If nobody gives him the right deal, he could change his mind about playing in MTL. On a one year deal, he knows he’ll see the net, and he knows that he’ll get moved at the deadline and can control his own destiny. Plus, he can get a good deal in Montreal, and knows that the Habs will retain 50% at the deadline, making him available as an insurance plan to every team in the league.

Scenario…
Signs 5M$ deal, with 4M$ being bonus money at signing. By trade deadline day, there will be less than 50k$ in actual salary to pay, and he’ll only add a little less than 400k$ in cap hit to a team.

With those kinds of numbers, every playoff bound team would love to have him.

Sujet: Habs fans what you think
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Subbanator7667</b></div><div>Pretty easy no. JVR has been on this downward trend for years, Pertys is recent and likely going to stop heading down as soon as he is some where he can be with his family.</div></div>

Any trade for Petry involves us taking a contract back. If JVR was in the last year of his deal, I’d be all over it. The fact that he has another year after this one… I’m hesitant.

Part of me knows we likely won’t be competitive next year so it’s irrelevant. Part of me think we may be trading a headache for a tumor.

The gamble could be to turn JVR around, trade him at the next deadline with retained salary, and score another asset.

But back to the original point: this is likely the kind of trade that gets Petry moved now.

Waiting until summer could “possibly” get us out of taking on a contract… possibly…
