Sullivan will do everything in his power to kill Domis spirit like he has the rest of the team. Maybe Tie could give Sully a few swirlies, rough him up a bit.

Letang is 5th in power play goals and 11th in power play points among Dmen the last 3 seasons combined.
He is 8th in total goals by Dmen over the last 3 seasons tied with Hedman and Burns.

OK great, How about all the other things that #1 defenseman generally are required to do

So Vellucci was also WBS GM as well as coach. Is Botts coming back too?

Carey Price on the move?

Habs gave up a 3rd for Jake Allen, so it wasn't a dump by the Blues........

Why else would Montreal do this? 4.35 Million cap hit next year

- TheGame316


They need to keep Price fresh and have a solid backup. Bodes well for Murrays value, that is for sure but then again MTL has about 100 picks in this draft.

That should free up enough to get Petro resigned.

Well we can only hope Reirden, who will be in charge of the defense group, wont be a (frank)ing yes man to Sully when it comes to JJ. Maybe just maybe he'll recognize the dumpster fire JJ is and not be little b!tch about it. You can tell Jacques Martin is/was a yes man.

I’d guess because he came up through the ranks with Murray/jarry iirc. As long as we have one of them we will have him. Just which goalie we will see next.

Letang isn't getting moved. I also think that we're stuck with bjugstad and Hornquist (I mean that because of their contracts not who they are as players). So, my guess is we can't afford McCann and he's gone with Murray. Re up Simon cheap and see if any of the young guys can supplant him on the 3rd line.

Lafferty is taking ZAR's spot for now.

No I think he meant that there is now an opening at Wilkes for a General Manager which was a large portion of botterill's job here.

ZAR > Laff.

ZAR is the wheel that kept that line going as a shutdown line.

Sorry accidentally flagged this haha, anyways you were saying that before. Has Petry ever played top pair? I think he's good but can he handle the top pair. If so, a Letang for Domi and Petry would be a good idea.
- 668710


As someone else said, he plays ~24 minutes a night. I’m sure he sees similar competition to a top pair D.

He's a UFA so the expansion wouldn't matter, I get the "fresh" aspect, but almost 15 mill is a lot to sink into the net.

A huge amount for sure but when your #1 & #2 centers are on rookie contracts, you can do these things.

Price's salary alone is a lot to sink into the net...
