The price the Canadiens will have to pay to acquire Jeremy Swayman is revealed

Doug Armstrong, general manager of the St. Louis Blues, recently reignited the debate on hostile offers in the NHL by stating that no rule prohibits them, after submitting two proposals for Edmonton Oilers players.

This statement raises questions about the Montreal Canadiens' potential interest in Swayman, especially following the trade of Yaroslav Askarov to San Jose.

Some analysts suggest that the Canadiens might consider a hostile offer for Swayman, but the cost would be prohibitive.

A contract exceeding $9 million per year would require two first-round picks, a second-round pick, and a third-round pick as compensation, potentially leading the Bruins to match the offer.

Thus, acquiring Swayman appears unrealistic for the Canadiens, but the situation warrants continued attention.
