We shouldn’t want Mantha. Aim higher.

You shouldn't want to lose Primeau without a similar goalie coming in either. Nonetheless, the rumor I read today is the Habs and Capitals are talking turkey, and it involves Mantha for Armia, in some form or another.

TB doesn't do that because they're not keeping 3 goalies up when Vasilevskiy gets back and Primeau isn't waivers exempt. Johansson has played quite well so yeah pass.

If the cost to get away from Armia is taking Mantha hell yeah we want him. While is cap hit is higher this season, he's only one year left and could become an trade asset in deadline + he's an french Canadian and grandson of one old Habs player ( Andre Pronovost ).

“Getting away from Armia” isn’t even a big deal. We’re going to have so much cap space in the coming years it’s unbelievable. If anything you can just buy him out after this season.

Yeah I don’t see it.

Washington doesn't need Mantha dumped right now, and they aren't going to take on an extra year of cap in Armia while also moving on from Protas in order to do that.

If there an contract that will be buy out, it will be Gallagher. He's an warrior who don't stop and got hearth but he have slow down so much it's not even funny.

Don't get me wrong I like Gally but at 6.5m for 4 years that so much for a bottom six player.

Zero chance Gallagher gets bought out. Way to expensive of a buyout

Yeah for sure he's right now after this season he will have 3 years left, if there an buy out for him it will be before is last year which would cost less . I wouldn't even be surprised if he's buy out when there two years left to is contract or send to team like Arizona to help the cap in some point.

I think you just wait for him to go on ltir. His body is breaking down. He’ll inevitably get injured soon

That also an very likely possibility.
