The 1st is a nice starting point, but why would Ottawa take that stinky Dvorak contract?

So we're downgrading from Matheson to Chychrun who on top of being a lesser Defenseman also has only one year on his contract and all that for getting rid of a one year contract we can afford (dvorak) ?!?!

Also Xhekaj shouldn't be traded when we have enough other pieces we can spend to trade for young players (i don't think it should be zegras anyways)

The habs was better with Dvorak at the end of the season. He's a good 3rd center and Sens has the cap. The 10th OA pick was a bit much for Chychrun. I'd do it for the 10th OA

With the Desharnais signing, Xhekaj is tradable and I think his value is at a peak and he always will be a 3rd pair D

Xhekaj is worth a mid 1st too, so it's not just a late first

Devils don't need another power play offensive defenseman. Pass.

No, he's not, he's a bottom pairing defensemen with horrible metrics, claiming he's worth a mid first is straight homerism

Welcome to CapFriendly. Sometimes, it's not too friendly.

Since this is your first effort, you're probably unaware that this very trade, either exactly or something very similar to it, has been proposed dozens of times, and always by Habs fans only. We're not convinced that Sean Farrell is an impact player in the NHL, a LhD (no matter how highly you value him) as a major element of a Trevor Zegras trade is unappealing given that we have even greater strength and depth there than you do, and the Winnipeg first doesn't have much wow factor when we own the Edmonton first. Our standing ask for Zegras remains the same: a quality right-handed forward prospect like Owen Beck or Filip Mesar plus your 2024 first-round draft pick. If that seems high, understand that contrary to popular but misguided rumor, Zegras isn't on the block and it would take a high-quality, high-value offer to get him. We're perfectly willing to keep him as one of our top 6 for the rest of the decade.

Yeah no he isn’t and certainly not to Anaheim who has multiple left handed defensemen better than he is already, nearly no value to us

Devils decline that with prejudice. There’s not a chance they trade for Mike Matheson, especially for the 10th overall pick. Mike Matheson would be completely redundant to Luke Hughes in the lineup. Mike matheson would have a fraction of the points he has now if he were on the devils. There’s no chance and there’s no counter offer.

And ? He had one of the hardest shots in the league, good enough of a skater to play on MTL 2nd PP unit last season , tough as nails, an absolute unit of tank, 6'4 ... so what if he'll be on the so called 3rd pair ??? U still traded him away and weaned our D core the management habe been building for years now, you literally did all the wrong moves

In a world where he was
3rd in TOI in the league
9th in assist for defenseman
9th in points for defenseman
While making almost half the salary he should be paid

We could just sign Gostisbehere…or Tyson Barrie…to beef up our 4th power play unit.

(If 4th power play units were a thing)
