Montreal drafts Demidov and he stays in KHL for the last year of his current deal

Montreal doesn't make any big moves in Free agency and sticks with a similar lineup as last year. I think the roster gives them a chance at being similar to Detroit in the sense they stay in the playoff hunt for most of the season.

I don't expect them to make it cause Ottawa Buffalo and Detroit should also stay improving while the other teams in the Atlantic shouldn't fall to far from their current stand.

Trades:
Ylonen needs a change of scenery badly, He's still fairly young and I think he can produce well in a depth scoring role. I can't see Montreal resigning him with their logjam of Wingers so unless someone like Anderson/Pezz/Gally/RHP/Armia are moved I think his spot is lost.

Barron will likely be the victim of Montreal's defensive depth. Mallioux is likely ahead of him Offensively and both have shown struggles in their own end at the AHL level and Barron at the NHL Level which makes me believe he could be expendable if MTL wants to move up in the draft.

Norlinder, Once one of the better D prospects we had has now lost his spot and is likely headed back to the SHL since im sure he'd rather play closer to home then in the AHL again.
