Do we pick up another teams broken dreams and hope we can do better than Dach, Newhook?
Presumably we trust the judgment of Vincent, whom we hired to coach Laval.

If we trade for Jiricek, we'd have direct Intel from his coach last year and it follows a high degree of confidence in his potential (and price paid for that potential)

If we pass, and he's traded for an easily matched offer, you'd have to think the feedback wasn't stellar...

A couple of UFA centres that would fit in nicely....

Vilardi and Rossi

What would you guys offer them this summer? We are going to have a ton of cap space if it goes to 95ish. Grabbing one of these two may pay off huge. Allows us to move Dach down to third line or over to the wing. Personally, I like Vilardi and if he keeps current pace of ~65 points....I'd go somewhere around 7 million for him on a long term contract.

2025-26
Slaf - Suzuki - Caufield
Laine - Vilardi - Demidov
Newhook - Dach - Gally
Heinemen - Evans - Anderson

If Dach walks the following year as a UFA because he feels slighted or wants more money/responsibility....so be it. We will have Beck, Kapanen and Hage ready by 2026-27 for that third line role.

They’re both RFAs. Wouldn’t trade for or offer sheet either of them.

Benett, Vilardi, Rossi?

Don't you guys remember trades are hard and top 6 centers are not available?

And we have 2C at home.

I saw Lavoie mentioning Olivier in Spanre’s post game show. He’d be a perfect fit for the Habs. Do they wait for him to become a UFA or do they try to land him sooner so they have a better shot at signing him?
I think we have a good chance if he becomes UFA. Hughes is his former agent, he would become a fan favourite, prepare his after career and come
closer to home

Remember how many fans said we didn't need Martin Necas

Who would ever want a 6'3" 200lbs skilled forward?
