Me, too. After watching him for a couple of games, it’s like, next and the next never came.This is easily my favorite trade of the day lmao
a 4th for COUSINS, well thank god for that, good riddance
I thought "it's on me" marc..oh right Molson has about as much of a clue as this person.The pressure is on Timmins and then on the coaches to develop these players.
Context doesn't matter. He wins all the trades. Not that we can sign so many kids without getting rid of other contracts. But I am sure this is much better for the habs than moving aging vets for first rounders..because DARTSThe point I am making is bigger than what occured today, it's a culmination of ineptitude on a grand scale
He might get a cup ring out of it too...This trade is the one that I am not happy about. Cousins was very good defensively. Would have preferred he re-signed with us and have zero doubt that Vegas will sign him to an extension at the end of the year.
And with that 4th rd pick the odds are pretty good you won't even get a penny a dozen player.Good move to get a 4th. Dime a dozen type player.

If no team stepped up with a 3rd, what are you going to do? It seems MB waited until the last moment to trade him, as the trade was announced right near 3pm.I may be alone here but I hated traded Cousins for anything less than a 3rd.
Keep him so it gives a chance for Laval to push for the POs with Hudon.If no team stepped up with a 3rd, what are you going to do? It seems MB waited until the last moment to trade him, as the trade was announced right near 3pm.

With Timmins and co., a 4th is as good as throwing your pick in the garbage.
Like Mete, Gallagher, Primeau, Evans, Halak, Streit, Grabovski, S. Kostitsyn, and all the other players drafted after the 4th?
By all the other players do you mean d’Agostini... Evans and Primeau are a little unproven but pretty sure you name them all and we had similar results or better in other era...Like Mete, Gallagher, Primeau, Evans, Halak, Streit, Grabovski, S.

That's 7 players off the top of my head from 2003 to 2017. If there's nobody else, that's about 1 every other year. The more darts the better. As you say, it's too early to judge Evans and Primeau, so it's too early to judge this era.
If we're going to compete next year, as is the stated plan, Cousins doesn't make my top 12. Lehkonen and Byron should be on the 4th line and we need to find two skilled wingers (e.g. Kovalchuk and Hoffman) to play with Domi. KK, Poehling, and Fleury should get a full year of development in Laval.
It too early to see Evans and Primeau will have a impact it isn’t too early to say that the others won’t... If we are going to compete next year Cousin or the 5th isn’t a factor either way although Cousins as 13th might be better than nothing. trading him away causing more AHL player being called up might cost the playoff in the AHL, having our prospect play significant games could be worth a lot more to us competing next year than a 4th in 2021. We already have plenty or darts we should have packaged with a pick to move up not acquire more picks (value or Qty) a 4th in a weak draft for a NHL player who is a 26 RFA, is a pretty good deal for VGK since chance is less than 10% that will land a NHLer with that pick, even if we did he might not have a impact and it is going to be a few years down the road...
Considering he was a RFA this was not a good deal, since we need nhl bodies to let our prospect develop in the AHL.
We could have... but we didn’t trading cousins isn’t really a big issues but each deal or the domino effect of all these moves combien doesn’t seem move us in a positive direction.we could have not traded Peca and Called up Peca instead of Hudon. Even with Peca and Cousins gone, there are players sitting in Laval. We could have called them up.
