Confirmed with Link: Anderson to Habs for Domi and a 3rd

[Kairi Zaide]

Bergevin is a Pejorative Slur and I hope he f***ing 089iw4tue74wg7u9bhgyuies

There is absolutely no rationale behind that trade

 

[DonkeyHotay]

Did Montreal do this trade on purpose?

 

[FinnHab]

We cant draft centres and we cant hold them too. Nice.

 

[Video Coach]

Instead of adding a top 6 forward, we removed one

Domi wasn’t going to be a top 6 for this team. Whatever line Anderson plays on he’ll have a much bigger impact than domi did last year

 

[le_sean]

We traded a 70pts player for a 4pts player. And we ADDED a 3rd round pick.

You can't make this shit up.

If Domi is a 70 point player then Anderson is a 27 goal power forward.

 

[habdynasty]

Don’t know much about Anderson but he’s big. Good luck Domi , always liked that guy.

 

[Et le But]

Overpayment to fill a need, cool.

If you factor in that we destroyed Domi's value this last season I don't mind getting a big middle 6 winger for him, throwing in a pick is confusing but when you consider everything Bergevin does is to tread water for eternity than it makes sense.

Anderson isn't a bad acquisition at least. Can produce at a more consistent clip than Armia when healthy, limited upside though. Team is less skilled but that's the direction the Bergevin pendulum is swinging in

 

[Mrb1p]

Once again we just gave a second liner center who can produce 50+ points a season into a injured 3rd liner with no upside.

Another great day to be a habs fan

I freaking hate Barginbin

Inb4 ''hes a proven 27 goals scored multiple times'' ''look what happened with Chariot Dude''

This is a good summary.

 

[Supersonic]

He's injured, he didn't play in the Play-in/Playoffs this year.

Fair enough!

I still stand by my reaction. He played well with Jenner in other playoff series. We need size up front and it must be the case that Domi wasn’t going to fit on the wings here

 

[malton]

Bergevin is loading up on big dudes. Edmunson, Anderson, interest in Simmonds.

Not sure this is the best strategy these days.

 

[Le Tricolore]

I'm glad Domi is gone, but it's weird that we're the ones giving up the pick?

 

[MSLs absurd thighs]

impossible.... a bad Domi is better than a better Anderson

Is a winger Domi better than a winger Anderson though? The answer is no. We had to get him out of here. I wish it would have been for something better, but Anderson makes sense.

 

[jaffy27]

f*** mb!!!! Such a brutal f***ing trade!!!! Unless Domi was asking 6m+ this is an awful trade!!

 

[blarneylad]

Point producing players not welcome in Montreal.

 

[26Mats]

Hopefully Kovalchuk, Galchenyuk or Athanasiou are next - without giving up any assets.

Also, since Tatar doesn't want to sign long term, let's trade him for another 1st and go get Dadonov or Granlund to replace him.

 

[Zorba]

No more than 3.5 right?

Lol. 3.5 for 1 goal is ridiculous. If he get more than 2.5 it’s crazy

 

[ItzaGreat]

We just got #metoo'd so hard it's gonna take a while before we can sit comfortably..

Wow...just when i was almost turning the corner on the MB hatred lol...

F-ing hell man....

 

[General Fanager]

Let's be honest here, as of right now, we are not a better hockey team
If Bergevin thinks this moves makes us better, it's a going to be another long season ahead!!

BOOO more the of "sky is falling" mentality

The Habs are better now than they were a month ago. Miles better imo.

Defense bigger and better
Forwards bigger
Back up goalie better

Probably not done making changes either

 

[sharks9]

We cant draft centres and we cant hold them too. Nice.

Pretty obvious that we traded him because we don't have room at centre anymore.

Anderson should save us cap compared to Domi and is at a more needed position

 

[417]

Steep price but it addresses the need. I don't have a huge problem with it, the Habs have ignored this need for so long, they put themselves in a position to have to overpay.

I ain't mad at it though...

 

[ottawa]

We traded a 70pts player for a 4pts player. And we ADDED a 3rd round pick.

You can't make this shit up.

Domi hit 70 points once...he's a 50 point player at best lol

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Bergevin is loading up on big dudes. Edmunson, Anderson, interest in Simmonds.

Not sure this is the best strategy these days.

It should be clear at this point that Bergevin has no idea what he's trying to accomplish lmfao

 

[VirginiaMtlExpat]

Let's wait and see what we have in Andersen. If healthy, he brings grit and size that this team needs in spades. The third does not matter much, except symbolically. I don't think that Domi was going to repeat a 70 point season on this team. He seems disengaged from this team for good, and CJ had a role to play in this outcome.

But if indeed Andersen is healed, he brings something that this team desperately needs.

 

[Sterling Archer]

two scenarios:

1) nothing
2) makes a trade most think sucks but in 3 years from now most will think was meh.

HAHAHAHAHA called it!

 

[Number 57]

I kinda like it. Domi was so bad in the playoffs. We needed more weight and physical play up front. We have plenty of soft 2nd line playmakers (Drouin). I think it was between Domi/Drouin, one had to go.

Anderson is going to bring something we sorely lack. Only Armia could do the physical job in the top-9.

It's too bad we had to give up that 3rd round pick, though

There is absolutely no rationale behind that trade

Wow... let's chill out a bit here.

 

[SpeedyPotato]

If Domi is a 70 point player then Anderson is a 27 goal power forward.

Fair enough, but at his worst, Domi is a 45 points player, at his worst, Anderson score 1 goal and got 4 pts in 26 games...
