As a Habs fan, why on earth would TB do that !?!

Deal

This is horrible for Tampa

They get out of a 6+ million guy who cant get to 50 points?

TB is more than Happy to pay that 6.25 keep your quantity over quality garbage

Awful deal for TB, and why is Barre-Boulet still here? Have we not learned from all his previous stints that this guy is not an NHL-level player?

Sure cause 20/20+ Selke caliber 2C's don't get paid 🙄 assinine logic

The habs went through this with Danault a few years ago. Theres a ceiling of what people will pay a defensive centre who isnt particularly productive.

Hes a good player but to pay him 6+ long term is a lot. Combine that with a full nmc. Its not a good contract
Hes being paid as a 1st line forward.

Cirelli is younger better salaries are going up TB IS MORE THAN F***ING HAPPY TO PAY THAT CONTRACT. That offer is certainly no favor

They wouldn't
