 = <strong>Petry</strong>
- $6,000,000 = <strong>Domi</strong>
- $6,000,000 = <strong>Danault</strong>
- $6,000,000 = <strong>Gallager</strong>
- $5,000,000 = <strong>Kotkaniemi</strong>
- $4,000,000 = <strong>Lehkonen</strong>
- $4,000,000 = <strong>Armia</strong>
- $2,000,000 = <strong>Mete</strong>
- $2,000,000 = <strong>Weal</strong>
- $2,000,000 = <strong>Hudon</strong>
- $2,000,000 = <strong>Allen/2G</strong>
- $1,000,000 = <strong>Poehling</strong>
- $1,000,000 = <strong>Juulsen</strong>
- $1,000,000 = <strong>Fleury</strong>
---------------------------
Signing Costs = <strong>$54,000,000</strong> (15 players)
Roster Totals = <strong>$95,000,000</strong> (23 players)
---------------------------
Cap Overage = <strong>$13,500,000</strong>


There will be a purge in Montreal next summer (and they don't have the prospects to replace the losses).
And it's clear that Bergevin won't trade any of the good pending UFA's for futures this fall (but he should).


<strong>TLDR - The intermediate contracts you praise are about to sink Montreal for years. </strong>

lmao thats why we trade players

but both of you are right

intermediate contracts like kulak/Danault/Gallagher/armia/lehkonen/drouin have been great for the canadiens

but the bad ones like byron/alzner/edmunson are gonna be trouble
