Eric Engels: It's a Salary Cap World, Habs Must Find Their Place in it

If this team wants to improve, Gomez has to go, either a buyout as part of the next CBA or he goes to Hamilton. Habs need the full 7.5M of cap space to imrpove this team.

Does anyone still strongly believe Pierre Gauthier will keep his job?

God, I hope not.

Some have proposed Bergevin. Maybe Damphousse? Who knows...

of course, it should be mentioned that Gomez's actuals drop down over next two seasons, so parking him in hamilton won't cost 7.4/year...

but him and kaberle-- a lot of dough for guys that won't even be on the team.

also, it's not expected GM's will get a buyout window with new CBA

2012/03/04: The Coyotes are giving Antoine Vermette a chance to center a line featuring Shane Doan and Lauri Korpikoski. Although he has not registered a point in five games as a Coyote, Vermette was on the ice for a goal against the Blue Jackets Saturday night. This is a good gig for him if he can keep it. Watch Vermette as he has been known to go on scoring runs.

The most important point in all of this, is that Darche is expected to be back.

too bad he got hurt just when he was being showcased.

I'm afraid to post in this thread now. I have a feeling my time is short.

I think they keep Kaberle, Gomez however, will be a Bulldog.

Maybe they trade him, and share the salary with that team. Can the cap hit be shared as well?

Let him who have understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number.

This is a nasty thing to say.

All depends on his training camp. If he plays like I know he can then there's no way they send him down to the minors.
