Proposal: Trade Thread #63

[BigDaddyLurch]

Mathias Norlinder will be our best puck moving defenseman.

He better hurry his arse and get here, then, cuz without a PMD on the Top Pairing, the Habs are going nowhere anytime in the near future...

Koskinen for Price straight up.Our goaltending will get better and we save money.

If Columbus continues to suck, I wonder if they'd be open to trading Boone Jenner.

He would add some grit on the wing which we need, plus he can replace Danault as our third line C next year.

In a lot of ways he's actually better than Danault as a C ( and KK for that matter).

Anyone who would trade for Koskinen, for literally anything doesn’t deserve to have a say in literally anything.

I mean I know Price has been bad but Koskinen is probably a bottom 3 starter in the NHL lmfao

If Price is ever traded....#1 Molson has to want to do e rebuild..#2 Price has to be playing at a high level..#3 Price has to agree to waive NMC....#4 You have to take back some of Price's contract and some bad contracts to buy them out if you want a good return of picks and prospects.

If, from now on, Price is playing above average (better than .920% ), and Habs still keep losing much of their games because of their poor offence, I could see MB trying to trade Price for some good, younger assets.

I would easily do that but no way would Edmonton and no way would Price waive to go there.

We need to come to the realization that even if he ends the season with a .950% in his remaining games, no one will give anything of value for him. The contract is a poison pill.

If Habs are retaining a certain % of the $, and takes back another but shorter bad contract, it could be done.... Just very, very expensive move. Vancouver, for exemple, have Erickson on the taxi squad at over 6M $. They could package him and Holtby + a 1st rounder.... for Price. Holtby can be dropped at next expansion draft or traded, and Erickson's contract bought back.

I would gladly make that trade but I doubt the Canucks would give a 1st seeing as how bad they are right now. But honestly I would take a 3rd and those two just not to be stuck with Price and his contract for 5 more years after this.

Here are a few trades that may be a good barometer for what Mantha would get us in return:

2019: Kevin Hayes from NYR to Philadelphia for 1st round pick, Brendan Lemieux and a conditional 4th.
2019: Mark Stone from OTT to Vegas for Erik Brannstrom, Oscar Lindberg and a 2nd round pick.

2020: Barclay Goodrow and a 3rd round pick from SJS to TBL for Anthony Greco and a 1st round pick
2020: JG Pageau to NYI from OTT for conditional 1st, conditional 2nd, and conditional 3rd.
2020: Blake Coleman to TBL from NJD for Nolan Foote and conditional 1st round pick


What would it take to put mantha in a habs jersey ?

 

[Weber Fan]

Price for Girard and Grubauer...

Tatar and a 1st. Then you could flip Tatar at the deadline for a 2nd +

edit: I think it is a bit low for Mantha. Habs could send a b prospect on top of that. This would make the return 1st + 2nd + b prospect +

 

[Benstheman]

Price for Girard and Grubauer...

Price at 7M$ for Byram and Grubauer.

 

[le_sean]

Price at 7M$ for Byram and Grubauer.

You couldn’t even get Byram for Caufield and a 1st. You’re not getting him for one of the worst contracts in the NHL even if you retain $3.5m.

 

[The Great Weal]

Price isn't getting traded. We are stuck with him and Bergevin won't want to admit he was wrong.

Exactly this. Bergevin will keep telling himself that Price and Weber are still elite because he’s an idiot.

Yes,the Canucks have by far the most bad contracts,if you trade a Price who is playing really well i would want a top prospect like Podkolzin if i'm taking back some big bad contracts.

They aren’t even big contracts since both Holtby and Eriksson have only one year remaining after this one. Price has 5 remaining. If he sucks already at the age of 33 I am not looking forward to seeing ages 34-38.

Talking about bad contracts... The new Gally's contract - starting next season - will bite the Habs' butts pretty soon.

 

[Pat Riot]

I would easily do that but no way would Edmonton and no way would Price waive to go there.

Pretty sure he would waive to go on Mcdavid teams. He doesnt seem very happy in Mtl IMO

I highly doubt it. They aren’t good and no one wants to live in Edmonton.
