Rumor: Canadiens made a trade at the Draft that hasn't been announced yet

[BLNY]

why would they wait? money isnt an issue

Would you pay the signing bonus if you didn't have to?

 

[Jee]

anderson is not going anywhere

Mind you, I don't want him gone, but his name's been dropped a lot lately

 

[Colezuki]

Signing bonus related, who on the habs has a signing bonus being paid out soon? Petry?

Yep

 

[Tuggy]

Gotta be Petry gone tomorrow after the bonus.

 

[Random schmoe]

Price with retention to the Caps. (Doubtful ... But it might explain why they feel comfortable getting rid of both of their goalies with no guarantees of Kuempers/other.)

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Signing bonus related, who on the habs has a signing bonus being paid out soon? Petry?

Among the players rumored to be on the market, only Petry

 

[Colezuki]

i guess but it wouldnt be good business to sell lower than you are offered elsewhere, either.

Hughes has been pretty steady in setting a price on players and then not backing off the price both good and bad (Toffoli and chariot) so I could see him wanting to act in good faith on that as well to maintain his reputation

 

[Price is Wright]

I figure Ethan Bear coming back?

 

[Nucks for the Cup]

Only players with signing bonus are Suzuki(never happening) Price(highly unlikely) then Petry 3 mil and Edmundson at 2 mil.

Petry, Edmundson, Price........ and Suzuki

typically acquisition cost is lower when the acquiring team pays for it versus waiting for the owning team to do so.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Oh god it's gonna be Necas for Petry or some stupid shit inint it

 

[CupInSIX]

Probably a deal around Petry for Bear and assets and Kotkaniemi

This I agree with

And Lehkonen

Yeah on bs rumors , i want to see Slaf-Dach-Anderson on the same line hehe

 

[CupInSIX]

Will the Habs reunite the Suzukis after tearing the Pitlick family apart?

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Petry for Zaitsev?

 

[Tetragrammaton]

Pretty sure the owner would be happy to wait a week to save 3 million dollars.

Even a month or more. 3 million isn’t couch change.

 

[JKG33]

Petry to Carolina or Dallas is my guess.

However I also wouldn't be shocked if it's Price assuming he's healthy. New management probably wants to move on

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

why wait so long

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

I figure Ethan Bear coming back?

Why? I see no reason for the habs to be interested in Bear

 

[Makaveli]

Aren't signing bonuses paid out on July 1st still?

 

[MadeUpName]

Petry for Ethan Bear + PHI 3rd 2023

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

why cant this be a team that wanted a winger but wanted to see if their guy would re-sign first? Since it is unlikely to happen they have a trade agreed upon in principle?
