Former "Domi a favor"
Michael Ryder will be UFA this summer. I'm really loving what he brings to this team. Of course, he'll never be defensively oriented and I'll never be a hitting machine, but I think every team needs that kind of offensively gifted player who's main strenght is to put the goal in the net.
Since his first stint with the Habs, I think he really matured. He also improved his passing and I don't think he's a defensive liability anymore. I also love how clutch he is and how he often scores important goals. If we want to keep 3 offensive lines next season, then I think we won't find much better on the market. At 33 years old, I also think he could be good for another 3 years at least, so I would make him this offer :
3 years, $12 millions
1st year : $4,5 millions
2nd year : $4 millions
3rd year : $3,5 millions
Cap hit : $4 millions
Not sure he would accept, since he might get more on the free market, but I think it's worth a try.
What would you do?
