you say that like it was a turrible thing. I guess I'm among the very few on the "keep Allen" bandwagon, oh well.

I like Allen, but not enough to lose Primeau for nothing

that's why many say trade Allen now, get something for him, and go with Monty and Primeau. asset management.
but with that 2y extension to Allen... not easy.

again, I feel that's a rather digestible cap hit and contract length, I don't see this as a huge deal breaker if Hughes wants to trade him.

3.8M for a backup? yeah, not that great a deal imo. for MTL it's okay because we have nobody else, but for a contender looking to trade for a goalie.... that's a lot of $$$

Limits the trade partner who have cap constraints, teams tend to prefer expiring contracts at the TDL

that's the thing though, Allen isn't a #1 goalie, if contending teams are looking to acquire him it would most likely be because of an injury situation... and I might be a bit biased but I find he's among the most solid backups out there.

he's been very engaged lately and playing really well. I know his contract and his lack of consistency aren't ideal but I like the guy, especially when he plays like this.

To win a cup or even a playoffs series this Leafs’ team will need to learn to destroy severely depleted teams like the Habs right now, can’t be good for their confidence not to manhandle this AHL caliber version of the Habs

and inversely, the habs can be proud of their recent performances, considering the current roster they're icing...
