Rumors: 2024-25 Season

IMO Armia is more likely to be the “expect the unexpected” move at deadline - he’s what the teams 3rd leading goal scorer w 10?
 
If MB becomes the GM, he'll draft Lindstrom, for two reasons: 1) he's always wanted a big no. 1 center, and 2) to screw the Habs.
 
Basu believes Habs will try to lock up Slaf to a Cole Caufield type extension this summer.

These kids are getting expensive fast

Need to avoid the Core 4 situation. 3X8 is certainly better than 4X11, but it starts to become a limiting factor. If they want Guhle long term, it will have to be in the 5M range, max.

That said the Dach and Newhook deals are are good, for now. And that’s why Perfertti in an intriguing option. (And needless to say, good drafting is critical to get players who can contribute during their ELC.)

Sounds about right and about time star type players are getting more money on their second contracts

Hockey is the only sport players took less to help teams out

Lock him up to that deal and the big 3 is locked into the next decade with a fair price and cost certainty

Teams rarely get burned doing this long term
