I’ll admit, putting Ben Chiarot on this list is disappointing but it is what it is. Chiarot is in the final year of a 3 year $10.5 million contract and turning 31 in May and because of that, there is no way he will want to stick around on a team that will not be competing for a Stanley Cup in the next 3-5 years.
A modified no-trade clause in which he must submit of 10 teams he does not want to be traded to will certainly not cause any issues. Competitive teams will be lining up to get his services even as a rental, as the the hulking defenceman has shown nothing but professionalism all season despite the tumultuous times in Montreal and has been one of the rare players on the team to show a consistent effort.
His resume and very affordable $3.5 million cap hit will likely fetch a first round pick.
Potential Suitors: Florida, Nashville, Rangers, Washington
