Confirmed with Link: Canadiens deal Reilly to Ottawa for Sturtz, '21 5th rounder

[BLONG7]

Did we win another Stanley Cup trade?

MB is amazing at trades, he wins dem all!!

 

[HuGo Sham]

I wonder if Habs are also going to trade Kinkaid or Weise before the end of the month ...

yes. we're loading up on 6th rounders

 

[M.C.G. 31]

TIL Mike Reilly makes $1.5m a year. How the f*** did that happen?

 

[scrubadam]

MB has lowered your standards also? This Reilly guy was given a 2 year deal, and MB doubled his salary for this year and next. How can any of us take MB seriously. This is exactly the type of deal he says he wont make.........a trade, for a trade's sake.

Its a nothing trade to move out a guy who wasn't going to play anymore.

Took a chance on him didn't work out and got back the pick we used to get him in the first place.

Its a nothing trade, it won't get us a cup or move the needle. So this thread deserves to be short just like Reilly's time in our line up.

But we all know it will go to 25 pages....

 

[Habs]

Bergy fans applauding another one of his gem trades

 

[montreal]

I seem to recall Sturtz being really good at Penn State, don't know what happened to him last year in the AHL in his rookie year, must have been a bad injury to miss most of the season. Can't recall him in any games vs Laval off the top of my head but we need all the help we can get right now with so many bodies missing.

Good move to get rid of that contract, no clue why they signed him to a 2 year deal when it was painful clear Julien didn't trust him.

 

[That Habs Fan]

Okay.

 

[Habaneros]

At least they got a 5th back that they spent acquiring him from Minnesota. And another body for Laval.

Sturtz will be in Montreal's line up ....sometime this season....

 

[Tuggy]

Works for me.

Basically traded a 2019 5th rounder for 2021 5th rounder, minus some hundred thousands dollars from Molson's pocket.

All good.

I feel a new LHD is coming to Montreal soon.

Don't sign Reilly in the first place, and there would be zero pages. Nothing trade, nothing GM.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I bet Sturtz and whomever we drafted with that 5th get called up before Evans

 

[Michoulicious]

Getting rid of that horrible contract, but at the same time, don't give useless players horrible contracts in the first place

Yeah, but it got them their 5th round pick back.

 

[Habaneros]

Works for me.

i heard you're a big Sturtz fan ...

We got scandella

Told ya.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Sturtz will be in Montreal's line up ....sometime this season....

When Tatar gets traded, we'll have Strutz on with Danault and Cousins.

 

[DavePeak]

TIL Mike Reilly makes $1.5m a year. How the **** did that happen?

If it makes you feel better, think about Matthew Peca who only makes $1.3m a year

About the trade, well at least we got our 5th back, and while it doesn’t free up a contract slot, it does clear some cap space (not like we’re using it much but OH WAIT we just got a $4m D)

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

he gave 1.5m to Reilly , let that sink it , what a complete moron

 

[scrubadam]

Don't sign Reilly in the first place, and there would be zero pages. Nothing trade, nothing GM.

So now its Scandella and a 5th for Reilly and a 4th.

Since the team has so much cap why not take a shot on a D man? It didn't work out we got back the pick.

Nothing GM I agree.

 

[YukonCornelius 5thOA]

Habs been rumoured on him for a few seasons..finally got him ..

Almost for the pick that got Poehling too. Glad it’s like this despite his value going down a bunch since.

 

[sheed36]

At least Reilly should now get a chance to play some NHL hockey and more importantly for Molson his buddy Marc just saved him some more money.

So what about Burkie saying the Habs were picking up a dman today? Maybe he misunderstood and the Habs were moving a dman instead.

Edit: Ok just saw that the Habs picked up Scandella. Sorry Geoff. No saved money for you this season either.

Nothing wrong with that. He picked an asset for Reilly do contract if anything is a positive. The problem was trading for such player to begin with but had the imbecile done good big moves then these minor things are actually great asset management .
But like I had said the problem is not his trade record , that is excellent. It’s his f in everything else .

 

[LaP]

Dorion is bad but he knows how to tank properly.
