Wouldn't it be cheaper to find a way to buy Cole Caufield leg extensions?Habs trade two first round draft picks, Domi, mete, and Jordan Harris to Winnipeg for Patrick Laine and a 2nd round pick.
Habs extend Gallagher to a 5 year 33 million dollar deal.
Habs trade 2 2nds for Josh Anderson. Timmins gets upset and says he liked a player who ends up being a good one. Timmins defenders defend him with this excuse even though he doesn't say that he also liked 15 other guys.
Habs trade down a 2nd for a late 3rd, 4th and 5th to have more darts at the board and take the lowest upside players available, most likely from a high school league aka the Timmins gem that has never worked out.
Habs trade 2020 7th to Philly for 2021 7th.
Habs sign Kovalchuk to a 1 year 1 million dollar deal.
Marc Bergevin says that he tried to improve the team while rebuilding, but you can't give up Ryan Poehling for Ryan O'Reill...errr can't give up Alexander Romanov for Johnny Gaudreau.
Bergevin also says that he is happy with the team and hopes to make the playoffs because only 16 teams make them under normal circumstances.
Anderson is a 3rd line guy.1. "Not Going Anywhere" - Habs lock up Brendan Gallagher on 5 year term with an AAV of 6,000,000 per season
2. "Canadiens upgrade Forward Group" - Habs use picks to Acquire Josh Anderson from the Columbus Blue Jackets
3. "Johnny Hockey on his way to La Belle Province" - Canadiens send a package including Max Domi to the Calgary Flames in exchange for Johnny Gaudreau
4. "Bergevin: I believe we can compete with anybody" - Canadiens Marc Bergevin set out to acquire a Left Shot Dman and upgrade his top 6, and did just that" (wishful thinking)
Gaudreau - Kotkaniemi - Anderson
Tatar - Suzuki - Gallagher
Drouin - Danault - Armia
Lehkonen - Evans - Byron
Anderson is a 3rd line guy.
They were asking for KayKay sti...
This looks terrifyingly accurate.... could be fun. Also, try to predict the date of the deadline.
Mine are;
- "The right deal was not there" - Habs draft Hendrix Lapierre on quiet draft day.
(October 7th 2020)
- Brendan Gallagher signed to 6 years, 36M extension.
(October 9th 2020)
- Habs sign UFA forward Craig Smith to a two year, 4M deal.
(October 9th 2020)
Well, is Danault a top 6? He did put up 53 pts in 2018-2019.Depends which version we get. He did score 27 goals in 2018-2019.
2 years of Fleury's 7M deal is a lot to take on for the 29th overall pick. If he sucks, no way Seattle select him. I'm sure at this stage of his career, Seattle will prefer another of our players, like Evans, Armia, Lehkonen, Chiarot, or Edmundson.
MB will probably use some of the fourteen 2021 draft picks he has to pay off Seattle to take someone we don't want.
It's going to take 1sts or 2nds to do that.
Then a 2nd it isArturri Lekhonen is not worth a 1st. That's likely to be the guy on the block.
Easiest prediction of my life.But the most important headline:
Habs acquire a 2020 7th rounder in exchange for a 2021 7th rounder
