We are 3 or 4 years since PK signed his contract and the same thing was said. I am sure EK will break the bank but thats in another 2 seasons.
I doubt Bob or Holtby sign for 10+. Wouldn't shock me to see them come in at 8.5.
The most ludicrous part of the contract is the NMC. Really? $10.5m per year for a goaltender wasn’t enough you had to throw that in too? That should have brought it down to $9-9.5m per.
Price was the one writing the contract....not MB....he could get anything he wanted....MB had zero leverage and Price knew it
At least with Subban (9M) you still have some defensemen that are relatively close to his caphit, like Burns (8M), Weber (7.857M), Suter (7.538M), Hedman (7.875M), Byfuglien (7.6M), but with Price there's a massive gap between him and the next goalie.
You have Price at 10.5, then Lundqvist at 8.5 followed by Bobrovsky at 7.425.

I just used google translate to translate the text in the link and it was an interesting translation.

I’m pretty sure this site is bs but price to St-Louis for Jake Allen, statsny and other pieces.
I mean, we have already traded Subban, I believe there is no untouchables anymore. I think it'd be a mistake to trade him though, even with his contract. He's elite.
But when there is smoke...

Maybe it is PRICE who is demanding a trade?
Maybe he is pulling a Roy, and said he isn't playing till he is traded
There's no smoke. It's just Flynn talking out of his ass.
I find this forum is lacking a sort of melting pot of trade rumors and innuendos, so that posters can fins their fix there, instead of throwing some rumors on different threads.30,
BTW, Armstrong is in town because all GMs will be here this weekend: 100th anniversary bash at the Windsor Station.
No way do I see Price being traded but he has a limited NTC until his new contract kicks in this summer. There are 15 teams he can Not be traded to. Of course all he has to do is agree to waive that if he wanted out and the team that wanted him was on his 15 team no trade list.
Carey Price's M-NTC in 2017-18 was replaced with a Full NMC in the final year of the contract. Negotiated as part of the 8 year extension.
The media in Montreal, has to be the worst, of the worst.............rumours, crap, and so on........darkest day in Habs history, remember that one.................what a sad sack of so called tv and media personalities.......Why do every single media person in this city tries so hard to be important?
Imagine if Toews played in Montreal for his inflated 10.5M per...hasn't done squat since he signed his big money deal...............So much hate for Price. Even if it's cuz of a big contract, I just don't get it.
Seriously hope none of this is true.
