This makes no sense unless they move out Laine or Caufield, they won’t move Demidov or Slaf…
Crosby I could see signing a 3 year deal for cheap in a 2 or 3C role
Slaf is Rantanen 2.0
Personally, that’s make no sense, especially if the Laine’s guess works very well. Their top 6 is likely already draw :
Cole – Nick – Slaf
Laine – Dach – Ivan
And Rantanen isn’t a player who will gonna like playing on a 3rd line…..
Even if he’s available the habs wont have the cap space
Wont happen dont get my hopes up.
We have Slaf and Laine, we don't need Rantanen.
Not a chance
This won't ever happen
This is a wet dream, but still just a dream. Not gonna happen
Ain't happening. Hardly a point in making this. Miko will most likely retire an Av
not gonna happend we dont have top 6 room for him and he wouldnt like to play on third line even if hes avavbile we dont have cap for him
way! too expensive, for the parsimonious Habs! 9 point something $$ milllions
Come on dude stop it, Avs will sign him.
As a Preds fan, I’d love for Rantanen to go to Montreal just so we don’t have to deal with him on Colorado anymore 😂
It's possible to have three great scoring/offensive lines without the Canadiens moving out Laine or Caufield but the Canadiens would for sure have to move Gallagher and Anderson to make this happen..
I like it! Not holding my breath, but we're all allowed to dream 😊
They need to save money so that they have cap space to lockup their young defense when their entry level deals expire. Don't want to end up like the Leafs where you spend all your money on forwards and hardly any of it on defense.
Would be nice but no way
