THIS! muffin_man to the rescue. It's exactly how I see it too, markov and Gio gives you 10M next year, and salary cap is likely going up a few $M too. I don't think we are in a bad situation that we won't be able to sign both at 7M, but very unlikely since St-louis will match, and there is some team that will be willing to give a lot more for Piet (see flyers) than what habs could afford

There is no doubt the Blues will match at $7M

Absolutely. Blues would like to sign him at 6-6.5, but will go to 7M if they have to. I think to make them really think about it, 7.5M+ should do the trick, but I think they will match too. Best wsy to get him is by trade, and i think that a legit top 6 + high prospect + 1st will make them consider. Thing is, they won't be willing to take a lot of salary do good contract has to be offered.

Yep. I actually said that couple of comments ago, habs have the assets to get him, but it will just hurt them more. I think they can compete with flyers for that, they can give more without hurting themself too much Now, doesnt mean blues would do, frankly it will be a bidding war and they will probably be able to squeeze a little more. I think that St-louis would be smart to just keep him. D-man like him don't come around often.

I really hope the Flyers can snag him, Edler or Yandle...

Well i think you guys has all the tools to do it. Hommer will need to work his magic, the cap is what's holding everything

If they can move either Coots or BSchenn in a package with Coburn, Read and picks they will be fine cap wise...They'll also dump Mesz to make even more room...

Interesting proposal. If I were Habs head office, I would propose Plekanec, Beaulieu, Leblanc and 1st. I think it could work. If all comes to worst, switch Beaulieu for Diaz or Leblanc for Collberg.

I think the Habs need more help up front than a massive defensive upgrade...

I think the same. Big scorer and a big shutdown D-man is what we need i think. But I think that AP will make any team better.
