Muller seems to be falling into a Mo trap of never playing the fourth line, which doesn't make sense to me considering the moves made to theoretically bolster the size/productivity of that line.
But yeah, the defence.. Defence isn't really even the right choice of word here since there has been no evidence of any defending in these two games.
What about PK Subban?
He ain't signed with MTL yet, could we entice him here?
What if we offer something that puts Montreal right at the cap? Offer something with around a $5.5M cap hit and Montreal will be just barely below the cap for this year. They either match and we lose nothing but Bergevin's respect, or they don't match, we get PK, and we only lose a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
What does Montreal care if they are right at the cap? Gomez's salary comes off the cap next tear and they are fine.
I forgot about the alleviated cap due to Gomez for next year, that's why. Carry on.
