I'm not giving more than 8m to Hall. He tell money is not what he is looking for first and with flat cap, he can't ask more than that. I doubt a team will give him more than 8m.

I wouldn't either, but given the fact we are in Montreal, we always have to pay a little more.
I'd offer him 6 x 8 or 5 x 8,75.

If he want more than that we just pass. We can get a similar player with trade. Molson said rebuild is finish, si it's time to trade some big piece, like futur 1st rd pick for help now. Keep the 1st this year, but the next one can be traded and we have a lot of 2nd rd available to.

I'm somehow glad to hear it but did Molson really said rebuild was over ? Where did you hear that ?

Don't like the Drouin - Domi - Ehlers line. Need someone to get the puck in the corners on that line. I Like the Suzuki line though. Well balanced and i like the idea of Gally taking all these rebounds from Hall shots on net.

On "like a boss" edition 39. Molson answer to fans question. Look on the habs website https://www.nhl.com/canadiens/news/like-a-boss-39-summer-edition/c-318793046
He said they have rebuild enough for next several years.

Two rentals doesn't get you anywhere near Ehlers.

Big nope from Winnipeg

Danault would come with an extension similar as the one JG Pageau got with NYI (5 x 5-ishM)
And you can flip Tatar at deadline for assets

Still doesn't get you near Ehlers.

Drouin played with Ehlers in Halifax. They were really good together
I believe Domi will bounce back, especially on a 1-year contract.

Enjoy Adam Lowry as your 2nd C then.

I am hoping that the Lindgren trade was an "any team that will take him" trade.
The Jackets already have (2) 26 YO goaltenders...Korpi & Elvis, and about 4 goaltenders developing nicely right behind them (Vehvileinen, Kivlenieks, Tarasov, and Thome).
Not sure another G prospect in the logjam really helps.
The Jackets would more than likely trade away some F prospects or established Defensemen for draft picks.

Would you do something like Domi + Tatar + 3rd round 2021 for Ehlers + Roslovic

Nope. Tatar is a rental and Domi is only two years from UFA. Neither are worth giving up a first line winger on a bargain contract for another 5 years.

We need to keep Danault; 2 offensive C's in Suzuki and KK and a defensive stalwart in Danault is a recipe for success.
Danault 5x5 makes sense.
Domi should be traded for a W, or a Dman that will help today.

Just because You have a glut of C’s who are discontented with playing 3 or 4C in Montreal doesn’t mean we have to “settle” for a trade with you guys. Time and time again you (fans) offer 4 quarters for a dollar in hopes to get an Ehlers, Connor or Laine thinking your doing us a favor without actually giving up something of substance that will hurt. I would only move one of our big 3 wingers if one of Suzuki, KK or Romanov were coming back the other way. Danault is a nice piece but not at the expense of losing our only play driving winger (Ehlers).

Lmao no!

Just what we need . . . another LD to go with Cam Fowler, Hampus Lindholm, Christian Djoos, Jacob Larsson, Josh Mahura, Brendan Guhle and Jackson LaCombe.
