I still have faith in this guy and dont want to give up on him yet, some players help you get to the playoffs and others help you win in the playoffs.
#1 Crosby is not outNext summer, the Habs will still be stuck with Gallagher, Anderson and Price. Why the buyout? They have ample cap room to keep Anderson. Quality UFAs will be signed before season's end. Crosby is out for instance. The cap will increase and HuGo has done an excellent job at locking up the future core long term.
IMO, Columbus would only be interested in Anderson if the Habs paid an added incentive for them to take the contract. It would be weaponizing their cap space, just as Hughes has done with the Canadiens. It doesn't make sense for the Habs to do this now, though, and I doubt that Hughes would do it.Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but with Columbus having more cap room do you think they’d be interested in Anderson? I think it would be stupid
I think most fans want to see an on ice compliment that will be closer to what the end product needs be and the sooner the better.Next summer, the Habs will still be stuck with Gallagher, Anderson and Price.

Tyson does not need white knighting but if you are arguing Anderson’s laughable, face palming play every time he hit the ice is attributable to his toi or team mates I feel compelled to disagree.
Send this guy to Laval and hope he gets picked up on waivers.
edit - unless Nicolas is a miracle worker…
To your 2nd point, nhl contracts being guaranteed he’ll pay him (and everyone with a contract regardless) no matter what, and these guys don’t work a factory line or client services so it’s not like it creates a hole in the output. Seems irrelevant.#1 Crosby is not out
#2 If you can't even play him on your 4th line, will Molson accept paying someone 5.5 mil to play in the AHL?
Oh please, that's not why Anderson was horrible last year. His performance was completely on him. The reason he "might" bounce back is because he's been a 20 goalscorer (or on pace) for most seasons in his career.Just throwing this out there: Maybe playing with a legitimate NHL centre would help?
Any chance you publish his total toi spent per team mate on here since you are based on facts? I don’t have access to this:Here we go again...
I'm not "arguing" anything. I simply pointed out that claiming the player who ranked 9th in ice time received "top line minutes" is plainly and simply false.
I've already said this, but this isn't an opinion, it's simply a statement of fact, so it's kind of bizarre it's led to multiple responses, almost always with a response to something I haven't said. I have not once, win this entire thread, talked about the calibre of Josh Anderson's play. I've only discussed his ice time, which was dramatically increased in the original post.
I really don't know how to be any clearer.
