Well there's always that. When it was time and he had value.

He still has a ton of value, his contract doesn't...

oh no it's not. I'd bet my house MB is waiting to see if Habs win tonight, and Leafs lose, and FLA lose.... they still have a chance....

He traded Scandella. They know.

I believe his contract is probably still valued around 65-70M.

I'd like to have your confidence

I agree. But unfortunately they cancel each other out.

funny (frank)er...


Has anyone heard projections on the next contracts for Petry and Tatar? I know Kovalchuk is supposed to be $3.5M base and $5m with bonuses but haven't heard anything on the more important 2. I'd keep them if the term is under 5 years...

Lets be honest, if the Habs retained $3M or took back a bad contract (Vlasic), there'd be takers.

I'm not suggesting Vlasic is the guy but if you can find someone who used to be good and suddenly sucks with a bad contract, it could be worth a shot (like Tatar), especially with the UFA goalie pool this year

They'd both be signed for probably 6 years at 7 million.

unless he asks for a trade, he's gonna die in a Habs uniform

I think he might retire first.

yep, maybe 1 year less for Petry since he is older, but that's problably close.
same for Danault and Gallagher btw.

Oh they could move him for sure (but he has to agree to it)......but the poop we'd have to take back or retain might just be as poopty as his contract in the end??

Unless he demands a trade and we get totally (frank)ed over. That's a different story.

You get 7, you get 7, you get 7!! EVERYBODY GETS 7!!!!

Yes, Petry might be able to get him for 5 years. But agents are mother(frank)ers.

yeah, I don't see the point of retaining 2-3M, then pay 6M for another goalie.... might as well keep the (frank)er and chill out

Yes exactly. It's just a different scenario adding up to the same amount of money for a worse player/situation.

If only there was a way to win in a deal for him.........

Domi.....he's pulling a Drouin to close out the season here.

Domi cheating again, but this time it paid. lucky (frank)er
