He's worth a low 2nd or a high 3rd. He's a 165 pounds guy who made up the most off his high playing time on a terrible offensive team. He's not going to have any kind of success wherever he goes after Montreal.

 

[From The Couch]

I'd argue he's very much worth a 2nd and a mid-tier prospect. Very valuable on the PK and is great top 9 secondary scoring threat

In both his 20 goal seasons he averaged about 15.30 minutes that's basically what a middle six player gets and is what he is no?

He gets those prime offensive penalty killing minutes though.

Plays fast, can score, great contract...I think Habs hold on to him until TDL and he gets 2 2nds or a 2nd and B prospect

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

Oh ye of little faith.

He is worth his weight in gold. Fantastic on the PK. Super Speed. Very versatile, can play both wings, can move up and down the line-up, he goes in the dirty areas. Plays with heart!

Coaches love these type of players!

A 2nd rounder is a gimme for Byron. And if he has another strong season and is pushing the 20+ goals plateau, if he becomes available at the TDL I wouldn't be surprised if a contender coughs up a late 1st for his services. Especially since he can be resigned quite easily!

Byron at 575K is worth around what Plekanec was last year?

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

He carved himself a niche on a dreadful hockey team, with no real notable success with the other organizations on his pedigree.

You're talking rental prices, so maybe you find someone that is willing to pay a premium. In a vacuum, though, I don't think Byron is worth all that much.

I know HF has the memory of a goldfish, but what do you think about the season before last when he scored 22 goals playing on the division winning team?

As has been mentioned, 20 goal scorer, great on the PK super fast, super cheap. He has value.

Not as much as everyone make it out to be. He has the value of a speciality player - see Grabner. That's pretty much his worth on the market.

2-20 goal seasons later...

'eh, maybe a 2nd'

 

[Hostile Offer]

He is definitely more versatile than Grabner.

 

[topshelf15]

He is a solid player on a very good deal,why would MTL want to move him??

 

[ottomaddox]

Used in a trade to Calgary for the rights to negotiate with Matt Stajan.

 

[Just Linda]

As a rental, I can see him getting a lot of attention. He's cheap, he's likely to fit on any team. Late first, early second isn't too crazy but is highly unlikely. Probably 2 assets, a second+ will get him.

 

[Just Linda]

Age + lack of assets

Ok ,a late 1st and a 2nd to a 4th maybe???Iam not really sure

 

[PriceIsGod]

Montreal has an abundance of wingers (10 guys who could all play winger in the NHL next year). Bergevin will have to move a few or guys won't make the lineup or will be playing the 4th when they shouldn't be. Byron should be traded as younger/more skilled guys like Gallagher, Domi, Hudon, Lehkonen, Scherbak should be getting ice time. Also since he's on a steal of a contract and is a solid middle 6 guy as a rental he should gain interest.

Easily

 

[MasterMatt25]

2nd + meh prospect. I'd say something similar to the Plekanec deadline deal

 

[HOPE]

He’a on his last year of contract, we are likely not making the playoffs, would’nt make sense to hold on to him if you can get assets at the deadline, we can still sign him afterwards!

Seems like you got the value about right. Will all depend on what the market looks like come next season.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

That's fair. Basically what the Rangers got for Grabner.

 

[topshelf15]

Yeah he is a good player and can play anywhere in the top 9 score 15 to 20 and can pk ,he should for sure have that kind of value and maybe more
