With retention I would think the Capitals would be looking for a decent prospect or a third rounder for Ed

Give me a counter offer

OTT declines

Habs can easily accept that !

But what happen to Veleno ? He haved a massive start this season.

Desperately need a RD but not enough to take a pylon with term.

They don’t want Ceci, Dumba, Holl or any of those bums. It would be a legit RD who’s good

Yzerman isn't trading Jonatan Berggren for a pending UFA Berggren only gets moved in package deal for Jakob Chychrun.

Pass on Savard.

The dude trades for Edmundson and then healthy scratches him.

Kent Hughes decline that easily
You need to think how management think

Savard 50% retained got traded for a 1st + 3rd and DET retained another 50% for a 4th rd pick

K. Hughes said he doesn't want to trade him, so unless we get at least a 1st rd pick, David Savard will be a Habs next year

These keep getting worse and worse

They can't, trading 3 contracts for 1 is a problem for montreal regardless of value

Red Savage and we will throw in a 4th while he is retained.

mtl has savard with an extra year, and kovacevich, big young servicable good cap.

maybe one of them?

Lost the fourth line center job to Fischer and is currently playing left wing on the third line

no, the sens need a GOOD defensive right shot defenceman. not an overpaid pylon. we've got more than enough bad defensive right shot defenceman.

Habs decline, Veleno hasn't done anything in any pro league in 6 years post draft. Czarnik is another small guy which we don't need anymore of and Maata is a LHD of which we have a half dozen of so no need for him either.
