I'd be shocked if an American like Kane came to the Habs who are not a contender.
Been a strategy forever
When Kane signed with Detroit last year they were battling for a playoff spot. He was coming off of hip surgery and waited to see who was going to give him the best opportunity. It is possible that he could come here but other than Seravalli I haven't heard one insider mention Montreal connected to Kane.
Edit: Just as I finished typing he signs with the Wings lol
ArkRather have marchesseault
Interesting because Gorton said "We'll see if they think the same way we do."No Seravalli, the next 24 hours won't be that wild. Just a lots of teams signing aging players to stupid contracts and players mostly following the money.
Didn't he wait until the season started to sign last year? He could do the same thing if a contender can't afford the cheap contract he will ask for. I doubt we'd retain on his cheap contract either to facilitate this hypothetical trade, we got other dog shit contracts we should prioritize moving with retention.Maybe contenders don't have room for him right now ?
Or he wants to see how every team comes together ?
Im very sceptical, but thats the scenario that probably makes the most sense.
Actually 100% down for this lmao
Gallagher and Anderson are not top 6 player and they are beyond overpaid. There is no bounceback for them.don't see much sense in signing perron, kane or simirlar top 6 wannabe player, even on a shorter deal, since we already have gallagher and anderson to fill that role. i'd give them a chance to play with dach and newhook in hope one of them become a tradeable asset again, which they wont become if they are buried on the fourth line.
That’s cause he signed mid-season. Now he’s got to take an educated guess who could make it and who he’d trust to trade him to a contender if he wanted to go. Kent Hughes has a reputation of treating vets right and trading them to places they want. See the case of Jeff Petry among othersDetroit was in a playoff spot when he signed there.
I was shocked that they got Demidov. This may be the summer of George!I'd be shocked if an American like Kane came to the Habs who are not a contender.
And there he goes.............
I was fooled at 1st as well, but that is from last yearYeah, this easily makes the most sense.

Yeah, this easily makes the most sense if he goes back. But we'll see.

Neither will get much TOI nor do they deserve more TOI.Gallagher and Anderson are not top 6 player and they are beyond overpaid. There is no bounceback for them.
if armia bounced back, anyone can.Gallagher and Anderson are not top 6 player and they are beyond overpaid. There is no bounceback for them.
As mentioned before, a buy out would be more harmful. Habs can very well keep him for a while since we don't need the cap space, but don't expect us to improve much as a team with this plug taking a roster spot while making all that money. Ditto for Gallagher.
What role, he sucks defensively, can't make a pass. Shoots like a turd. Hits once in 5 games . At 5.5m a year to do something that's just awful.Neither will get much TOI nor do they deserve more TOI.
The payday they both get, is beyond awful..............................together 12M in cap space.......the Bergevin Years live on with older players, who no longer deserve that $$$.
That said, I could see a bit of a resurgence in Anderson, if he will become a 3rd line role type player.
