MB is a genius for picking up Mike Weaver!!!!!!

Season-ending injury after a hit by Lucic.
- _nay_

This one deserves a big juicy TA YEULE.

I guess that's the going rate for comparables?

Semin, Marleau, Kopitar. All around the same point output.

Should the Habs try to sign him for that much?
- l3ig_l2ecl

Why not? They need a player like him,

Now let's hope his wife likes Montreal.

Seriously? You wouldn't give 7M/yr to Vanek?

Habs will most likely offer even more...closer to 8M just to try to keep him

Hard to imagine a woman who has lived near a decade in a combined Minnesota and Buffalo would take offense to Montreal...

$38.235M over 6 years

Go Habs Go!!

Why would he sign for 2 years?

Hard to imagine a woman...
- AdamFrench

Maybe for you...

Gionta's gone soon, why not?
- AdamFrench

Gionta is gone 5 millions freed
Bouillon, Murray, Weaver will not be resigned 4millions.
But Beaulieu and Tinordi have cap hits around 1,9 millions.

You have to resign Subban 2,875 to 7,5 - 8 mil

Vanek will ask for 7-8 too

2nd pick to Min for vanek at the draft.

I had heard the Bruins were in on him, and considering you guys got him for a fart in the wind, I can't believe the Bruins couldn't have made a better offer.
- Rayven

I heard nobody offered up more than a 4th.

Habs overpaid.

Why would he sign for 2 years?
- _nay_

So he can get another big contract before he retires...

he's 30...signs for 2 years and lots of coin, he can still sign for 4-5 or 6 year at 32...

if he signs for 6 years now, his next contract is at 36...where he'll get 1 or 2 year offers at lower $$$

It all depends what he wants now...maximum $$$ or maximum security and stability...it's might be a gamble that he'd be willing to take...

20pts in 35 games

OMG!!! A 46 point slow winger....

And Eller will get a bump too. Good think he's having a crappy season.

Bourque or Brière will have to waived. Maybe both?

Are you gonna stfu once and for all?

- WaterBoy

Would be nice, but I doubt they'd trade assets for a player who they will sign with them.

Vanek's rights for Moulson's could be nice, though.
