Hall

It's like amazingly all of those blockbusters turned out to be lose-loses

lollMountain as in immovable lump of mass that’s fairly easy to go around?
Have you seen Montreal's back up history between Halak and Allen?this is the correct answer.
Bergevin transferred his stupid stubbornness for quality backup goalies - to a PMD LD that could insulate him.
he shouldn't be playing more than 18 mins a night on a 2nd pair shutdown role
that's what I wrote. he went from being an idiot about backups (until he got Allen) to being an idiot with dmenHave you seen Montreal's back up history between Halak and Allen?

If you put literally any average goalie in place of these guys Montreal improves their record enough to make the playoffs in multiple seasons. Getting Allen was a great move, and he's bait for Seattle.
Currently he might be. Weber is still pretty good but obviously not what he was.So is Larsson currently the best player out of those crazy trades?

Wouldn't consider it a loss for the Preds. We got a cup run and a President's Trophy out of it and the back side of it we are basically still waiting to see how all that pans out.It's like amazingly all of those blockbusters turned out to be lose-loses
35 year old veteran with over 1,000 games played, averaging 20+ min a night against opposing teams top-6.What happened? He seemed to be a beast as recently as last season and playoffs.
Bergeron still dominantsame can be said for everyone from that 2003 draft class. Except for Fleury I guess. That shit was a long time ago.

Sounds like an even up trade for Subban.Forget top pairing. If he was a no-name AHLer playing the same way he's playing now, I don't think he'd even get a regular roster spot on most teams.
At 35, Weber is really struggling right now. He's having a really hard time playing the minutes he is playing and is not an NHL top pairing D anymore.
Montreal can get off that contract since Weber does not hold a NMC or have any trade protection. I doubt Weber would report to the A if Montreal assigned him to Laval. He would have made over $120 million in salary at the end of the 21-22 season. If he does not report, then Montreal can move to have his contract terminated, ala Kovalchuck with NJ.Well, at least his contract is almost up.
What's that?
Really?
Oooh. Ugh. Okay.

They're not going to terminate his contract. That is such an infrequent act to occur, let alone with a team captain nearing retirement. Threaten to reassign him so he elects to go on LTIRetirement and collects the rest of his contract while working for the front office, TSN, whatever is a far more likely scenario.Montreal can get off that contract since Weber does not hold a NMC or have any trade protection.

Works for Weber since if he wants to continue to play, he can make the same salary but his cap charge to another team will be equal to his salary.
It's Nashville that would take the hit, ala the Canucks with Luongo right now, if Weber doesn't fulfill his contract either by playing it out or ending up on LTIR.
Today I learned Shea Weber is the same age as Alex Ovechkin. One month apart. I feel like Weber should be older.
If he retires, yes, $24M capped at his AAV per year (about $7.8M). If he LTIRetires, Nashville gets hit with nothing.Are there still recapture rules for Nashville if he doesn’t serve out his contract?
