Sujet: Weaponizing Draft Capital And Cap Space
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TrueCanuck</b></div><div>Price isn't waiving his NMC. You can't say for certain Seattle wouldn't take him, even with his contract. If he's available, he's a big name goalie that they can market well and he's closer to home. Seattle would definitely consider taking him. &amp; Montreal wouldn't even consider exposing him. They've believed in Price from day 1, and no matter how bad his numbers have been recently, without him this team is closer to a lottery team than a playoff team</div></div>


The thought process was if Carey Price waives his NMC, you're able to protect Jake Allen who has been relatively solid this season barring the whole starter situation. In the flat cap world we're in currently, the chance that Seattle takes on a $10.5M annual cap hit for a declining Price is rather slim. On the off chance they do take Carey, it will free the previously aforementioned cap hit from the books, allowing Montreal to potentially make a splash in FA or retain the pending UFAs like Danault
