Bottom 6 ain't good enough. Hope we can sign a forward today.So as it stands today:
Slaf - Suzuki - Caufield
Newhook - Dack - Roy
Armia - Dvorak - Anderson
RHP - Evans - Gallagher
Pezetta.

Can't upgrade this team with so many bad contracts. Bottom 6 is where those bad contracts end up.Bottom 6 ain't good enough. Hope we can sign a forward today.
The 2 Caufields on the 1st would get chasing in their own zone for sure.A legit older top 6 guy to keep Demidovs seat warm would be perfect. Stamkos would fit like a glove.
Caufield-Suzuki-Caufield
Roy-Dach-Stamkos
Armia-Newhook-Gallagher (great end of year)
Pezz/RHP-Dvorak/Evans- Anderson
Terrible idea....Pay the price to get McGroarty. Hughes, show some balls and trade Mailloux for him. He will be way better than Debrusk and cheaper.
Yeah, among the worst on the NHL.That bottom 6 is gross. Lol

Next season yes but not this season. Next season you get Demidov, Move Roy down and need another guy to step on this 3rd line. Key for me is to get Roy, Dach, Newhook to make a step forward this year. Debrusk allows that in my opinion.Armia is done on MTL after next season and hopefully Gallagher as well somehow.

Pezetta should be in laval, RHP can be your 13th forward.Yeah, among the worst on the NHL.
I don't mind Evans-Armia on the 4th line but that's it.
RHP should be in Laval.
I read somewhere that his GF lives in Calgary and that's where he may end up.Debrusk is the most logical fit for us, by far.
RHP is not an NHL player. Not sure why he continues to be part of any meaningful roster discussion. Slow, small players don't make 4th lines better. Pezzetta is another player who doesn't belong on an NHL roster.Pezetta should be in laval, RHP can be your 13th forward.
but you need a more serious 3rd and 4th line pronto. WIth that forward group we will remain where we where, maybe pick 8-10 instead due to progression.

If he was at least consistently physical I wouldn't be opposed, but he just exists.Mantha incoming.
UFAs are just one way of doing this, we could make a few trades, go the waiver route, etc. The bottom 6 is an easier thing to fix in general.For what its worth, Engels in his predictions post just now has us signing absolutely nobody at all.
I hope not. I can't really go through another season of that bottom 6.
We already have an Anderson at home, we don't need another.Mantha incoming.

Pretty much this. This year is still not the year, whatever they say. So filling the bottom six while there are a bunch of overpaid deadweight, they may as well just ride it out another year and then consider buying out Gallagher or Anderson. Dvorak and Armia are on their last year, so they may be tradable depending on how they perform.Unfortunately, I have to agree. Nothing of value will be worth discussing today for Habs fans. Management might attempt to fix the bottom six by bringing in some third liners, but Armia, Dvo, Gallagher and Anderson are so hard to get rid of, that it's not feasible. I would target guys like Toffoli, Monahan, Marchessault, Perron, Tarasenko, Teravainen or DeBrusk. They can then work the numbers and buy-out a Gallagher for example, bury Armia and Dvo in the minors.
