Proposal: Trade Thread #62

[Deebs]

In your dreams , more like this
Suzuki
Danault (resigned)
Drouin
Caufield
Guhle
2 x 1st rounders

eichel is a top 10 player in the league and arguably only mcdavid, Matthews, Mackinnon and draisaitl have more value

Any GM that would consider doing something like this would probably be fired on the spot by the President of Hockey Ops or the Owner himself.

 

[Miller Time]

2 deals to re-set depth/cap in view of contending for next 2 years...

1
To Anh
Byron, Armia, 2nd, Brook

To Mtl
Henrique, Comtois

Ducks give up Comtois to save 2.4M +1 year of 5.8M in downgrade from Henrique to Byron, test out Armia (or move him as a rental for more futures), add pick/prospect.

Habs get good C fit behind Suzuki/JKO for next 3 years (who can bolster LW this year) and add very good young fwd who fits needs perfectly for next few years (young, physical, defensively responsible goal scoring LW)

2
To Cgy
Chiarot, Tatar (retain ~2.8M prorated), 2nd

To Mtl
Valimaki, Bennett

Flames beef up D and add scoring top 6 winger (filling 2 needs) & add a pick.

Habs get mobile LD & versatile RFA fwd with some upside who needs a fresh start.

Drouin - Suzuki - Anderson
Comtois - Danault - Gally
Henrique - JKO - Toffoli
Lekhonen - Evans - Bennett

Mete/Valimaki - Weber
Edmundson - Petry
Mete/Valimaki - Romanov

Price
Allen

Next year, Danault walks, Bennett/Henrique fill top 9 C/LW spots, progression of Suzuki/Comtois/JKO/Evans/Bennett bolsters our forward group, ditto Mete/Romanov/Valimaki for d group.

Depth as good as any roster top to bottom, any big jumps by young talent could push either group into top tier talent-wise


Poehling, Caufield, Fleury, RHP bolster depth.

Price, Weber, Petry, Gally continue to provide veteran leadership.

Lol easy on the juice bud this is crazy value for 1 player never in a million years Bergevin does this.

Is this serious or satire?

 

[Kraken Jokes]

I only do that if we can get a player that is both good at faceoffs and better than Evans.

He's better on draws than anyone we have. Better than Evans? Maybe. Way more experienced that's for sure. As I mentioned, what if any of our top 4 C's get injured?

agreed; what an insane proposal, and even more insane considering the one who presented it, thinks it's fair and logical

 

[HuGo Sham]

serious personally, i'm too tired and impatient to breakdown how ludicrous it is

Eichel can be a top 10 player he's not worth 3 nhler , and 4 first round picks

 

[sampollock]

Habs will stay tight till deadline, then find a face off guy.

 

[mariolemieux66]

Time to get rid of Price, Gallagher, Drouin and Danault.

 

[sampollock]

MB still must wonder

 

[MarkJ]

can this man help us?

 

[MTL-rules]

Time to get rid of Price, Gallagher, Drouin and Danault.

Naw... Just Price, the day we move on, we can start new and reload... As long as the boat anchor is there, this team ain't going nowhere.

 

[sampollock]

Mete for Bennett

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Mtl isnt winning nothing with this defense.

Its missing so much. High end talent, mobility, passing.

Pretty much every one but Petry and Romanov need to go.

Mtl has no legit number 1 defenseman that you feel comfortable rolling out 25 min a night.

 

[expy]

Time to get rid of Price, Gallagher, Drouin and Danault.

Gallagher is the only one I would keep, but his new contract is pretty heavy.

Bergevin and contracts, amirite?

 

[Habfan10]

Habs will need a 4th line veteran faceoff specialist at the deadline. Could Glendenning be a target?

I would say we need a 3rd line centre. When has Danault won a big pk draw? Never that’s why our pk sucks.

 

[ziggy46]

Get rid of Drouin, he is faking terrible, send him to Calgary for whoever

 

[Supersonic]

Ready to trade Struble + 1st + cap dump for Ekholm

Seriously no more Chiarot

 

[NeptunesTrident]

Phil Danault(resigned) for Sam Girard.

 

[Beendair Donedat]

Four trades to make before the deadline:

To Buffalo: 2nd round pick 2021, “B” prospect
To Montreal: Eric Staal

To Nashville: 2021 1st round pick, Josh Brook, Paul Byron, and a 2022 3rd round pick
To Montreal: Mattias Ekholm

To Colorado: Phillip Danault
To Montreal: 2021 2nd round pick, and Drew Helleson.

To Calgary: Victor Mete
To Montreal: Sam Bennett

Playoff lineup looks like:

Drouin - Suzuki - Anderson
Tatar - Staal - Gallagher
Bennett - Kotkaniemi - Toffoli
Lehkonen - Evans - Armia

Ekholm - Weber
Edmundson - Petry
Chiarot - Romanov

Price
Allen

 

[jellybeans]

We will never win with Price make a deal with seattle get rid of the princess.

 

[Yannman]

Eichel can be a top 10 player he's not worth 3 nhler , and 4 first round picks

and the three nhlers are former first round picks

 

[1000eeer]

We need to give our 2 young centers capable wingers. Wingers who can drive a line from time to time and produce regardless of the centerman performance.


Toffoli (+++), Anderson and Gallagher are that kind of wingers.

Drouin, Armia and Tatar aren't.

If it was up to me, I would trade Drouin (big time)* and let go of Armia and Tatar.

What could we get for Drouin, 1st round pick 2021 and a decent prospect? That, I don't know...

*Taking into account that Caufield might take a spot in the top-6 sooner than later.

 

[slybel]

We will never win with Price make a deal with Seattle get rid of the princess.

The only would be to sent our 1st to the Kraken so they take Price.... But Moullllsssson will not pull that plug!

It's still early in the season... but it's short...

The D has been blah... We have no PP quarterback.
