Confirmed Trade: [MTL/LAK] Nate Thompson and 2019 5th round pick for 2019 4th round pick

[CupsOverCash]

I like Nate. Good pick up for Montreal.

 

[Mrb1p]

Why give a 4th rounder for a guy that can't even play on the Kings... Jesus.

 

[llamateizer]

Nate Thompson for a potential drop of 12 ranks in 5th round

 

[Dr Pepper]

That's gotta sting the ol' self confidence......knowing you were used to "sweeten the deal" to get your team a sturdy 4th round pick.

I mean, it's not quite getting traded for $1, but it's still a fairly low valuation.

Half eaten Poutine from La Banquise. Take it or leave it.

 

[Hostile Offer]

Are we acquiring every 4th liner in the league for the playoffs again?

 

[BruinsBtn]

That's a hilariously low price. Now watch them find some all-star at the end of the 4th round.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Dwight King 2.0

 

[A4T1L6]

Wow that is a nice deal for the habs

 

[The Great Weal]

Hopes for a 2nd would settle for a 3rd and prospect (ok i hope that )

Lmfao

 

[De Montreal]

Thompson agreed to lift his NTC (why the hell did he had one?) to come to Montréal, while Dwight King was absolutely disgusted at the idea of leaving LA for Montréal. That alone make me believe we shouldnt compare the two. King still had some talent, he was just completely uninterested.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Remembering when Bergevin went out and grabbed Ott and King. I think Bergevin has done a good job so far this season. I don't even mind bringing back Weise. Schlemko wasn't working but he needs to stop dumpster diving lol. Did Montreal need a 4C that badly?

Yes.

 

[Kingspiracy]

Doing thompson a favour? Seems weird LA had to add a 5th to get a 4th.

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

I guess gms do read these forums after all lol

The Julien line up special. MOAR Grinders.

 

[ProspectsFanatic]

It was kind of expected that Thompson was worth nearly nothing, did LA really wanted to spend 700K$ (1.65M$ full) left on his contract for a player like him at the position they are in?

Because Ottawa.

I'll take a poutine from La Banquise any day

Pretty good bargain for the Habs if Thompson works out. They don't usually make these kinds of deals.







(that was sarcasm by the way)

Dorion gave him a NTC

 

[Mattavarner]

Thats less value than a 7th round pick lmao

 

[De Montreal]

Only thing is I thought we would be looking for someone right handed to take faceoffs, though

 

[T_Cage]

The difference between a mid 4th and a high 5th is essentially nothing.

At least that Future Considerations guy didn't get moved like he always does at the deadline. Kid can never find a groove...

 

[THE HOFF]

Habs gave up abselutely nothing. No expectations whatsoever.

He's played in almost every game.
