The Brass already know what we need. How they go about it given our situation is another thing.
We are way too soft and our special teams are in the toilet. Straight Up.

I think we could spend up to 8.7 million of Price's 10.5 because you can only go 10% above the capNo. You can sign free agents on July 1st, no problem and be over the cap. . But you have to be under the cap the day before the start of the season.
If Price is to be put on LTIR, the Habs would be able to use his entire cap-hit (obviously) and then exceed the cap ceiling by 10% as well. The thing with LTIR (which is much more confusing than I care for) is you should aim to utilizer every cent of it. Obviously Hughes had no such intention last summer so there was some debate, but Weber's contract was dealt to Vegas because Vegas knew for sure they wanted to utilize every bit of his 7.8m LTIR-enabled cap space.I think we could spend up to 8.7 million of Price's 10.5 because you can only go 10% above the cap
If you remember last offseason there was the whole drama of do we put Price on ltir in the offseason or at the start of the season, and we waited until the start of the season for no real benefit
Another fact of the modern NHL we have to accept.Don't know where else to put this but a friend mentioned that if Montreal does not make the the playoffs next season,it will be the first time that they miss 4 seasons in a row. I didn't verify it but sad if true.
100% agree.Proper special teams coaching.
Biggest road block? Other teams
