From a Montreal perspective, it kinda works.

You get a veteran RHD that will both replace Savard in a year as a mentor and can still play a top 4 role.

You give up an asset you can afford to in Harris and a cap dump in Anderson....

Honestly, I just don't see why the Pens would even consider it unless it's really as a favor to Letang.

yes and no, adding another veteran to the mix while they still have a bunch of prospects on the backend isn't ideal.

well one that could actually round a pp would be useful

all depends if Hudson is ready to make the jump or not I guess !

yeah, it's all gonna depend on him but I think the idea with Hutson will be to make him spend as much time as possible with the big club, I'm not sure if spending the majority of the year with the Rocket would be all that fruitful for him development-wise.

for the couple of games he played last year with the habs he sure was awesome to watch

It's not perfect for the Habs.

But it's freaking terrible for the Pens.

i like how it looks for a second like the last car isn't gonna let him by and then just pulls aside.

you know what, on second look, he totally does hit one of those cars. look at the car that the driver jumps out of at the end and then watch it loop again. he actually hits 3 of them at least a little bit.

this is not our bus.

Unless he somehow ends up in LTIR at some point.

Which never happens.

Ever.

Nah, you end up with the same number of d-men, with less opportunity for kids to play. Habs really need to look at moving 1-2 defense (if not more) out at some point (some possibly before the start of the season, depending on who is ready to move up from Laval).

We have 3 kids ready to come up soon and Barron on the doorstep.

Again, 4 years @$6.1.

He will be a liability or eating cap space by the time we need him on the PP, when it might actually matter.

No thanks...

unfortunately for the pens I think they have too many missing parts to pull a Doucherov kind of move anyway.
