<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ht42</b></div><div>Kovacevic isn't really a cap dump, but I can see Boston wanted a pick because of their mistake for giving a 3rd for Peeke. Montreal will also likely want to have somes flexibility about the number of players before issues (ex : injuries). And that's also a horrible idea to send down Dvorack (and you can't execpt that's become of what happened with Armia last season).

If you think Monahan blocks our young players, just don't forget that Beck was our only C prospect in our core, and he will likely gonna take the place of Evans when his contract will gonna expire. Also, it's a bad idea to have a full C line with 4 young players, you need somes veterans like Monahan to put out somes pressures on them. And the Newhook-Monahan-Roy is also a great fit.

The Caufield line switch is just an idea, but I can expect that the 1st line will not gonna change.</div></div>

I never said Kovacevic was a cap dump, I said moving his lower cap hit for a player you are buying out at a higher hit isn't a great idea. Also if the plan is to buyout Peeke, then Boston is the one that needs to add the pick since we are basically giving Kovacevic away for free.

I think you are confused, I never said anything about sending Dvorak down to Laval, I said let his contract run out or trade him with retention, he isn't a cap dump at full cap anyway.

You do realize that we have other young centers other than Beck right? Suzuki, Dach, Newhook, Evans and Celebrini (since you have the Habs winning the lottery) we don't need to sign Monahan at 5 mil to play 3C when we already have 5 others on the roster and Beck waiting in the wings. It makes much more sense to keep Armia-NewhookGallagher together as the 3rd line and run a top 6 of Caufield-Suzuki-Slafkovsky, Roy-Celebrini-Dach and have Evans run some sort of Energy line

There isn't a contract on the roster that is hurting the organization or keeping them from resigning players or blocking the signing of other players. There are overpaid contracts but they are an annoyance not a hindrance.

BTW, there are ways around the 50 contract limit, just sign the prospects you want to their ELC then sign the vets you want in Laval to an AHL contract, it prevents the vets from being called up but also doesn't count towards the 50 contract limit.

I think its kind of funny trading guys like Kovacevic and Dvorak as if they are cap dumps but both contracts end after next season and Kovacevic's contract is less than the Peeke buyout cost, which would also have an additional year added on to it.

Monahan does not make sense, he would just be blocking younger guys from developing at the NHL level and the Armia-Newhook-Gallagher line was great near the end of the season, I would like to see them start next season together.

Why are you breaking up Caufield-Suzuki-Slafkovsky? Do you not realize they were the highest scoring line in the league from the TDL to the end of the season, it seems like a really big mistake to not go into next season with that line intact.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Anaheim declines. A bird in the hand is worth more than a bird in the bush. Odd that so many Habs fans just don't seem to grasp that.


And what happens when you draft the one of the three of them who isn't?

Like Jesse Puljujarvi, or Barrett Hayton?</div></div>

Since the late MB era the scouting team has done a remarkable job finding quality NHL prospects and our new regime has done an even better job developing those prospects. I think you know how much I like Zegras and yes I agree that the prospects might not pan out whereas with Zegras you k ow you are getting at least a 60 ish point player. My initial reaction was probably too much reaction and not enough thought so I apologize. My fear would be giving up Zegras (or another player) for 5th and having Anaheim (or any other team) take Lindstrom or Eiserman and having them end up to be Ehlers or Marner types of guys. I know it's a small risk but it's just our luck that that exact situation would occur lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Nothing in this comment made a single lick of sense.
1. Savard at 3.5M and a 3rd is hardly considered positive value
2. Mangiapane makes less than 6M
3. Mangiapane is being 25% retained in that proposal which would be cap hit of 4.35M
4. Calling Mangiapane a 3rd liner is quite ignorant, he's a middle 6er with a strong 2-way game and would still make ~6M on the open market, just like Terravainen will get this summer. He would also be 4th in even strength scoring on the Habs this season only behind their 1st line.</div></div>

LMAO, never seen anyone get so upset about a player being called a 3rd liner just to immediately agree that he is a 3rd liner just in a completely different way. In case you don't understand what I mean let me break it down for you, the 3rd line is in the middle 6, can Mangiapane playe a 2nd line role, yes but so can Gallagher and Armia (two fairly comparable two way players) but ideally like Mangiapane they don't play above the 3rd line. That doesn't mean Mangiapane is a bad player or even overpaid in today's market, just that he isn't worth as much as you think he is. Typically to be considered a 2nd line player, you need more offensive production (either 60+ points on a yearly basis or 30+ goals), Mangiapane doesn't have the production, sorry. Habs don't need anymore depth players, we need actual 1st or 2nd line players who produce more than 60 points a season, especially if we are giving up one of our defensive leaders that is playing a pivotal role in developing our young up and coming D.
