Been seeing a lot of Allen for RyJo swaps on here lately. Did I miss something in the news lately???
From MTLs perspective, I have zero interest in RyJo. His $4mil next year has ZERO appeal to it. I don't see this as another potential Monahan situation, where MTL hopes RyJo can turns things around and they flip him next year. This would be just another Armia/Dvorak like contract clogging up MTLs lineup, preventing Habs prospect from more playing time.
MTL can just run out the clock with Allen.... there's not that much pressure to move him other than Allen is probably unhappy with his situation. Not only that, if retaining salary (on any player now with MTL only having 1 retention slot left) doesn't yield at least something of value, then don't bother, save the retention spot for something else. Habs could be a broker for a 3way trade and get better value than this.
