claiming byron

He’s a decent player but overpaid
Tho he’s not the 20 goals scorer he was since Weegar knock him out

I hope it happens this way. A team can have a limited number of small speedy players to enter the playoff. We alrady have Gallagher, Tatar and Mete. Caufield coming in in a couple of years. A touch and interesting call from Bergevin. II he goes through waivers Mtl will get $1,075M of saving which his better than every other option. I don't think he is going to be traded.

Please no.

But why? Skinner just returned to the first line and then you pick up Byron and put him with him in the bottom 6. I don't think this is a good idea and I hope Adams won't do it, mainly because of Byron's contract, if he was UFA at the end of the season, then yes, otherwise we will probably need a lot of space in the cap to extend our RFA in the summer.

Yes the cap is bad, but it's the term that's the real issue.
