Ya in hindsight that has been a good trade for the Habs. When you factor in the massive recapture NSH is going to get hit with it's going to be a major loss for them in a few years. The only way that they can get out of it is if a team buys him out of his last 3 years rather than retiring, Mtl has little incentive to do that since their recapture will be minimal. Could cost NSH some assets to make it happen. Could see a nice prospect or 1st rounder sent to Mtl for future considerations to get them to buy him out but then Mtl would have dead cap space which they probably don't want. Maybe a double trade to a 3rd party (Arizona?), seems far fetched.
