Montreal is not paying to move Petry and won't take less than a 1st for him.

Petry is old and he has term left with big money! His better days are behind him and he is not worth a 1st because of his contract ! Maybe we could not take salary, but i don't think this will happen!

He is 34 not 64, he is playing at a .5 ppg rate which is on par with his last 4 seasons so his better days are not behind him and yes a top 4 RHD scoring at a .5 ppg clip (even a 34 year old) is worth a 1st +.

We will have to disagree on that ! Even if he has a .5 ppg, because of his contract, term + money, he wont get a 1st.

Oilers accept.

Easily

Weighing in from the side of the team Petry's being traded to here, any sense of Pittsburgh - or anyone honestly - giving up significant assests for Petry is delusional. And Letang's asking price is rumored to be close to $8 mil per year at 4-5 years. I think both are a little high but crazier things have happened. If Montreal offers him 6.4, he probably won't be wearing a Habs jersey anytime soon.
