Another thing is we could see this pick being flipped with say Hoffmann to say Anaheim as a cap dump? No rumor attatched to this, only my own belief. Islanders were rumored to announce the Kadri signing any day for almost a week now. Now that Kadri is off the table, I believe they will target Kessle. He's rumored to expect $1m-$2m AAV, my assumption would be a 1-year contract. I would assume Islanders will make a play for Kessel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it’s not bad news in purely “hockey” terms from the standpoint of a rebuilding team. But Price has been a giant for us - the last great Hab, really - and to my mind, the news has to be taken on that human level first. I guess he will go the way of Weber…”non-retired, wink wink.” What a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he is a VERY unique individual that will likely be the result ... unfortunately (from a business perspective) the structure of his contract does not allow for the "free cap hit" that made Weber's contract potentially interesting to low budget/cap-floor teams (although he ultimately ended up with a high budget team in Vegas) ... these last four years of his contract ($10.5M AAV per season) will still cost $31.25M in real salary/money, unless the contract is heavily insured (but that strikes me as unlikely).

xXx..CK..xXx Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 1) If Price is done, then we may not have another goalie of similar calibre for 20 years. Just wanted to say that while others casually scroll over the reality of his career being over. 2) I am fine with the Monahan move. It’s a good one to me.

On (1), the Habs are weird…they have this long history of finding goaltending when they need it. Sometimes that takes the form of a Steve Penney or Jaro Halak, a guy nobody sees coming who has a magical run. Sometimes it’s a Denis Herron or Jose Theodore who has 3-4 stellar years. And sometimes it takes the form of a generational goalie like Plante, Dryden, Roy, or Price. But we always seem to find le gardien somehow. That said, Price will be very hard to replace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking that Gorton will call his old 1st over all pick and get Hughes to sign Kessel. Then Hughes will flip MonaHabs in a sign a trade deal with NYI for Romy, a 1st (or Beauvillier), and possibly 1 of their goalies. Theres been numerous rumours of NYI wanting to move him and the Habs being interested in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Habs take Beauvillier the NYI could afford Monahan. With Price being in LTIR the Habs would have cap room for Beauvillier's 4+ mil and be able to sign Dach and Romy. The Habs might have to toss in Monty to get 1 of their G's though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen Beauvillier rumours before the talk that they were interested in Kadri. i.e. afaik, the NYI would need to move him to be able to sign Romanov, or anyone. Thats also why it would be so funny if the Habs manage pulling off getting Romy back. i.e. the NYI were close to signing Kadri but didnt have cap space to do it and were unable to move anyone. Then, the Habs took Monahan making it possible for the Flames to sign Kadri out from under the NYI. What do the NYI need more? a C, or a Dman? With Price out the Habs now need another goalie, and the NYI have 3. I could see a trade with NYI coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Looks like another shrewd move from Kommander Kent to add a 1st. Monahan can be flipped at the deadline if he comes back and looks like a serviceable depth C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the Habs are starting the season with 4 centers, with no need to address this issue until December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't impress when he was with the Habs, though, so I am less optimistic of him being ready for the NHL anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
