Assuming the cap could work for LA, which it wouldn't, I still wouldn't do it from a Habs perspective. That is a massive overpay for a good but not elite prospect.
Matheson is a legit top 4 dman on a decent contract. Ylonen and Norlinder are not throw in prospects. That 2nd rounder is going to be low in the 2nd round. That's a ton of value for essentially Spence. I need to see more of him at the NHL level before dropping that kind of value on him.
I don't mind just going after Walker just as a replacement for Wideman or something but it has to be for somewhat cheap because the Habs don't need to be overpaying for literally anything right now while they're rebuilding and Walker isn't that great anyway. Not too mention that when Eddy and Matheson are back healthy, the Habs will have a decent top 6 D. Eddy and Harris will play the right side when everyone's healthy again.
