Quoting: The_Cannon
No chance from the jackets. We traded him to avoid this contract. Now he’s yours do as you wish
His contract isnt a factor. Frank Seravalli already put it out there that it's known as a more than reasonable deal and there is significant interest. Stop acting like you won the trade for Domi. Jackets had a ton of cap space. Whether you think he's overpaid or not isnt pertinent when he's an asset in demand. jackets have low balled players for years. That isn't a good thing.

24. Josh Anderson
Right Wing, Montreal Canadiens
Age: 28
Stats: 69 GP, 19 G, 13 A, 32 Pts
Contract: 5 more seasons, $5.5 million AAV
Scoop: GM Kent Hughes’ phone has rang consistently with teams inquiring about Anderson, whose skillset makes him a rare breed in today’s NHL. Anderson has skill, he can move, he’s big and has brawn. Oh, yeah, and he’s locked up for five more seasons at a very reasonable number for a guy who has knocked on the 30-goal door. To date, the Habs have resisted the urge and likely some tempting offers, but you have to at least allow for the possibility that they get a ‘Godfather’ offer they cannot refuse.
