Proposal: Trade Proposal Thread-Solution in the locker room edition...

[Deebs]

I'm joking about the first one. We were going to trade our 1st to the Wild(probably for Scandella) but didn't because of Poehling. And apparently Henrique for Galchenyuk was pretty much done but Bergevin backed out last second.

According to who?

For which one?

Both

Both

Timmins mentioned that they were going to trade the pick but Poehling was available(http://hfboards.mandatory.com/threads/habs-and-wild-had-a-deal-in-place-at-draft.2363719/). And I can't remember the source for the Henrique one(not sure how credible the source is) but I do know that Bergevin was very interested in Henrique, and the Devils were very interested in Galchenyuk.

Great, thanks

Trades are hard

I always felt that Henrique would be a good target, but not for Galchenyuk.

Eck says nyr and Habs talking, lol

 

[Hannibal]

I would pay A LOT to get Josh Anderson out of Columbus.

Perfect winger for Drouin.

 

[DXStriker]

Another EK rumour lol now he is saying NYR and MTL talking MAJOR trade and could involve Captain swaps

 

[Runner77]

I can't believe "Eck" is a thing here.

Jarmo Kekalainen and Doug Armstrong at the Laval Rocket game!

It feels like the only player worth watching over there is Jerabek ._.

 

[Habs]

Someone on HNIC said Habs wanted Kreider, but Bergy would want Zuccarello I'm sure, because he's small and overpaid. Or perhaps DD is coming home? If that happens I'm done foerever.

Better to get the perfect centre for Drouin.

Lernout maybe... BigMac... But yeah, not a lot to scout down there...

I'd offer them an extra player of their choice if they'd agree to take Lefebvre and his coaching staff as part of any deal.

It's a quagmire of 4th liners and AHL lifers on that team.

Big time. At least they'd come to their senses and let Drouin play where he's most comfortable.

This is all we've seen these last 5 years -- pushing square pegs in round holes. At some point, the guy pushing the pegs has to come to some kind of realization.

The whole Drouin at centre thing smells more like a preposterous advertising stunt then anything else.

He's stuck there I'm afraid, until Bergevin lands a real one. Not that I dislike Drouin. Quite the opposite actually.

Hire the kid! Has GM potential. Love the way he got that square peg to fit in with plenty of room to spare.

I wouldn't read too much into it. GM meetings are in montreal starting friday. Kekailaine was here last night with his team and instead of flying out and coming back on Friday just stayed in town instead and since there's no habs game tonight went to the ago game. You'll see tomorrow's game against Arizona most of the 31 gms will be in the pressbox

Maybe Keka went to check the only real asset the Rockets have -- a brand new spanking AHL arena a stone's throw away from management.

They were talking about Duclair tonight on TVA. He seems to have fallen out in Arizona. But there was a reference to baggage, which I don't understand. At the right price (Mc Carron, Fucale?) do you think he could be a DSP like player for the Canadiens, a big body 4th liner, with some top 9 scoring touch when on?

They should definitely test the waters on Duclair, if they haven't already. I like where you're going in terms of trading chips -- it's not as if McCarron is going to suddenly become more than what he is -- his skating relegates him to a 4th line, although he stands to gain on the intensity front and using his body more. Unless there is something really bad going on with Duclair, this is a good time to try and get him.
