as others said, Toews has a full NMC - so this is likely a bunch of hot air coming out his ass...
but, if Toews would be open to waiving for Montreal, not sure why to be honest, it would make sense for it to be built around Toews and Weber...the Hawks would not even dare look at Price as an option regardless of Crow's condition, that contract is beyond brutal...Weber makes more sense as we would have to take some cash back and he would be of use here, but damn is his contract long too...this could be the battle of bad contracts!! Getting Weber would save us $3mil and then we could sign Tavares to replace Toews...Hey, just trying to get inside the brilliant mind of Eklund here!
so trading Toews turns into Weber and Tavares......woot woot!!!
