Sujet: Montreal Canadiens signed Jeff Petry (4 Years / $6,250,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Im happy with it. I would have prefered higher cap but one less year of term but its not worth losing sleep over. Petry has been borderline top pairing for us. Yeah hes getting old but his foot speed is still great. Had it showed signs of decline, i might be a little worried.

Even if he declines a bit, he'll still be a top 4 and considering UFAs arent lining up to sign in MTL, this is more than fair. What was the other option? Play Noah Juulsen instead? Sign Pietrangelo?

There werent any other realistic options for the Habs and resigning good players who WANT to stay should be paramount for the Habs. Its hard enough to get them here in the first place.</div></div>

The Edmundson's deal and then Petry's signing are telling me that the asked price for Dumba was too high.

That was the best option IMO (and pretty much only one.. Maybe Risto?), but hey, it takes two to tango.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gretzkyghosts</b></div><div>LOL, I guess you missed my second sentence, so let me repeat it "If you think Kulak is worth a 2nd, great that is your opinion."

You made a sarcastic comment,
I gave you evidence to dispute your comment,
you do not reply to my rebuttal of your obviously false opinion,
then make another sarcastic comment to a different persons opinion.

So because you obviously missed the purpose of my post here it is again "I guess I should ask, "How's Montreal's Dcore doing?""
By all measures, it pales in comparison to Buffalo's.

But since you bring up Kulak, he definitely would be in the press box nearly every night if he was in a Buffalo uniform and not play 56 games averaging 17:08/gm
He does not KP, he gets sheltered starts only Fluery had a higher % of OZstart and only Petry had a lower PDO.
Kulak would not be my choice of 7th defenseman for the Sabres, much less top 4.
If you want to comment to Little do it.
If you want to comment to me, I welcome it, but you have not.
I doubt you will because everything I said it accurate.</div></div>

Since you love nitpicking numbers that fit your narrative, plz focus on the % of chances I put you in my ignore list: 100

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gretzkyghosts</b></div><div>OK now you have my attention.
If you think Kulak is worth a 2nd, great that is your opinion.

How is Buffalo's defense, you ask sarcastically with a smirk!
I would imagine if Buffalo had Price in net, they would rank even higher.
Regardless, with Ullmark and Hutton in net, arguable the worse GK tandem in the NHL, only 9 teams gave up fewer 5 on 5 goals, and all of them were in the playoffs.
Let me add Montreal did a much better job of controlling the puck than Buffalo ranking 2nd in shots attempt, while Buffalo was 2nd last.
Yet, Buffalo defense gave up fewer 5 on 5 goals than Montreal.
Where did Montreal's 5 on 5 GA rank? Nineteenth, I guess I should ask, "How's Montreal's Dcore doing?" Not as well as Buffalo's is the obvious answer.
I think one should know the answer before asking a question that just demonstrates ones lack of knowledge.

It makes total sense to trade for Kulak then, so that MTL 7th Dman can help improve BUF amaaaaazing top 4...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KMMHL2012</b></div><div>I don't debate any of that, but who do you displace on the roster on the left side?

Lehk in this roster is the 4LW, and he actually has more upside, plays defensively, can skate.

So, Chiasson brings nothing to this team but physicality, and Montreal isn't designed to bring a slow skating big guy into the team, they are built around speed and tenacity, he'd almost certainly be an instant scratch as the style of player doesn't fit the philosophy of the team.

even if you roll him to the right, with hypothetically getting Virtanen, Virtanen and Armia have more upside. Tatar is your #1, and benching Byron at a higher cap hit doesn't make sense.

Unless Byron is moved, I don't see how you can chase down another 4th liner, makes no sense financially and makes no sense in the style of play</div></div>

You overthink Byron beeing out of the line up. He has been in and out the line up for nearly 2 years now because of injury.

The depht chart and the salary chart are two different thing.

Once Domi goes, Byron will get more icetime.

As for Chiasson having no "upside", what ever that means, he can still score 10-15 goals a year and play up and down the line up. He did score 20+ playing with McDavid 2 years ago.

Those moves ARE Bergyesque!
