Proposal: Trade Thread #63

[1000eeer]

There has never been a window....Bergevin is a disaster.

It is not black or white. It's certainly not perfect.. That's for sure. But It is an overstatement to say MB or the team is a disaster.

What I will say though is that time is of the essence here.

The pieces of the puzzle don't fit together.

The only plan that would make sense would be to trade Weber (and Price, if you believe in miracles) to give our young prospects the time to adapt and develop.

Ex:

(MTL) Weber <-> (PIT) Bad contract + Poulin + 1st round pick 2021
(MTL) Price (salary retained) <-> (COL) Grubauer + Byram

Btw, I think MB will prefer t0 sink with both Weber and Price in the lineup rather than trading them

How is the team not a disaster? He’s been GM for 10 years and they are still a fringe playoff team. That’s with two separate 3rd overall picks.

Bergevin is 100% to blame for every loss this team has....for 9 straight bloody years he as not picked a direction he is solely responsible....every other gm in hockey has either tried to win in the present or the future except the worst gm in hockey Bergevin....he is a bloody disaster and needs to be fired right bloody now.

And complaining and bashing everything does what, exactly?

Um. What ?

Yeah f*** us for hoping the team is good one day. What awful fans.

 

[All Star John Scott]

Not that complicated, you're allowed to hate the moves but what does complaining about people who don't do?

 

[All Star John Scott]

Yeah f*** us for hoping the team is good one day. What awful fans.

And how does complaining make the team good someday?

A 10M C Price is worth byram.
A (salary retained) Price is worth Graves.

 

[le_sean]

Complaining or criticizing?

I’m not just “complaining” I’m also not buying merchandise or going to games. More people should do the same.

And how does “oh it’s okay Marc, you’re trying your best” help?

I don't know, but I know how making the team good will stop us from complaining someday.

The media is even more pathetic. Instead of asking why this idiot was allowed to make a third coaching change in his tenure they were focusing on his powder blue suit and long hair.

Bergevin can't do no wrong.
Every draft - Fantastic draft, Bergevin picked well
Every trade - Great trade
Every coaching change - Great decision, great new coach

Even if the Habs makes the PO, he did enough damage and we are not where we should be after 4-5 years of "rebuilding/retooling" and it's not looking like we're going to get there now that we see both Price and Weber are slowing down.

7.5M retained + 1st pick and it could work.

Carey Price would not even get us Byram's hockey card right now

People are really clueless sometimes. No one wants that contract. You’d have to retain at least $3m and give up a pick just to get a worse pick and a bad contract. You’re not getting a top prospect.

Just pointing out the idiots thats all

Colorado wouldn't trade Byram alone for Price with 50% retention and a first. Just go look at Grubauer's numbers compared to Price's.

The contract MB gave to Price is killing 90% of his market's value. Price's play kills the rest.

 

[Pat Riot]

Price value is similar to Skinner value. Which is negative

 

[MTL-rules]

Price value is similar to Skinner value. Which is negative

Nope... skinner is on another level of bad... Price is still well regard because of his reputation... Skinner doesn't have a reputation, he just has the worst contract in the NHL.

... Price does have negative value, just not as bad as Skinner.

 

[RandomTask26]

Price and Byron
for
Vlasic and Jones

(hoping Jones' play can be salvaged)
