Proposal: Trade Thread #60

[Belial]

What's a better piece, Caufield or Danault?

As for the cap, Columbus has over 4M in cap space and only Drouin and Danault count against the cap - they count 3.58M more than Dubois.

Again as I said if this is happening they will ask for one of Suzuki or KK, so this discussion is useless IMO.

 

[Wats]

I'd be happy if Montreal can manage to develop KK into Dubois quality player.

 

[Crusher117]

Neither.

Neither alone would be enough to get him and it's won't be worth it to take 2 players and pick or prospect for him when our kids are showing true promise for the first time in years.

 

[admiralcadillac]

Both KK and Suzuki could be better than PLD and frankly I’d rather keep the guys we’ve developed than bring in a new guy

 

[Redux91]

No.

They can have anyone else tho

 

[Aces on the road]

Kekäläinen do not want KK.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Kekäläinen do not want KK.

But what about KK AND Lehkonen.

 

[Belial]

Kekäläinen do not want KK.

You his brother?

 

[Legend123]

Highly unlikely

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Danault

 

[Aces on the road]

But what about KK AND Lehkonen.

Nope, Danault plus is only realistic choice.

 

[TheBuriedHab]

I think its probably one of the tougher decisions MB will have to make in his entire tenure.

Do you trade KK plus some assets for PLD? KK might very well become a better player than PLD, but he also might not. I think if you want to win the cup this year, you try and make that type of trade. But I could also see it haunting the Habs down the road.

Its a tough one and I fault nobody for not wanting to trade KK for PLD. Suzuki should obviously be a hard no.

 

[Hostile Offer]

I'd pass on the makings of another Sergachev trade. You don't trade your top prospects.

It's really a tough decision, I can see KK having a better career than Suzuki, to be honest.

If you're a GM and you decide to make such a trade you better don't f*** up!

Oh, of course you do. As much as I like Suzuki, I'd even consider trading him for PLD. With Kotkaniemi, I would personally drive him to the airport.

You don't think he has relatively the same upside? Man, I can easily see KK being a dominant center going forward...

Maybe. But for me, this projection is anything but easy. PLD, on the other hand, is a beast.

Honestly, I wouldn't want this job when you have to take this type of decision.

 

[FrankMTL]

Neither, I pass if it takes one of the two.

That is likely. But we don't know that for sure.

But I c as n understand why you don't want to discuss any other scenario.

 

[CHarlie]

For me.......Kotkaniemi and Suzuki...... habs for life.

 

[Belial]

That is likely. But we don't know that for sure.

Hahaha , what another scenario? My boy Danault? I already said that I'm ready to drive him to Columbus if Kekelainen is ready to do such a deal.

 

[26Mats]

In another scenario Danault would a secondary piece to fill the current void at center left by PLD.

The main pieces would be really good prospects. I would put in Guhle and Norlinder, and Primeau - and they'd probably ask for Romanov, But since Columbus is stacked on D and have two young goalies, I think they'd be more interested in Caufield, Poehling, Mysak, etc... plus Drouin.

 

[26Mats]

Danault Armia Caufield 1st 2021

PLD 2nd 2021

Switch Armia with Drouin and Poehling.

 

[26Mats]

No. You're nuts. Keep playing EA.

Yeah, no way Columbus does the trade you proposed.

Go back to the psych ward if you think differently.
