Yes but if you really want the player you still don't take that risk...

It does.

But does it happen often? I can't say.

Edit: Like Bash said, why take the risk? If he comes back as a Habs, it's because his demands will be significantly lower than what he was asking for back then.

I would prefer he gives 4M$ per season to Brouwer or better, go for an AAV of 6M$ to Ladd. With Shaw, the Habs don't need Weise anymore unless he takes a ridiculous discount.

Habs have 8M left in cap space with Danault and Carr left to sign. MB will want to keep 1-2M in cap space available to bring up players from the minors if necessary.

I think they are working with around 4M in cap space to sign players unless they make a trade to clear cap space....for Stamkos.

he wanted 3M before....he will have to settle around 2.5M IMO

I think with the Shaw in the top 6 it's the perfect situation to get a guy like Weise on the 3rd line.

or gets promoted to the top line once Galchenyuk gets moved to a checking line to learn how to play without the puck.

I'll hold on to my opinion he won't get more than 1.5.

Guess we'll see!

No, to push Shaw for 1st line minutes....

Don't worry Pete, Shaw has a front loaded contract, so we will be able to trade him down the line.
