Except Petry, every speculated player to be on the move has moved. Petry is probably an offseason move. I think they have an AHL move coming at some point to give Laval some extra depth.

I like Hoffman but I think he wold get a higher return than Gallagher; I also would like to see if St-Louis can help Gallagher change his game like he said he is trying to do. So, Hoffman and Petry in the off-season for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I am happy camper, as is. Didnt think both Lehkonen & Kulak would both be moved, had hoped so but. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Gallagher, it’s just a gut feeling but I don’t think They see him as part of the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can live with two more years of Hoffman (and he probably leaves at the deadline when he's UFA), but a broken down Gally at 5x6.5M is a ball and chain that we'd be lucky to unload on someone else.

I would look for a team with a $2.5-3.5M "bad" contract with 3+ years of term who hopes they can resurrect Gallagher ... rather than retaining salary ... you can more easily buy-out, or trade with retention, a smaller contract ...I say 3(likely++) yrs because by then the cap may be moving up and Brendan's AAV not be as much of a factor.

dlbalr Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 We'll see if there's a taker in the summer when the salary is a little lower (I'm guessing it's still Arizona). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 Copp to the Rangers for a couple of second rounders. Dadonov to the Ducks, return TBD. That frees up some cap room for Vegas to bring Martinez and Stone back later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habs Fan in Edmonton Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Bottom line, you have to be really pleased with everything Hughes has done. A lot of good prospects to follow, entry draft should be fun and we will see what free agency brings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are Oilers that hard up for d-men? I thought I heard it was gonna be a buyers market with 300 d-men up for offer? But, Habs got what they asked for, it seems.

I wouldn't rule out Tampa due to the cap hell they are in, but Arizona is probably the safe bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
