GDT: 2026 Free Agency Frenzy: Wed. July 1st | 12 PM

Makes sense. They know 100% he's an offer sheet target and they're probably not going to be able to match. They don't want just draft picks for him. They need players.

Dallas really f***ed that team over with the Rantanen deal.

 

[MarkJ]

Puckpedia has Montreal with $14.23M in cap space. Cap Wages has Montreal with $15.17M.

I have it at 100 bizillion. GO HUGO!!!

 

[Andy]

Get smaller too.

Isn’t Bourque fairly gritty?

[dinodebino]

Everybody is coming out East. Come for the party, have a few laughs…

The difference puckpedia has Fowler counting against the cap

 

[SpeedyPotato]

Get smaller too.

What does it matter to be bigger when you’re scared of your own shadow though.. I’ll take Bourque over Kapanen any day, but not on a 7m per year extension that’s for sure.

 

[dinodebino]

He needs to be knee capped.

Seguin getting hurt is what screwed everything up. He was having a good season. He probably would have taken a trade to somewhere like Detroit.

 

[dinodebino]

Cue the yes, yes meme from Jack N.

 

[Rapala]

I wonder where Cap HuGo have us?

 

[SpeedyPotato]

Cue the yes, yes meme from Jack N.

I hope they sign him for 6 years

 

[JoelWarlord]

Annoying that Hischier decided to stay with Glass Jack and Thanasis Hughes. Enjoy wasting the rest of your prime with Dougie Hamilton as your #1 lol

 

[HomaridII]

Correction.

Everybody is coming to the Atlantic.

 

[MarkJ]

no cap in Laval!

 

[Gravity]

I want nothing more than for Toronto to blow their cap space and still suck.

 

[Montreal DC]

Puckpedia has Montreal with $14.23M in cap space. Cap Wages has Montreal with $15.17M.

Seguin has a full NMC. I doubt he would want to go anywhere. The crazy thing with Dallas is they have $42m in cap space next year.

They just don't have cap space this year. They could sign both Robertson & Bourque without issues next year.

Nill didn't do enough to clear cap space over the year for this eventuality. And, they seriously over paid Harley. He's the guy they need to move to sign both.

 

[Bolduc of Hazzard]

I could honestly see Mavrik Bourque as a target. Loves going to the net. Almost all of his goals come due to him getting near the net. Dallas tried him at centre two seasons ago and it didn't work but I could see Montreal trying it. If not you put him with Bolduc on the third line and really build a strong third that feels more like a second.

I think he’d be a great target

Guess Carey Price contract ended today right? Talk about an eternity. He was signed around the same time as Karl Alzner.

 

[Milhouse40]

Kirby Dach = $4M
Bolduc - $875K
Xhekaj = $1.3M

The Habs has $6,175M in QO for their RFA

With that in mind, the Habs still has $9M to play in the UFA or for trade.
That's not a whole lot but there's still Monty's and his 3.1M (minus Fowler) that can give us another $2.1M at best.

The other contract I think we can drop is Josh Anderson at 5.5M......if it's for a big fish.

I'm talking myself into it. I didn't watch a lot of Dallas but I'm watching the way he scores goals.

He’s also progressed offensively every year since being drafted while being if a very deep team without much responsibility
