Value of: 3OA + Galchenyuk

[Spearmint Rhino]

carter is the same age as weber. interesting to hear habs fans talk like he is ancient but weber has a lot let in the tank...especially considering carter had 32g/66pts 2 years ago and had a 40g/67pt pace this past season

for the record i think the habs need to keep the pick and rebuild, but thats not what this thread is about obviously

Assuming we aren't rebuilding Chucky for Carter would be a fair trade given their ages, maybe Habs add something but it's not 3OA unless there's something much better than 20OA coming back
I wouldn't expect a Top 3 pick in a deal for Weber

I think the habs add significantly. Carter is still very, very good. nearly a lock for 60-65pts if healthy.
and he can actually play C, unlike Galchenyuk and Drouin

maybe the 3oa is overkill, but kings would surely want more than just galchenyuk.

One is coming into their prime and the other is on the back stretch so likely they will cross over in a couple of years

 

[Hostile Offer]

He's 27 and to trade the pick for him would just continue the cycle of mediocrity. ROR would be a bandaid

Wanna see Drouin at C for one more year? Yeah me neither.

Defensemen stay good longer than forwards.
Also, the habs are not in a position where they should trade young talented players for older, but better players. So trading a top 3 pick for a guy as old as Carter would make absolutely no sense.
On the other hand, the team wanting Weber is a team that is in a win-now mode. So asking for young talented prospects in return for Weber makes sense for both sides. The habs rebuild and acquire prospects, and the team acquiring Weber dont lose any of their core players.

I was thinking of a 3 way trade between Edmonton, Buffalo, and Montreal.

Buffalo gets
RNH
Galchenyuk
Edmonton's 2018 3rd round pick

Montreal gets
ROR
10th OV pick

Edmonton gets
3rd OV pick
Buffalo's 2018 31st OV pick

I think I’d do this from MTLs perspective.

D-men age better.

Besides that, I don’t think any logical Habs fan is asking for a top 3 pick, a young top 6 forward fir Weber and a late 1st.

Ekholm?

Galchenyuk.

 

[TT1]

Galchenyuk + 3OA for ROR
Galchenyuk + 3OA for Nuge +10 OA
Galchenyuk + 3OA for Carter +20 OA

lmfao, stop ur not good at this

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

lmfao, stop ur not good at this

They're all overpayments, my God.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Galchenyuk.

I'd probably do it

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

I'd probably do it

Good to be in agreement.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Good to be in agreement.

Fills a huge hole on the left side either next to Weber or Petry, just means we have to resign Pacioretty which isn't the end of the world

 

[HuGo Sham]

What can this package get the Habs in return?

who cares? the last thing habs should be doing is trading 2 young, quality forwards

 

[HuGo Sham]

Galchenyuk + 3OA for ROR
Galchenyuk + 3OA for Nuge +10 OA
Galchenyuk + 3OA for Carter +20 OA

habs touch none of those deals. the LA one is particularly gross

Yeah, seriously, I don't know how people can come up with those kinds of deals.

maybe it's overkill? lolz. sure, leafs fan. 'overkill' your own players

oh wait..only habs fans can come in this thread?
maybe just stick to the habs team board if you dont wanna hear opinions of other fans?

lol @ galchenyuk being considered "quality"

6 years in the league and he has managed more than 20 goals once.
hit 50pts for the second time this year but was -31. awful away from the puck


canadiens would absolutely move him in a package for ROR. get real

Chucky is absolutely a quality young forward, 50 pts on one of the worst teams in the league while getting 3rd line minutes most of the year is very good. He's -34 for his career, the whole team sucked this past year and you're judging him on plus minus? If the coach ever pulled his head out of the GMs ass and gave him a shot at C you'd even see better numbers

 

[WJCJ]

Maybe I just have never seen the right game but I have seen Galchenyuk play probably 35-40 times, I have yet to be impressed. He just seems mediocre as a top 6 player.

I'm not saying he is bad, He's just no big deal as far as top 6 players go. Maybe one day he gets better but he is at the age when the more players than not have had or are having their career year.

I don't think this package is a package that teams are going to be fighting to acquire.

What in the world does one need to do to be considered as a "quality" forward if 50 points is not enough?

 

[Scintillating10]

What about Faulk for Galchenyuk straight up? Keep your pick.

Getting closer...than those previous low ball offers. But still not quite sure. Would you do Pacioretty instead of Galchenyuk?
