Montreal makes the most sense. They basically have a 4 year window for the Cup. Have tonnes of cap space. Won’t be able to sign somebody as good as Kadri for 7 million or less on the UFA market with the cap going up and the UFA market sucking. And they don’t have anybody who would be a reliable 2nd line center for this season or probably even next season.
Teams that are in Montreal’s position usually decide to try to make a run when they have a window like that.
