Pre-Game Talk: Vegas Expansion draft talk (FLA protects: 11-16-21-27/3-5-6-13/34)

[I am not exposed]

Hearing Marchessault hasn't been picked up.

Dale knows nothing...

Could be side deals involved. Who knows. Let's see how it plays out. Nothing official yet.

If Dale manages to flip Demers for Galch, and replaces Smith with Dadonov, he'll be God-tier.

I just can't imagine the Habs aren't asking for a significant+ in addition to Demers.

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

March could be traded.

We're gonna see some 3 way trades I think.

1st round pick?

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Tallon's weakness is his love of his "guys" and July 1st, but he does not make bad trades. If they do make a trade, I have 100% confidence it'll be a good one.

1st round pick?

I'd do it

Oh yeah... Notice the sarcasm... I've been the one saying all this talk/speculation was ridiculous until nothing is official.

What about JAM if he isn't going to VGK? Two French Canadians for one American/Russian how could they refuse?

 

[floridada]

They're going to probably take Smith then if it's not March.

I really like Smith, so hopefully they have a good potential replacement. Excited and nervous.

Kind of like this atm!

 

[Gentle Man]

Apparently Boston took a flyer on re-acquiring Smith.

Jimmy Hayes for Smith?

also, apparently Reilly changed his twitter profile from Florida Panthers #18 to just 18.

 

[RogerRoger]

LOL, JAM was on the first page of the biggest news paper in MTL.

 

[GermanPanther]

Is something on foundation on it that FLA try to get Galchenyuk from MTL, while loosing Smith and March to LV??
OMG there are so many rumors flying around that incredeable right now.

 

[Chaos2k7]

Batting what did you mean by Smith's attitude possibily not lining up with the new coaches?

 

[IceManCat]

Gally is a 20-25 goal scorer not some savior. Not too much different from Reilly Smith.

 

[FinlandPanther]

Gally is a 20-25 goal scorer not some savior. Not too much different from Reilly Smith.

Let's not pretend galchenyuk isn't a potential game breaker.

 

[CHGoalie27]

Let's not pretend galchenyuk isn't a potential game breaker.

Might he have been hurt during the NYR series?

 

[RainingRats]

Gally is a 20-25 goal scorer not some savior. Not too much different from Reilly Smith.

He's better offensively than smith and has some upside left. Could definitely be a good first line winger, some would say he already is. Montreal would be stupid to move him unless he's part of a package so they get a 1C.

 

[BeezKnees]

Gally is a 20-25 goal scorer not some savior. Not too much different from Reilly Smith.

He's also 3 years younger than Reilly and has a better pedigree.

 

[MintyFresh88]

Didn't they have him playing on the 4th line in the playoffs?

 

[I am not exposed]

Didn't they have him playing on the 4th line in the playoffs?

Yep. On the wing as well. Seems he doesn't have a future in Montreal. Would be very happy to have him!

Keep hearing chatter #flapanthers D Jason Demers may be available. Would have to think #Habs are interested in Dorval, QC native if so.

Here we go again

Montreal has Weber+Petry.

Yeah, they don't need a top 4 RHD, unless they are trading Petry.

Since this thread would be close to full by the time the show starts, we might as well move to a GDT in advance.
