If the Habs trade Weber, who's Gary going to hand the cup to?
Your analogy would make sense if Stutzle is 29 years old and Armia is 35.
This is so ironic that i'm tasting blood in my mouth.value of habs players is so skew on this site, im done.
Why would the habs downgrade just to save cap space?
If they trade Weber it's not for cap space but getting younger assets. (Potential new building block)
I think Weber is either traded for younger assets (prospect/picks) or he stays until he retire.
A shit ton, cause his salary for the last 3 years is 1M$, AND you hold NSH by the nuts with the cap recapture penalty.There's no question Weber would have a decent amount of value if not for his contract, but he's 35 with a 7.857M cap hit until the end of the 2025/26 season. How much value would he have around the league because of it?
I'd suggest people would consider it more if it were clear Montreal was not going anywhere in the immediate future. If Price turns it around, this team can be a playoff team and could make it a couple of rounds if everything works out.Zaitsev is 29. Not exactly a young player but he's significantly younger than Weber.
What team is going to give any kind of significant package of young assets for a 35YR old Weber with a 7.85M cap hit for the next 5YRs?
Feel like people aren't factoring in his cap hit when valuing him.
His cap hit is not a problem for many reasons.Zaitsev is 29. Not exactly a young player but he's significantly younger than Weber.

You should check with Nashville and see how much value he has to themThere's no question Weber would have a decent amount of value if not for his contract, but he's 35 with a 7.857M cap hit until the end of the 2025/26 season. How much value would he have around the league because of it?
Lol ahhh the pipe dream some Habs fans have where they think they have the Preds over some barrel with Weber.A shit ton, cause his salary for the last 3 years is 1M$, AND you hold NSH by the nuts with the cap recapture penalty.
Any team like ARI trying to get to the floor = value
AND
Lots of value for a pot trade back to NSH
*Toronto has entered the chat*its the Phaneuf deal all over again.
