  1. Agree on the salary retention. Would have made it conditional, if they trade him they eat all his salary. Glad it's done.

  2. Geez, Amy…You're too generous with your gradings. haha. I'd say C- at best and probably only because it's a better situation for Jake, his family, Sam, and Cayden. I can't imagine how stressful it's been, not only for him, but the other 2 goalies. All of their stats have went down. These guys have had to deal with this all season. I honestly don't know how they have been able to handle it.

  3. kent hughes did a shit job!!!!! three goalies for a 3rd round pick!!!!! i told everyone they couldn't move savard, nobody wanted that bum, he will ruin our young defense like he is doing!!!!! what are these idiots doing !!!!! savard is so bad we should cut him

  4. Everybody knows that the goaltender needs to be in the net and playing a hot cold tender can push you through any deficiencies. The team has having three goaltenders did colossal damage. Marty St. Louis needs to be fired in Sandy, Hughes and Gordon with him.

  5. we should buy out savard ,armia, gallagher, devorak, then we get a coach & "lets go!!!" 3 more years of suffering coming with the crap players & contracts

  6. Good video. I like this deal for Montréal and I think it had ro be done. Allen is a good mentor and great guy but he admitted it was difficult for him to perform in such an unusual 3 goalie rotation. Getting back a conditional 3rd that could become a 2nd Rd pick is excellent value under the circumstances. I give this deal a solid A minus . B+ at worst.

  7. I'd say a B is fair. Salary retention sucks, but having 3 goalies is not a good thing either. 3rd rounder is a good deal and I consider that the meaty part of the draft where some interesting players are found; I'm thinking a 1/2 point a game player. Look at it this was: they weren't going to carry 3 goalies for another season so you could've lost Primeau or Allen for less or nothing at all.
