too much coming back Montreals way.

No need for Harris, so drop him and a pick and you have a deal!

I tend to agree with EBS on this one.

Whatever move EDM makes they are dealing from a position of weakness. They’ll be forced into a painful deal to sacrifice some futures (prospects or picks) to undo some past errors. They have no choice to buy to address the current state or the team. Whatever they do it will be fascinating.

Not enough to dump Campbell I’d imagine they’d need to attach Bouchard or 2 1sts to dump that contract.

Armia instead of Harris? Plus the Oils recent 1st round French Canadian pick and a 2nd is a decent package! It’ll help Montreal get Celebrini!

I’m sure you’re jumping to do that ebsoultly. I think it’d take Celebrini to get out of that contract.

It’s brutal for sure but the buyout isn’t that bad. If Montreal can get a good package to take him, have him suck for a year, draft high then buy him out, it might not be the worst decision. Add a bad contract on there end to ease the pain. Oil might just have to buy him out there self, which I’d be okay with.

If you buy him out you’ll be paying dead cap for what? 6-7 years? No teams gonna do that without massive compensation.

6 years at a cap hit around 1.5 to 2M I believe. That’s why I think it would be a good idea to retain 50% on Campbell if there was an agreement to buy him out. Less cost to dump him and not a bad buyout cost. Nashville bought Duchene out with I think 3 years remaining and Minnesota did it with Parise and Suter recently.
