According to Russo the Canadiens are interested in Seattle defenseman Carson Soucy.


He’d be nice. Although if we get him and Savard, that means Savard is a top 4 D, which is less nice.

Edit: Never mind, I thought he was a RD. Why exactly then? Since the habs don’t seem super keen on keeping Chiarot or Romanov on the right side.

I'd much rather have only one of the two, and someone to run one of the PPs

🎉applaud

This is likely DeAngelo’s decision and not Montréal’s… but I’m still extremely happy.

We need RD Bergy not LD ( unless I’m mistaken and Soucy is a RD )

IIRC Soucy have played RD in MIN. I'm reading a comment from Russo on him and he says he can play both side.

Still, he doesnt play on PP.

Eddy-Petry
Chiarot-Soucy
Romanov-Savard

That's 1 D that can play on PP. Maybe Romanov but im not sold

Apparently we’ve signed Armia 3.4x4, decent deal, maybe a bit high AAV but he’s a good 3rd linet

My thoughts on Montréal’s cap situation going into tomorrow:

Edit: Well it appears my Armchair GM team got turned into a forum thread. For reference the stuff that was cut out is Poehling signing league minimum (not on the roster) and KK and Lehkonen both signing with cap hits of $2.5 million. The team had $13.5 million in cap space.

https://www.capfriendly.com/forums/thread/494563

Ideally I’d use:

(If we trade Kulak)
$5 million on a C
$5 million on a top 4 RHD
$3 million on a bottom pair RHD
$1 million on Perry
$1 million on Wideman

If we don’t trade Kulak:
$5 million on a C
$5 million on a top 4 RHD
$1.5 million on a bottom pairing RHD
$1 million on Perry
$1 million on Wideman

Keeping Kulak, if the Savard rumours are true:
$5 million on a C
$3.5 million on Savard
$2 million on a bottom pairing RHD
$1 million on Perry
$1 million on Wideman
$750K on Paquette

The habs could probably spend up to $9 million on one player if they went really cheap on the other open slots, but I’d say that that scenario is extremely unlikely.

Great analysis, though which FA center gets 5mil not named Danault?

It doesn’t need to be FA. I was thinking either Dvorak or Granlund. (Although Dvorak is a bit under)

Dvorak is a great option, he’s on a good contract and would be a solid 2c/ great 3c

So with Barrie off the market and Hamilton likely out of our price range, the habs will probably have to look at the trade market for an offensive RHD.

So few options for offensive RD... maybe Wideman is their guy, a la Gustafsson, even if it wasnt an ideal situation... and maybe they settle for a two-way D like Soucy that can play RD

Double shift Petry on PP? Retry Romanov? Go for 5 forwards with Drouin being the QB in PP2?

Still curious to see who Bergevin is targetting at C

As the team stands right now, Drouin is probably the QB on the 2nd unit.

I'm certainly curious about Byron's post yesterday... I wonder if he's going to be traded

That’s not the way I took it, but I guess it could be a possibility? The only reason to trade him would be if we signed Dougie Hamilton or traded for Eichel, since no other player would break our cap situation.

So it seems like the Paquette & Savard rumours are true, with Savard on a 4 year deal. Hoping league minimum for Paquette, and the Edmundson contract for Savard.

Damn, Granlund’s off the market. No way we could’ve matched that contract because of taxes, though.

We still have a hole at Center and top 4 D but yeah, MB has been adding good depth, still waiting on Perry too

We still need a 3C (or 2C) and another bottom 6 winger. Would also love another top 4 defender

Dea replaces Blandisi.
Belpedio replaces Olofsson.
Paquette replaces Staal/Frolík.
Wideman replaces Gustafsson.
Savard is either a downgrade on Weber or an upgrade on Merrill, depending on what else the habs do.
