Definitely not a Bergevin type guy. Especially after the wreck that was Vanek int he playoffs, I think the team is even more wary of bringing back those ultra streaky passenger types.

I feel like the Habs could use 1 additional winger, preferably one with at least some scoring potential. If I could get that player for next to nothing, and he was on an expiring contract, I'd take pretty much anybody. Ryder fits most of the criteria... the only question is whether he can be had for "next to nothing". If so, then sure.

No. Just no. I'm all for thought exercises and contemplating the "what ifs", but this is a waste of time even by HF standards.

I don't agree. If anything PAP has a better contract because he has an extra year left. Even if he did only have one year remaining, there would be a strong chance of him getting resigned by Bergy.

Ryder is a floater with a questionable attitude and is streaky as hell. When he isn't scoring(which is often now) he is completely useless and explains why he has been a healthy scratch lately.

How does Parenteau having a 4 mil cap hit next year make it a better deal?

If Parenteau was a UFA next summer(based on his play so far) he'd be lucky to get 2 or 3 years at 9 mil(3 mil AAV). I don't dislike the guy, but he runs hot and cold from game to game. Ideally he'd be getting 3rd line minutes.

Ryder is a similar player but with 4.5 mil less of cap room.

Hahaha Ryder? Really?

Outside of having an excellent shot, he embodies what we don't want.

No. Just no.

Would rather drink my own piss. Or trade Desharnais for him, 1v1.

I've been hoping that for a few years now, or at least until he had his marbles strewn all over the floor by Bortuzzo...

I'm just posting here so I can see the crazy people who think this is a) a good idea and b) feasible.

You want to trade PAP for a bum just because he is 1 million overpaid? Then next season you just blindly expect Andrighetto will be able replace his minutes.
