Habs Season Thread: 2023-24 Season

[GrandWazoo]

got my tix for game here and the nezt night in Seattle. Only cost me my left nut. I've never gone to back to back games but Count Jr wanted to go to Seattle too. Laval is in Abbotsford on the Saturday so could be 3 games in 4 days.

Let me know whenever you need tickets for the Kraken. Same goes for all of you.

Can you include airfare and hotel?

 

[GEEMAN]

I thought Bouchard was working for the Ducks

Sure, but I'll charge you extra for the flights and the hotel.

There are teams with too many D

Would be something if Habs / NYR find a way to get a deal around Dvorak + pick / prospect for Lundqvist + Kravtsov

Yes and no.

Byron's going to start on the LTIR, so we can wait a while for him. Pezzetta's AHL bound, he's not a real NHL forward. I think there's a real chance Slafkovsky could start the year in Laval (which, btw, could be a pretty fun team to watch).

With those Byron on LTIR & Pezzetta in the AHL, that gives us 14 forwards. Injuries are bound to happen and there are some of the forwards that will be traded by the deadline, hello Drouin/Dadonov, and we'll have space.

However, we are too tight with space and in an ideal world, we're able to trade one of the NHL forwards before the start of the season.

I’d be OK moving a vet for a decent return and letting Pizza Mullet get another half season or so. He’s on borrowed time anyway.

Yup like Calgary

$270K short of Price’s full AAV

$270K short of Price’s full AAV

Thanks

So if I understand this correctly

Habs have to absorb Price`s full cap hit and then include Dach`s

Habs then can put Price on LTIR and deduct his 10.5 from any future transactions if they want

With Dach signing, Habs have to make a move by 5pm to fully absorb that AAV. Price going on off-season LTIR accomplishes that goal.

Can go over cap by 10% at any time during off-season but need to meet cap requirements by 5pm of the given day

There will be more than one forward dealt before or after camp

Looks like Jake Allen is going to get an extension.
