If I were Tampa I would just move Johnson.
2nd 2017 + prospect + Barberio for De Haan?
The NHL's annual holiday roster freeze begin at midnight Eastern time on Dec. 19, expiring at midnight ET on Dec. 27.
...media speculation suggested Arizona Coyotes center (and pending unrestricted free agent) Martin Hanzal could be a good fit with the Canadiens. However, ESPN's Pierre LeBrun reported on Wednesday that he didn't believe the Habs showed much interest in Hanzal and isn't sure if that's changed.
Also on Wednesday, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman suggested Winnipeg Jets center Alex Burmistrov as a trade option. Bruins center Ryan Spooner could be available, but it's unlikely the Bruins will trade him to a longtime rival such as the Canadiens.
Of the 3 legendary veterans in the last year of their contracts......Jagr,Iginla,Doan who is a better fit with Montreal for a deadline trade if any.....I would go with Jagr.
DD+1st for a real center.
thanks
And the beat goes on....
MB will stay tough till feb/mar
I too am inclined to think nothing will happen until the TDL. Asking prices right now must be through the roof with so many teams still in it.

If Tampa is out of playoffs what could it take to get Drouin? Seriously...I think we can start with a 2017 1st + ....but what is the +? is it a roster player or more picks/prospects?
Would a 2017 1st + 2018 2nd + Byron do it? probably not...
How about a 2017 1st + Lekhonen? does that get interest?
Does any of the above have interest from our fan base?
Im not very good at these...tough to determine fair value sometimes.
Jagr or Iginla for me.
Jagr I think would look real nice next to Radulov. Both have so much enthusiasm for the game.
Both of them are RWs. Radulov prefers to play the right side too. Given the recent play as well I wouldn't split up Radulov and Pacioretty either.
Sergachev, 2017 1st, Carr/Andrighetto/Hudon is my guess
Drouin hasn't shown any consistency, that is way too much for his 13 pts in 22 games. If MB trades Sergachev AND a 1st, it will have to be for a proven young stud, not a maybe
I can't believe I'm going to say this, but maybe we should just pay the Vanek tax again JDLR and a 2nd for Vanek and a 5th...
If we can't add a playmaking center maybe we leave Plekanec between Pacioretty and Radulov, and give Galchenyuk Vanek and Gallagher...
