Price “might” consider waiving his NMC to go to SEA in the expansion draft... and I stress “might”.
His wife is from there (I believe).
He’s from BC (gets him closer to home).
I think he just wants out of MTL.
But does CH coaching/management/ownership want to move on? That’s the big question.
Weber: his contract is moveable. He doesn’t have any trade restrictions to start with, so he has no say in the matter. Plus, his actual salary is currently lower than his cap hit so a rebuilding team might find that appealing to reach the cap floor. He’s due salaries per year of 6M$, 3M$, 1M$, 1M$, and 1M$... even though his cap hit is north of 7M$. A rebuilding team would want that contract to reach the cap floor while paying hardly anything to him. Plus, he could provide leadership to said young group.
As for Drouin, there’s always a taker for a skilled player. I wonder if the Habs would have to eat some salary to make it work.
