Value of: Galchenyuk + Sergachev + 1st for a center

[jacks*]

McCarron, Sergachev and 1st for Wheeler.

Drop Sergachev and we might think about it.

 

[stubbadub]

Galchenyuk, Sergachev, and a first gets you Tavares if Tavares wasn't such a pivotal piece to the Islanders' success.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Galchenyuk + Scherbak + Jusslen + 1st

For

Carter + Muzzin

habs answer is no

there are cheaper and younger C's to be had...would prefer to focus on Duchene

 

[NarcoPolo]

Drop Sergachev and we might think about it.

That's terrible

That's terrible

why would the habs deal chucky and a 1rst for Wheeler when this kings fan offered Carter and Muzzin for one or two prospects more. A better player with a top 4 D.

Because the poster I quoted said Mccaron, not Galchenyuk.. Massive difference

lol i assumed chucky not bug mac. that must have been a joke. No one would dare offer big mac as the center piece for wheeler.

 

[Passchendaele]

Why does everybody want to trade a 23-year old, big C who is currently 2nd on the team in PPG (yes, ahead of Radulov)?

Not a chance the Habs would offer that.

No .What's terrible is McCarron, Sergachev and 1st for Wheeler.
Talk about HUGE overpayment from the Habs.

by everybody you must mean the same four alleged hab fans who keep posting 27# trade proposals over and over and over again

Maybe because he's pretty underwhelming, and they'd like to cut their losses and move on?

That deal improves your team. Serg and a 26th? overall and a 3rd liner maybe for Wheeler?
Serg is what is of value here but not for 2 or 3 years. Wheeler will give you 70 points next year, play on the PP and kill penalties. That'll help Price re-sign. The only thing the Habs lose off of their roster is McCarron...all 5 points of him. He'd be a really good 4RW for years on Lowry's line.
Copp Lowry McCarron would be a really decent shutdown line. Serg starting to mature in 3 years just when the Jets should be contenders. It works for both teams.

edit ... Wheeler has missed 7 games in the last 9 seasons.

Canuck fans will kill me for saying this, but I'd do Horvat and maybe even the Canucks 2018 first rounder for that combination in a heartbeat.

I am sure you would.

First off, he's big.. but he doesn't use his size at all.

On top of that, aside from a hot streak to end last year in a bunch of meaningless games he hasn't looked overly impressive at C.

His PPG is nowhere reflective of his play, especially compared to Radulov. Radulov works his ass off and creates chances almost every shift it seems. Galchenyuk is a often a ghost and needs the puck given to him, he's not a guy who can make chances for himself offensively.

The guy is still 23, so obviously he can turn things around and still be a top line forward in the league. The issue is the Habs are looking to contend now, they can't be any more patient with him and need a legit top line C who can help the team succeed.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

I'm sure it has been mentioned somewhere in here, but I think something based around Giroux and Galchenyuk would make sense for both teams.

Some salary would have to go Philly's way to offset Giroux's contract, but I like this base for both teams.

 

[SnuggaRUDE]

ROR might be the best C with term in the peak of his career that montreal could target.

 

[Cirris]

This is better value than what the Sabres traded for O'Reilly - so realistically you would expect a top-tier centre. And literally the only one that comes to mind is Tavares; if talks with the Isles don't go well.

Other than that, there is no centre who will be traded who is also worth this much.

Even more so was the fact Col were somewhat forced to sell. As they wouldn't pay 7mil per for him, and he was scheduled for UFA status in a year.

 

[CapSpace]

The only available guy I'd want for the OP's offer is MacK.

 

[BleedBlue14]

I don't think Colorado would turn down that trade lol
