For the Canadiens, the deal is far more about cap flexibility than anything else. Cole, 34, is in the 2nd yr of a four-year deal that carries a $four.5 million cap hit and was negotiated by former GM Pierre Gauthier, not Marc Bergevin. Following a 35-goal, 26-help season, Cole has six total points in 2013. He'll match in properly with the Stars, who presently make use of Jaromir Jagr, 41, and Ray Whitney http://www.canadiensfanstoreonline.com/michael-cammalleri-jersey, forty.

Ryder, 32, also had 35 ambitions final season http://www.canadiensfanstoreonline.com, but is a free of charge agent this summertime. He commenced his job with Montreal in 2003 with a 25-objective season Brian Gionta Jersey, then scored thirty in two of the following three. Following a 14-objective 2007-08 http://www.canadiensfanstoreonline.com/maxim-lapierre-jersey, he signed with the Boston Bruins, in which he won a Stanley Cup in 2011.

Cap concerns aside, the Canadiens, despite their Eastern Conference-major 27 points, could use yet another best-6 forward. Ryder, with six goals and eight assists in 19 games, nevertheless fits that bill. Plus, that complete "favorable contract" and "extra draft select" factor. So mark this one particular down as a big win for Montreal.
