Confirmed with Link: Anderson to Habs for Domi and a 3rd II

I think the 3rd is because Max will cost more

Why would Anderson agent (same as Domi) take less money, they were traded one on one and MTL had to add, you don’t add because the other player make more they are both unsigned, we added because Domi value was lower (and MB is dumb) also he could just sign 1 year and hit UFA... He hold all the card why take a discount.

It's been explained several times online: demand for Anderson was from multiple teams. Not the case for Domi. Basic supply and demand. MB had to add something to finalize the deal.

Discount to what? He made 1.85mm last year and had a brutal season. He will get a significant raise over his last deal, but will make less then what he would have made if his 2018-19 production carried into 2019-2020.

And he doesn’t hold all the cards, he is under team control.

Max is going to get more money, no doubt.

That is exactly the point I made the pick is to offset player value not offset possible value of next contract...

Max will get more money for sure but Anderson will only under control for 1 years he doesn’t have to sign a deal that isn’t great for him... he knows more team wants him than Domi if Montreal doesn’t want to pay someone else will, what card do MTL have? He will go to arbitration if he lose he will just hit UFA the next season... MTL have all the pressure to get it done.

It's funny to see how many people are obsessed with the 3rd round pick being added.
Montreal has a plethora of picks this draft. I see zero issue giving up a 3rd round pick.
Considering an average of two 3rd round picks a year turn out to be decent NHLers since 2020, I think its safe to say 2/31 are pretty poor odds that the 3rd round pick will even turn into anything.

Get over it, it's a decent trade and will work out for Montreal fine in the end.

That confirms it then. Major L for us in this trade.

??? Why, Domi is getting paid his approximate value.

Exactly. Columbus getting Domi on a sweet contract at 5m is worth more than just Anderson.

 

[DAChampion]

We'll see how much Anderson gets.

 

[le_sean]

So he just wants to take himself to UFA. Makes sense for him but that’s probably a big reason the Habs didn’t want to keep him around

 

[Deebs]

Feel even better about the trade after this contract

Because the trade value of each is in part determined by their contract requirements.

Just because they were traded one for one (with the third) doesn't mean they will ask for the same money.

Time will tell if 5.5 in this cap enviro is indeed sweet. Agree that would be a good deal for a 65 point number 2 C but I have him as a 55 point winger. Really depends on if he can maintain some level of consistency but for 5.5, imo, that is fair but hardly a steal.

Exactly, 2 years and he walks. No idea how this is a good deal for CBJ, my assumption was they would get some UFA years

I would have rejected this 2 year deal idea even if it meant going to arbitration for a 1 year deal.

Don't know what Columbus was thinking.

 

[Richiebottles]

Hahah wow, Domi will walk straight to being a UFA. Can’t blame him for wanting to get paid.

If we lock Anderson up past UFA it could mean we end up with a good PWF and Columbus has yet another player to go UFA.

[DAChampion]

What do you guys expect Anderson to get paid?

 

[Hannibal]

Bad contract for CBJ

 

[David Suzuki]

What do you guys expect Anderson to get paid?

4-5 million with some term

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

4 or 5 years around 4m a year for Andy is my guess. Andy says he wants long term.
