TSN: The Drouin Saga Part III "Don't Tell Me What the Poets are Drouin"

[Jeffrey]

You are dreaming if you think Tampa is going to hand over Drouin to a division rival for anything less than an over payment.

If the price is Galychenyuk we move along...
But if the price is McCarron, Beaulieu, picks or prospect and we don't get him then we are stupid.

 

[Runner77]

TBH, I did not watch the game. Statistically speaking, he does not look impressive. I will be happy if we get him, provided we do not overpay.

Doubt Yzerman trades him to us.

Same point made by Pee Air today, thinks he's going to a western team.

In the situation we are in, trading Beaulieu for anyone not named [Insert Surefire top 2 prospect] would be stupid. Ie. trading Beaulieu for Drouin is stupid. Very stupid.

Beaulieu is unimpressive.. His decision is suspect.

I personally don't see anything special with Beaulieu.

I wouldn't deal McCarron. I would deal EVERY other prospect but him. Deal Lehkonen. What he's doing in Europe has to be impressive.

What's stupid is opening a hole on LD for the next 3-4 seasons, that's what stupid. Markov is 37 yo...

I don't see anything special with what you're bringing here, generic critic of weightlessness..

This team has holes EVERYWHERE except goaltending....and even this....it,s all about how Price is with injuries. But mostly, the day you trade to get somebody interesting, you create a hole somewhere else.

There are so many 'faux amis/false cognates' here .... bringing here 'saying', generic 'general' , critic 'criticisms', weightlessness '?!?!?!?!?' 'inconsequential crap' ?!?!?:/

Not making fun of you, FYI, but thought you might want to improve your English.


Beaulieu is not the answer to the the question that drives us mad. I don't even know how good he will become. Hopefully he improves a lot, but he may just end up as a bottom 6. He is no Mc Donough.

Sure, with the minor detail that the hole right now is filled with a cost controlled dman...

That's a ridiculous price for Drouin. No team, anywhere is paying that.

 

[Jeffrey]

- Prone to brain fart.
- Weak shot.
- No consistency.
- Maturity is questionable.
- Bring nothing to the PP

 

[The Great Weal]

I have a feeling we are about to overpay big time.

 

[Runner77]

Trolling people on Twitter with a fake account is kind of fun. Especially since it's using a name of someone who doesn't work for TSN at all, I just added "TSN" to the end of the Twitter handle..

It gets even better if you can find a way to add a blue checkmark logo, you know, for authentification purposes.

 

[Rapala]

Can we cross Lavoie off our list as a reliable source?
I've spent more than 24hrs waiting on something to break here.
Don't make me wait 2yrs like Eck did with the Montreal/Edmonton fizzle.

 

[vokiel]

I have a feeling we are about to overpay big time.

I hope your feelings are reflections of what could have been, but Bergevin in all his incompetence is just not that dumb.

 

[Poochie_D]

Would love to add Drouin if one of our seconds' and a prospect would do it. Maybe a bigger type of trade could be made here:


Beaulieu, Flynn, 2nd


Drouin. Paquette ??

 

[Team_Spirit]

Using the Habs to drive up the prices again.

One team will get burned ( like philly with Lecavalier ) and Tampa will come out of this as the big winner.

urgh

 

[nyhabsfan]

This is what I am truly afraid of.... we seem desperate and they are holding all the cards for a player with "potential"

 

[Tyson]

The problem with sending a Beaulieu to TB for Drouin is that the Habs have stagnated several young players development to include Beaulieu, Galchenyuk.
Trading someone who can already play in the NHL for a player who has yet to prove he can is a major risk.

I still think Beaulieu as top pairing potential should the coaches start working at developing these kids and let them play. Will we ever see Pateryn on the ice again? I wonder how his confidence is doing?

We WILL regret trading BEAULIEU (and McCarron) if this is true - 2 of three of Beaulieu, McCarron, Scherbak! I would offer up Scherbak and Juulsen - two first rounders and if they don't like it - no deal!

 

[Kriss E]

So Bergevin doesn't want to overpay for established players but he'll do it for an unproven prospect?...

 

[CupInSIX]

So Bergevin doesn't want to overpay for established players but he'll do it for an unproven prospect?...

He's proven at least 2 things:

-he can complain and request a trade
-he can struggle to score in the American Hockey League.

Just what we need! Maybe we can flip him for a 4th line grinder in a year when we find he doesn't fit in Therriens system.

 

[Habsawce]

Boucher will turn him into a superstar, relax guys!

Replaced by a cost controlled winger.
