Ya habs easily decline

Works out since SJ certainly declines too.

There's one scenario under which I'd disagree that it would be easy. If the Habs had a second trade for Karlsson lined up. Karlsson comes in with an $8M cap hit for 4 years. The Habs could eat $4M of that, at which point you'd have to wonder what the return could be from a serious contender for Karlsson at $4M for 4 years.

It does require the Habs put away the PLD folly and focus on building a team with kids on their ELCs.

And tell me why mtl does that ?

I don't think MTL would trade Dach for Karlsson so basically to move up one spot is costing 31st over all, Mesar, Savard, Allen.... Yeah Habs don't touch that
