Would be odd not to, all things considered.
One center short, a Slovak to help Slaf and cap space is available. Perhaps another team snags him first.

Not worried too much about the center depth even if we trade Monahan and Evans, I can guarantee you Andersson finishes the season with the Habs

Obviously - no GM would trade for that waste of cap space unless we eat a ton of cap.
Yeah, I don't see how that's a bad move at all lol

Andersson and Evans are interchangeable.
They should trade Monahan ASAP before he goes down again with an injury. The clock is ticking, it’s not if but when will it happen.

Ofcourse he does, even if the habs we're shopping him at this time (which they aren't) Anderson is not a trade deadline type of deal. His cap hit is too restricting this time of year.
I believe the habs like having Andy on the team and don't see his contract as a problem, but if they were to move him it would have to be in the offseason.
The only way Anderson gets moved now is if we take a terrible (preferably expiring) contract back and are paid handsomely for it, otherwise they're quite happy to keep him.
Anderson has a role to play on this smaller slower team, which holds more value to them than a lower draft pick.

Lias « Silver-Medal-Tosser » Andersson and Josh Anderson are two different players!
I could see the former joining the latter in Montreal after TDL in a bottom-6 role - but a more optimal scenario for the Habs seems to weaponize their cap space and seek* an expiring UFA center to fill a jersey and let the Laval Rocket players gain playoffs experience.
*Either a cap dump for incentives or maybe more likely in a Monahan trade to extract more value from him?
(Alternatively, what about Monahan + COL 2024 2nd for WPG 2024 1st + MTL 2024 2nd + M. Barron?)

With the Condotta call-up this isn't happening anymore. Very odd decision. Don't understand why not just keep Condotta in Laval to help them with their playoff push.

supply and demand even if he is plan B or C how many player better than Monahan are available, how many team looking for help center/fw depth or faceoff or special team, how many of them have cap space to fit a player with higher cap hit. Is play was great last year before getting hurt he has been just as good this year, he will fetch a 1st or a legit prospect worst player have gotten better return in past TDL…

Sens looking for 200ft players.
Looking at all areas to improve.
Trying to do something before, or at the deadline, but is willing to wait until the offseason
No conversations with Tarasenko for an extension.
Staios hasn't talked to Formenton since he took over and all talk about him will have to go through the league.
Going to take a look at the coaches in the offseason
Asked about Roy and didn't really address it and talked about Martin and the job he did and the type of coach he wants in the future.
Asked why the sens didn't signed Formenton, but Staios wasn't there, so he's not entirely sure why.
Got Asked again about Roy and said timing again
Disappointed that Chychrun's name is out there. Was asked about the 3 LD and said Chychrun can play the right side, so there's some balance there.

It could be that they just want to see if anyone claims them, otherwise they'll keep them on the roster.
Edit: Rusicka to ARI, DiSimeone to NJD

Well I was dead wrong lol. We preferred hurting Laval and playing a guy with no NHL future instead.

He's not that good, and he's slow. He adds a contract we don't need, and takes up a roster spot that we need for Newhook.
I'm good with not taking other team's garbage off waivers. We have enough of our own.

They must have a real low assessment of the guy. Otherwise, I don’t get it.
That, and/or Hughes has a few deals in place that are close & involve some contracts/roster players coming back...
Still a bit of a surprise they didn't consider it even as a 2-3 week stop gap
