    The MTL.png.8cf374fa7c1cc4e18dca24a95b62484f.png @Habs4Life have re-signed:

     

    Scott Laughton - 2 years x 2.6M (1.3M AAV)

    Adam Erne - 2 years x 2.2M (1.1M AAV)

    Chandler Stephenson - 2 years x 1.6M (0.800M AAV) 

    We are happy to get these young RFA players signed to solid deals that give them raises while keeping our cap in line. We are expecting them to be ready to compete for spots on our NHL team this fall.

    Huge insult to the owner of the Hurricanes to even suggest, to even think they cant afford 21 million.

    Pathetic move by Montreal, no duh , seriously NO effing DUH Carolina will match, a joke of a story.

     

    Thanks a lot for 8.5 low cap hit, and thanks a lot Montreal for screwing all the other UFA's.

     

    Even the Carolina's owner is dumbfounded: 

     

     

    Nothing says Bergevin like an ill-advised attempt though. Most of the time we are happy when they dont actually happen.

    Problem is it will take more to offer sheet Marner than it will for Aho. Aside from the bonus perspective, 8.4 million a season is an incredible deal (in today's market) for someone like Aho (especially considering some expect Boeser to get 8 million a season here). The only problem for Carolina is the term, but he will be very tradable within year 5 if they cannot get an extension agreed upon. So with that said, Montreal planned it so the offer sheet would only cost a 1st, 2nd and 3rd if not matched which I would give any day of the week for Aho. Marner's offer sheet will likely hit the 4 1st rounders mark which teams would be more weary about giving up.

    Thats why you dont see more offer sheets. 

     

    Toronto is in a situation where sure they would have 4 first round picks they could then trade for other help but still not be able to add significantly as even if they let Marner walk they are still in a tight cap spot. 

     

    My ideal situation is to see the leafs implode under the weight of their idiotic forward signings and be forced to rebuild again haha. I might be slightly biased as a result. 

     

    I hope Barrie signs elsewhere and Kerfoot gets a big arbitration award so they have to walk away or cut more salary.

    Someone should offer sheet Marner. Make Toronto match or lose a top player while they are in their window for future picks. And tgen if they match dubas will have to do a lot of dancing to keep Barrie next summer. Toronto isbasically trying to go all in this year. Someone needs to ruin that.

    Still don't love overpaying Myers and not looking forward to watching him struggle against the speed of the Pacific Division, but at least the contract wasn't as much as projected. However going back to the Tanner Pearson move we have continued to add desperately needed size with skill through the off-season, and that must be commended. 

     

    I would have been fine if all we did was sign a couple depth D and stay the course this off-season, but if the plan now is to go for it then there is certainly still work to do. The biggest need now is a top 6 scoring winger. We still have injury prone players in crucial spots that can't be relied on and players that hinder more than they help to get rid of like Goldy and LE. We also still don't have a big push from the prospects and guys that still need to take the next step like JV and OJ. Maybe that will change this year, but I have a hard time seeing it.

     

    Overall the team is better than last year already, nobody can dispute that but there was a significant cost and there's still a lot of work to be done on both the big club and in Utica. I've been reading all of the forums the last few days and nobody has even mentioned what would happened if any of our young stars have a set back. That can happen, they happen all the time to good players, so adding more scoring depth is a must if the plan has changed to going for playoffs once again.

    You know Myers is a good skater and has pretty good lateral movement, right?

    you had me at habs fan. 

     

    when I started with a keeper league here on CDC like 9 years ago, maybe 8? time flies...I was a Vancouver Canucks fan and everyone else was the enemy..

     

    ...now I am hard pressed to think of a club in the NHL I don't like. Maybe I am slightly averse to the the Ducks, but only on account of the Disney Fiasco of them joining the league, lol. 

     

    Canucks, Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Montreal....all teams I like to follow, and that is just the best Canadian ones...

    I am similar. Although i strongly dislike the leafs and oilers. Hate that every $&!# move the leafs make is heralded as the greatest ever. And that the oilers are where all players go to die. Tippett coaching McDavid/Draisaitl? WTF holland is off his meds.

    Question:

     

    I realize that Carolina can't deal Aho for a year - but can they deal him in the interim - the next week - before matching that offersheet?

     

    It would be interesting whether there would be a window there to offer Carolina more realistic market value, acquire Aho, and then match the offersheet?

     

    Probably not a possiblity because the player has signed an offersheet with a particular franchise of their choosing, but I don't know whether this freezes Carolina's options even in the week in the interim.

    Good question but i dont believe they can.
