I think that’s an honest assessment. Domi was traded in a change of scenery deal the Habs clearly won last time. But I could see another change of scenery trade in Domi’s near future. For a guy like Anderson (or another promising but enigmatic player like him that just hasn’t hit on all cylinders consistently for whatever reason).Not comparing to Ehlers or Rackell - they have more value. I can see Josh Anderson + only due to intangibles of Josh that the Habs could use.
That said, i am low on Domi compared to most Habs fans. But not so low that I would accept quantity for quality.
That’s a better trade for Montreal than taking three dimes and a quarter in a quantity for Domi trade. It’s risky because an Anderson may bust or underwhelm like Drouin, but if MB can get 27 goals out of an Anderson type or 20 good minutes a night from a 2nd pairing guy like Hanafin... he’s upgraded.
I do wonder if Domi will move to a Canadian team or boring cold weather town like Columbus or Buffalo. That may limit his return too if the other GM sees Domi as a rental. His attitude or the perception of it and lack of roster flexibility (Sucks on the wings) does his value no favors.
