I know Conroy said he wasn't selling but he has lied before and if that team starts tanking it would suprise me if they didn't sell.
Notable names I would be looking at are Gourde and Walman. I think they could be the finishing touches on this team.
Another player I wonder about would be Laine. If he gets off to a slow start after the injury would the Canadiens be up to moving him with retention considering how low the acquisition cost was for them.
I only like Gourde of that list but is too expensive, can fix it moving Paul. Laine should be interesting but too risky with his injury.
The rest of the players are not necessary for me.
I'm a minority without a doubt, I know, but I go for more tough players who can skate a limited time in the low roles of defense and offense and cheaps. Never will happen but I dream to see Bokondji Imama with Kyle Marino in the 4th line. And Montana Onyebuchi patroling the D. Pure entertainment scoring goals and hitting everybody, the way to play this sport!
