Think he asked, scratch that begged to be shamed if he voted for GusI'm all against public shaming, but I'm doing an exception @Mandala who would re-sign Gustafsson
i wouldn’t mind us keeping him for cheaper than what we thought he would get.
does well in the season
Wanted Perry forsure before but I guess after the Tampa series it’s evident speed kills and he doesn’t have it.
still hope we keep him but defs On the same contract

You’re right. He’s just not that good
If he wants 1.5 million that’s great. But hearing this 3million dollar price tag for Armia is insane
Still too much for Armia. Flat cap. Players like him are gonna have a hard time getting paid.

Oh I agree , Armia at 2.15m would be enough but id be willing to give him 2.5m if we get rid of Byron awful contract

Molson has literally come out and said "Montreal fans wouldn't accept a rebuild." And that was well before this run to the Stanley Cup finals. There is zero chance a rebuild is even remotely considered. If Bergevin even suggested it, he'd be fired on the spot and Molson would only hire someone willing to retool.
There really isn't any point discussing it. We have a better chance of trading for Kucherov than starting a rebuild for next season.
Voted for Danault/Armia/Perry.
Danault if he isn't asking too much money, let's say he wants term, like 7 or 8 years, but 4/4.5M$, I'd have no problem with this, I guess he'd just accept a salary to fit the role he has right now. Wouldn't mind the term, cause a defensive center like him rarely gets worse til late in his 30s. If he asks for more, then we have a problem...
Armia, depends on the money again, he's just so damn inconsistent, when he's on, he can change a game, but when he's off, at least he's good defensively. He may want to test the market to play more elsewhere though. 3/3.5M$ for 2-3 seasons could be nice, think he'll want more...
Perry, in his case it depends if he still want to play, or if he wants to try a couple teams before he retire. Still can play, depends in what capacity. Some teams will offer him more.
Don't care about the others, Tatar should have been traded at last season's trade deadline when he had his best regular season ever instead of wasting his value by showcasing nothing in the following 'playoffs'...

Byron will most likely be bought out. Habs save 2.9m this season. Only 500k in dead cap
I just don’t find Armia that useful. Perry was more valuable to the habs at 1 million
A guy like spezza had a terrific season and tool 750k
Now I get he’s a lot younger but he’s not a better player. Let him walk
Way too much for Armia. Then leks will get 3 million as an RFA as well.

Perry isn't an 82 game player anymore.
I'm not sure if he's a 60 game player, so you gotta remember that.

I agree , Armia is a bit like Danault. He played a role too high for him for too many times. We used him as a top 6 winger for 2 years , he has powerplay time and PK time. He had a season with close to 17min average. Yet he can still barely get 30 points. He barely use his size , goes invisible really often
1 can say he just had 8 points in 21 games in the playoffs but he had 1 goal 0 assist in the last 11 games. He's a 4th liner like Byron who shouldnt be overpaid that can play on a thirdline sometimes.

That's actually great news , never understood that extension to begin with. Paul Byron is a guy that you should pay 900 k a year to be an extra forward.
Yeah wasn't sure about the $ either. He won't ask for less than he has now though, which is probably why he won't re-sign with us.
If so, well, he was useful but we have too many RH wingers anyway, so not that big of a deal.
He can go. It’s not a big loss. We need more talented goal scorers to compete next year

Lehkonen's QO is 2.2m. That is what he will receive. He can go to arbitration but he had 13 pts last year, doubt he gets more. Armia at 3m is fine.
