Who's a good LHD that we can acquire for cheap? I'm thinking of Michael del zotto. Anyone else?
Watching the World Juniors has made me a little jealous of the teams with a lot of prospects playing. I know we will need to deal for something and likely will need to include a pick or 2, but I would be hesitant to deal the farm.
Of our 2nd rounders, I would include 1 from 2018 in a trade deadline acquisition, with a B prospect for a Vanek (type) pickup.
We still need a bigger move I think. I just want to make sure we get some prospects in the pipeline.
instead of going all in for a duchene shall we try another Danault like trade to get another young skater ??
Gunnarsson/Bouwmeester/Hickey could be potential targets.
The only rental on the Blues that would got in in Montreal is Shattenkirk but there's no reason why the Blues would trade him. They're going for a cup run.
I didn't specify Shattenkirk for a very good reason, he wouldn't be cheap to acquire and he's a RHD. Bouwmeester/Gunnarsson are not their highest priority on their depth chart and one of them will be lost in the expansion. The Blues have a few prospects knocking at the door like Dunn, Schmaltz and Lindbohm playing in the AHL. Gunnarsson could probably be had for a 4th round pick. Bouwmeester probably a 3rd + decent prospect like Audette.

I would take bouwmeester in my team any day
Why would we trade Gallagher? Seriously, can someone explain to me why a team like Montreal would trade away a guy like Gallagher? I'd really like to know the reasoning.

Hum, because he's a honest player, but not a star who is easily tradable for an upgrade.
Would be a good complement to Weber. But St-Louis are also a contending theam, and Markov, Emelin and Beaulieu are more than capable LHD.
Our need is in the top six...
Shaw fill a similar role and we need more top 6 players (especially a top center)

When is the last time ANY team has traded a heart and soul player like Gallagher who happens to be in his prime?
