You’re over the cap with a 21 man roster

Yes buy out mike smith instead of letting him sit on LTIRetirement and trade a pick for Simmonds

over the cap + you downgrade both players in that habs deal. no thanks

Habs still reject. They need to be “blown away” by an offer for Anderson. And given the current state of their defence Edmundson is extremely valuable to them. Here they downgrade both players and grab two measly draft picks. Not happening

Keep in mind puljujarvi has potential as a top 6 guy, younger than JA.

So at his best he can maybe be Josh Anderson? Then I’d rather just Josh Anderson

The only thing I'd do is: Edmundson + Anderson for Bouchard + Pulijujarvi + 2nd
And sorry, if anyone was making fun of you, we didn't mean it like that, trust me, I know how it feels, it's fine. They do that to everyone.
Just keep grinding, and listening to what people say, and all will be good!

Lol, thanks man, I'm aware it wasn't actually personal or anything, just trying to address what everyone is mentioning.

Edmundson over barrie defensively, need that kaner replacement

Alright, couldn't tell

Holloway and a 1st are missing from the habs trade for some reason

Bruh

Bro Anderson is literally a worst contract Kassian why are you trading anything for him... Hes a cap dump!

Anderson sucks are you guys serious lmao

Sigh… the tweet speaks for itself:

It would have to be real significant. Habs turned down some serious offers for Anderson before the March 21 trade deadline. My sense is K. Hughes never mentions his name to his GM counterparts but they keep asking about him. Habs aren't planning on moving him, but never say never

Yup teams should sell the farm on a player making 5.5X5 avg less then 0.5 ppg yes please! Just because Lebrun tweeted!!!!

..

Wow you completely misinterpreted this. I’ll help you out here, Lebrun isn’t saying that teams are going to pony up and make serious offers, he’s saying they already have.

You've got it all wrong. Here's why.

He's among the very best in the league in on-ice impact:

CF% Rel: 4th among all forwards
FF% Rel: 5th
SF% Rel: 4th
GF% Rel: 5th
xGF% Rel: 3rd

Puljujarvi is already a MUCH better player than Anderson, plus he's cheaper and younger.

beside mcdavid, he can put up 60 pts, a poor mans kaner

It's unlikely he returns, I actually think your somewhat correct, but being realistic a habs trade has been rumoured, Anderson is a much better finisher

Anderson has scored more than 19 goals just once in his career, 4 years ago. He has scored more than 32 points just once in his career, 4 years ago. He's a cap dump.

Keep him.
