Duclair won't get that much. I'd be surprised if he even got over 3

1-Duclair isn't even worth 2 millions
2-McCarron is not even an NHLer, so forget about him being on the third line...

Rumor has it that the Habs offered more money than anyone else, ergo my assumption

5 Mil is still way to much for a guy that wasn't good enough to be qualified

This team you have makes sense, except for the money.

Duclair at 3yrs/2.5M$ makes more sense. Plek will sign again, you know it, I know it, everybody knows it. Hopefully at 1.5M$ or less. Danault will get a "transition contract" for 2 years at 2.5M to 2.9M per. Same for DLR, but at 2M$.

Plek/DLR/McC fighting for 3rd/4th line C.

D makes sense, no nedd to sign guys long term.

Montreal needs to take more contracts like Steve Mason's, combined with decent prospect and picks for low return. Montreal needs to be in the bottom of the league for the next 2 years (sorry Carey/Shea) and concentrate on the 2020-21 season.
