HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024 Playoff Edition

[Canadienna]

Lehkonen is a force out there. I think we made a mistake moving him tbh and I was fully on board when it happened.

 

[Habano]

He was one of our best defensive forwards and would look so much better on our 3rd or 4th line than any of the players we have

 

[windycity]

He signed as a UFA mid-ish season.

Yup, it's the playoffs where I figure out where everyone ended up haha

We undervalued him, but I was fine with the deal even if not looking that great right now

Zach Parise is on the Avs? Who knew?

i found out on Wed

Did they just say Avs lost Manson?

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I mean, in today's NHL that's good. Samsonov can't do that.

Very true. Half the starting NHL goalies can't do it regularly.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Lehkonen & Toffoli got into a scrum together. Lol

1-0 Avs after 1. Fast game.

 

[Habano]

Makar > Hughes

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

They should hire Steve Dangle as head coach

No one should hire Steve Dangle for anything.

 

[The Real Timo]

Makar > Hughes

Yeah...Kent's kinda old... and pretty out of shape.

Edmonton was on a PP. Kings killed it off.

Now Kings on PP.

Varlamov is 35 years old. Though if one can be a GM at 81 maybe Varlamov can be goalie 3 more years.

both would be serious trade chips. but i could see a trade like Sorokin to Wild for Wallstedt, Faber and a 1st. If islanders are confident in Varly for a few more years, they could bolster their roster for their present window whatever they think that is

 

[The Real Timo]

I disagree. Leafs totally should. 10 years No Fire clause too.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Now Kings on PP.

Yeah, when PLD is driving like that he's tough to contain.

There's absolutely no way Minnesota would do that.

 

[The Real Timo]

I wonder... can we still trade Carey Price?

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

ngl Dangle would probably give better intermission speeches than Keefe. But in all seriousness, dude needs to go yesterday. It's the only way Shanahan can save face for at least 1 more season.

 

[The Real Timo]

Man... Hyman is sick. What makes me smile is that leafs lost him for literally nothing and kept Marner.
Imagine letting a 50+ goal scorer just walk. Love it!

 

[Habano]

What a terrible give away by Doughty

 

[Gustave]

I wonder... can we still trade Carey Price?

Why? I don’t think our cap is an issue, unless I’m missing something.

Plus, the Yotes don’t exist anymore so no more free space anywhere

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Nice giveaway by Doughty in his own zone. Lol

Then Hyman is left all alone at the crease of the goal. No surprise he scores after he gets 2 whacks at it.

1-0 Edmonton.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Doty with the bad pass

We have a new Don Cherry

Wallstedt is better than Sorokin. And Fleury is there for another year. By then Wallstedt is ready. They aren't trading their best defenseman either

 

[The Real Timo]

So that we could get a top 6 power forward...

I have a feeling that this isn't going to be a good night.

Yeah, the teams that used Arizona as a cap dump are screwed. Chicago doesn't seem to want to do that. No one else is going to use their cap space that way. Maybe San Jose, they have a ton of space now & are still rebuilding.

We don't need to trade Price anyway.
