Hopefully this will discourage anyone from trying it with Petey or Hughes.

 

Regardless, I don't think Montreal have 6M in cap space whereas Carolina can squeeze him in. Smart move, he'll probably end up a Hurricane. 

 

I know 6.1M seems like a lot but this is a 3rd overall pick who might breakout soon, and could do it with a decent Hurricanes team...

 

The Canes will probably end up with a late 1st rounder so a 20th+ overall and 3rd isn't too bad for a young 2nd line, 40 point center with potential.

This is Bergevin...he's whacked.   Just never know.   Wilson is a bigger threat - if he does it and EP goes there it says two things :  One EP just cares about money.   Two:  The picks we get back will prevent us from offer sheeting them back for awhile lol.   They will be great picks.

Pretty sure all they have to do is take him to arbitration if he hasn't earned it and then try again after that's done - same thing we could do with BB ... 

The arbitration award in a team elected arbitration can't be less than 85% of his last salary including bonuses - so he would still be set to receive 5.185M through arbitration.

So I was listening to this Habs YouTube channel and if they represent the general fanbase it seems they prefer the Habs don't match and flip the acquired picks to for a center.

 

Plus it seems like they don't want Kotkaniemi back. And they do have a point I can imagine Habs fans in attendance being quite hostile to him since he accepted the offer sheet
