Value of: Toews to Montreal

[Legend123]

Lol I wouldn't take him for free at 10.5M. Keep him.

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Toews Crawford Seabrook for Price Weber Galch 1st

lol

 

[Baksfamous112]

What's the point for Montreal? They're not contending for many years. Toews doesn't make them remotely close to a contender.

Acquiring a guy like Toews definitely brings them closer to a cup. I’d bet they end up being pretenders and with the right moves, could be contenders as soon as next year

Please. That’s insane.

 

[Price is Wright]

Haha well this thread was good for a laugh at least. Pretty much every proposal has been utterly ridiculous with a 0% chance of happening.

That's what makes them fun.

Who wants a serious Toews trade to Montreal?

Seriously, I do.

 

[Price is Wright]

Seriously, I do.

Jonathan Toews refuses to waive his no movement clause. There you go.

 

[slappipappi]

Exactly If he wanted that he could just stay in Chicago

Chicago was a playoff team until Crawford went down.

Please. That’s insane.

How is it insane? I’m pretty sure a lot of teams wouldn’t take Toews for free with that awful contract.

Contenders for what? They've got an awful D. They got an overpaid goalie. Please enlighten all of us how a guy declining ( Toews) suddenly makes Montreal cup contenders....

That was my point. He was the one saying otherwise.

Awful D? Overpaid Goalie? They had a very rough starts and then Weber went down. Petry started to play much better, Mete was just fine where he was. Benn, Schelmko and Alzner got from mediocre to meh. Juulsen, Reilly are playing well. All we need is a healthy Weber and someone decent to play with, which can be acquired via trade.

Call Price overpaid if you want, but he’s still one, if not the best in the league.

I won’t ever bother comment on your « declining » Toews. Clearly you haven’t seen him play. He’s still got it and with two solid wingers, could easily pull a Bergeron.

Do a poll and ask if Toews makes Montreal a cup contender. And yeah....hes ( Price) overrated. How's he performed in the playoffs? Not up to par. He's had one magnificent season.

What's insane? Thinking no team would take Teows for free at 10.5M or that the Hawks should keep him?

 

[Habs10025]

Doesn't Toews have a NMC? NotMoving(to)Canadiens. Highly unlikely he would want to go to a team with little hope for the playoffs for a few years.

Toews would be a 50 point player if he played in Montreal and not worth 10.5 mil per

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

he isn't the 1C he used to be and he's overpaid

But... character.

Imagine a core of Toews, Weber, and Price for the next 5-8-8 years. (How many years ago would that have actually looked pretty epic? Not too many. And now...)

 

[Hockeyholic]

Ok.

I put up a poll.

 

[McBaevid]

Why would Montreal want 2 horrendous 10.5 mill cap hit contracts

 

[rent free]

He’s still one of the best two-way C in the game and he might be overpaid, but not that much. Wait until Matthews, Laine, Tavares etc.. sign their new contracts. ~10M/year is the new norm for 1C and elite scorers

Toews isn't a 1C or elite scorer though.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Rather have Toews in Chicago until he retires.

 

[beowulf]

Don't see anyway that it would happen.

Really?

 

[Hockeyholic]

Really?

Yepp.

 

[Captain Mountain]

Really?

Obviously. Spectacular seasons for goalies are when they have save % above .930 and play more than 60 games. Otherwise they suck.

 

[ChiHawk21]

Lol I wouldn't take him for free at 10.5M. Keep him.

that wouldnt be smart. He would be ur best player. unless you are in a rebuild which i dont know if you are? im not sure what the canadiens are doing.
