Sujet: Montreal Canadiens signed Michael McNiven (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>This is a very smart move. Next year McNiven can serve as the 5th goalie, going from ECHL to AHL when injuries happen. But what’s important is that he’s an RFA next year, meaning that Montreal has a goalie that fits the exposure requirements for Seattle, without having to make a trade or sign someone they don’t want to. (Since Primeau and Demchenko are exempt)

And this also means that Lindgren is definitely gone, since the habs aren’t keeping 6 goalies in the org. Worst case scenario, if we can’t trade him, I’d expect him to be loaned to another AHL team.</div></div>

The highest possibility in my opinion is that they will lose him on waivers.

Sujet: New Jersey Devils signed Steven Santini (3 Years / $1,416,667 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rebecca</b></div><div>I vote no.

Not to be contrarian but while this is a low Cap Hit for almost any player in their prime, Santini has barely begun to prove himself at the NHL level. He hasn’t made much of an impact even at the AHL level and, as NJ gains more defensive depth it’s likely that Santini is relegated to the Press Box or the AHL.

At 1.4M they can’t bury his entire Cap Hit in the AHL (most of it, but not all) for the next 3 years and so are left to carry $350k if he is unable to hack it in the NHL.

They could have likely gotten a 2y deal around $1M per and thus had the option of fully burying his salary. Now they can’t do that for the next 3 years and I don’t think the 1 extra year is worth it.</div></div>

You predicted it correctly. He's now a buyout candidate.
