Proposal: Trade Proposal Thread: TDL Edition

I know it won't happen, but if we acquire Byfuglien, Bergevin will probably be a lot more likely to trade Petry.

How so the way i understood it was Byfuglien was retiring

On this forum, or in the organization?

Best scene ever.

 

[bsl]

we are 6 pts away

You buy the bettman sucker game. 3 point games mean Habs are done.

You just knew it was not going to end well for him after that scene.

It's reading nonsense like this that makes me immediately exit this thread and run to the tank one

I’ll be following you. Grab me a double vodka soda if you get there first.

Chuckle. Mine was a reference to raising Arizona btw.

Ah whoops didn't caught that. I just like to participate in ramblings

I don’t want to make the moves because realistically it doesn’t improve our odds to win the cup.

For starters, let’s be honest with ourselves: Taylor Hall will not sign in a Montreal unless it’s a drastic over payment. So can we all agree on that? Or do we have rose coloured glasses on?

Secondly, Hall will be 29 in November of next year. That’s not horrible in it self, but you have to seriously look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself if you believe a 33-34 year old Hall will be with 10M per season? Frankly, I don’t believe 29 year old Hall is worth that, for starters.

Third, Hall has had trouble staying healthy his whole career. He has one 82 game season to his name. He misses approximately 10-15 games per season. Keep in mind, he’s getting older not younger.

My beef with that line up that was posted is that it’s just another mediocrity band-aid slapped on on a sinking Price/Weber boat. The long term solution is stocking up on picks and prospects the next 2 seasons and re tooling, not acquiring assets that will eventually be a detriment to that retool.

Bang on. Refreshing.

If you dont count the games in hand, Florida has 68 we have 62 points

Florida is not in the playoffs. Beside you can't ignore the games in hands. The teams in front of us that we need to catch to make the playoffs have cumulatively a grand total of 18 games in hands. It's next to impossible they will be 0-18.

8 points out with 20 games is A LOT. Specially since we don't have the tiebreaker. We are officially dead.

Seems some Leaf fans have visions dancing in their heads of Max Domi in a Leafs jersey with the usual HF Leaf trade suspects of either Johnsson, Kerfoot, Dermott being the main piece in getting a trade done and yes we've also been Bracco'd.

Let’s be honest, you have no idea whether Hall wants to play here or not. He doesn’t seem to like playing in NJ (which is the opposite of us) and I can’t blame him.

If we get Hall and he plays here for 5 years and then we have to throw on a mid 1st round pick to move him, what’s the big deal? Remember, if we get Hall we can move Drouin and Domi for assets now, so why worry about some down the road cost.

Most 1st and 2nd OA picks tend to be productive into their mid ‘30’s, unlike less talented players.

I'm not sure I want anyone on the Leafs - that team is full of underachievers

 

[The Great Weal]

If the most we can get for Kovalchuk is a conditional 2nd, we should try adding a 2nd to Kovalchuk for a 1st. I'm tired of trading down from the 2nd rounder to get little to nothing worthwhile.

Even a conditional 2nd you take that.

Other people watch Kovalchuk and know he's quieted down again.
