To CBJ: Patrik Hornqvist Brayden Tracey VGK 2 2022 To MTL: Brandoon Saad Radim Simek Future consideration: CBJ retain 50% of the salary of both Saad ($2,000,000) and Simek ($625,000) totalling $2,625,000 for this season. I have too many 1 year contracts so took the opportunity to move a couple of those out and acquire future assets without taking a significant hit to the roster. I was able to leverage my cap space by retaining salary to acquire a bit more on my side. Aim is to deleverage the risk on the one year contracts by downgrading slightly and acquiring future assets. Deal worked for both sides and was a quickly agreed this morning before most of the league woke up .

Montreal agrees. We upgrade both on the wing and the blue line as Hornqvist move and Folin will make room for slightly better Simek, and we do it without increasing salary. Sure, they are both also upcoming UFA:s, just like Hornqvist, and Saad will be expensive to resign, but the improvement this season is big enough to take the risk and worry about that problem later.
I hope Hornqvist will be the St Patrick saint to his new Irish GM before retiring and that Tracey will develop well in Ohio. Thanx for quick and easy negotiations Tommy!
