Proposal: (TOR) Nathan Horton, Connor Brown, Connor Carrick for (MTL) Shea Webber

[ottomaddox]

I am trying to be creative here.

I am not sure if MTL would like to take on Horton and his contract, but it could be used for other teams to be creative with. Possibly use it as a trade chip to PIT.

They can decline or possibly suggest a counter.

More to the point:

Shea Weber's contract
Creative trade chip to other cap crunched teams.

 

[General Fanager]

Horrible....

Carrick and Brown arent enough for Weber and The Habs dont even get a bonus 2nd rounder for taking the Horton contract.....

 

[SnizzNasty88]

Biggest Leafs fan in the world saying that this trade is absolutely abysmal for MTL..

Shea's contract isn't a boat anchor for anyone except Nashville. He's still a very capable player. If Montreal opened up trade talks around the league, he'd fetch a lot more than that.

Well what do you suppose MTL has planned for Shea Weber in the near future? Challenge for a cup?

 

[BM14]

Weber can't skate with this team now, never mind in two years.

Well, the fact i would do it (and i don't want Weber at all) means the Habs certainly wouldn't.

why would a cap crunched team want weber?

Thank you. Yes.

I know it seems painful to admit and also the reality of moving Subban, but come on.

What......yikes

This team being TML.

Doesn't matter what Montreal plans are for Weber he worth far more then your offer

 

[iginlafan77]

You’re delusional.
Easy no from Montreal.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

Weber still has value, not much, but it's there.

Part of my intent is to open a conversation about how to use Horton's contract creatively, to see how MTL fans feel about Weber's contract going forward (re-building), how TOR fans feel about Weber, and how a team like MTL could use Horton as an asset/trade chip.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

3rd line forward, bottom pairing D, cap dump for an aging, expensive, injured but still very good Weber?

Leafs do extremely well.

But...what? He’s on LTIR. He has no effect on the Leafs and would have no effect on any other team, other than paying his remaining salary.

I don't see how Leafs come that much on top. They will be facing a creative ways to get rid of Weber's contract.

 

[PKWeber]

Weber for Marner straight up

Sure they’ll counter. Try Nylander+

How do you spell that sound a dial tone makes after hanging up?

 

[ottomaddox]

I can take many of the jabs here from MTL fans, but why be in denial? A new season is a clean slate huh?
