Earned his spot last year???

He got 9pts in 23 gms, hardly tore it apart.

The guy isn’t owed a spot, and had a shitty camp. Kap, Hein, and Tuch deserve a roster spot before him.
Roy has been MIA the whole camp................and was very underwhelming last year.
He needs some serious time in Laval to find his game.

LOL, that would be like having a full no-trade clause, and then having a limited no-trade clause on top of it to emphasize "don' t even ASK me for these 6 teams".

It's nonsense. Not an option. No player has a limited no-trade clause on top of a full no-trade clause, at the same time. Gallagher has a combination NMC/L-NTC because the "no movement clause" that Gallagher has does not include trades.

You, @FerrisRox and @OnTheRun really need to get informed. Remember the Jeff Petry trade to Montreal in the summer of 2023 that caught him off guard? Jeff had a no movement clause but it did not protect him from a trade to one of the 16 teams not on his no-trade list.

Your take is simply WRONG.
A no-move clause may prevent the involuntary movement of a player from trade, loan or waiver claim.

In this case, a modified NTC was added giving the Habs the option to trade him to any team, less the 6 on his list.

A full no-move on its own would include trades.

He has a NMC and a LNTC, and what @OnTheRun simply stated is essentially how it works.

Btw - Jeff Perry had only a m-ntc, never had a nmc. You should understand this before using him as an example, get informed.

You have a problem with comprehension. Read his take slowly, think for a second, you will get there, lol.

“The No-Movement Clause:

A No-Movement Clause prohibits a team from moving a player by trade, waivers, or assigning that player to the minors without the player’s consent. This keeps the player with the pro team unless the player approves one of these moves. The player has the final say. Some players will often have a limited trade list here as well. A No-Movement Clause does not restrict a team from buying out or terminating a player’s contract.”

How would it make sense to have a full no movement clause that would include trades as well as a 6 team no trade clause that runs concurrently? That makes sense to you?

I'm sure that the NTC covers only the 6 teams he has on his list, otherwise it wouldn't exist. Puckpedia and other sources all have it posted as a 6 team NTC so that's what it likely is.

He has both, Full NMC, and a six team LNTC

Puckpedia and all other sources state he has a full no movement clause. This is exactly what it states, can’t be sent down, can’t be traded, and can’t be waived. He also has a limited trade clause that covers six teams. They can ask him to waive his nmc but don’t bother if they are on his 6 team list.

Sorry man that makes no sense. You can ask a player or other party to any legal agreement to waive whatever you like, you don't need a contract to give you legal permission to ask for a waiver lol.

You could even ask him to mutually terminate the whole contract, doesn't mean he's going to. And you definitely don't need a legal contract to ask him to.

Because you're not obligated to run each and every trade by the player.

You can simply ask if he is willing to be traded (waive his NMC) which in turn doesn't waive his M-NTC.

Yes, bingo, if they ask if he his open to a trade and he says yes, his limited trade clause kicks in preventing the six teams unless he waives that too.

If you ask him to waive his NMC because they want to trade him and he says no, it’s done, lol.

The team can negotiate any trade the like with any team but when they ask go to waive his NMC and if needed his NTC and he says no, it’s all over.

This isn’t hard!!

Lol ok so you guys think there's a 6 team super duper no trade list that's legally enforced. You're right, it's not hard it's complete fantasy haha.

I'll ask Basu and Godin on Twitter and maybe they'll answer on there cause I'm far from convinced. That doesn't pass the smell test for ne.

Yeah, I do, they are standard clauses in nhl contracts. Lots of guys have them.

Yeah, the Senators are losing one of the next 1st round picks in the next couple of drafts for a botched trade when Vegas tried sending Danadov to the ducks who were on his ntc. The NHL voided the trade and penalized the Sens because the Sens didn’t provide the Knights his ntc when they originally traded him there. Thus, they traded to a team his contract (ntc) blocked.

Shit, as a hockey fan, I’m surprised you never heard of this. Must be new to the sport, lol.

Yes I know lots of players have similar contracts but they are usually full NMC for the first say 3-4 years of the contract which then converts to a modified NMC later in the contract, or whatever the situation is.

I can't speak to what this is, but I will say in most cases if a NTC is specified on these sites it generally means it's active for the years it's listed, that's my thought.

It seems very clunky that you would ask a player to waive their NMC and then they would have a second layer of NTC to determine their future. They would already completely control their future? I'm not seeing the point of that, I maintain that this is incorrect.

Well, you are wrong.

He has a full nmc and a limited ntc for the duration of his contract. Simple search on numerous sites and you would have your awnser in 2 mins.

Blame MB for giving it to him. In this case, Gally has full control.

Go ask Basu, lol



You’re welcome!
Many other places list the same info, ie puckpedia, etc

Fair enough, but that's dumb. It's kind of a moot point though cause this dude isn't getting traded ever. I'll still ask though, seems like a convoluted set of stipulations but that's Bergevin logic I guess.
