Value of: J Anderson (50% retention for 2 more years)

[Leafshater67]

...just in case you missed it, LeBrun reported the Habs were offered a 1st for Anderson (last year, I believe) and declined...but you know more than he does about it, right??...

I’m calling BS on that one too. No way.

If they really received a 1st offered for a cap dump, they should have jumped for joy and took it. No way that happened

I think it should be more like a 1st vs Anderson retained 50%.

That said, I personnaly think that Anderson isnt realy to trade anymore. He's a good asset.

Anderson isn't a bad player he's just over paid. He's more of a 3.5 million dollar player than 5.5.

At 2.75 I'm guessing he'd get 2x2nds or a 2nd + 3rd

What trade are you comparing this to?

No need to retain half of his salary to trade him.

Habs will surely lose a bunch of their veterans at the deadline or this summer (UFA), so Anderson's presence will be necessary.

Habs will need veterans to fill some jerseys on their bottom 6, and Anderson is a good one, even if overpaid (Habs will have a salary cap loose anyway).

Anderson been among our best players. Why move him? Overpayment I get it. But you think that will happen?
