Solid trade for the isles. Sucks to lose pick 18 but nice to shed some money and get younger. Plus Lou has a great track record in Round 2 so ill take it

I’d rather have the Islanders package than the one you’ve offered for 10th (I would reject both)

I think Barron would be on upgrade and insertion of youth on your back end

Weren't you just saying in another thread that you need another LHD? Matheson would fit a top 4 role.

Jersey doesn't need Matheson but just judging on what Montreal got for Romanov, I would say that Montreal wouldn't be adding picks, I would think that Matheson brings back 10th + a 2nd or good prospect.

NJD needs a shutdown dman who can kill penalties at a high level.

Matheson isn’t that.

He’s bad on the PK, he’s a PP specialist who’d be the 4th dman to get PP time in NJD.

And he’s underwhelming at even strength.

Rather bring back Graves

Romanov was 22 years old. Guhle would be the guy you’re comparing to Romanov, not Matheson

Why add Myers to give away Barron? Just sign Barron.

Matheson for 10 OA, the rest is too much.

That's a lot going to NYI imo, could be cleaned up and a couple assets dropped. Send back a retained Dvorak.

Harris gets more or Harris stays/gets packaged.

NJ has three dmen who were better on the pp than Matheson? Surprised to hear that considering none of them were the one of the 9 guys above him in defense scoring this year.

Also thought you guys had Seigenthanler and Marino as your shut down guys?

I get you would think he's underwhelming 5 on 5 but consider he faced the toughest competition league wide last year and held his own.

If you're looking for a shut down dman, Matheson ain't it. If you're looking for a good #3 guy who moves the puck, skates with the best of them and can qb a pp then Matheson is who you're looking for.

Doesn't match up to your interests though

Is he going to play over Cernak? No. Raddysh? No. Perbix? Probably not Crozier? Probably not I'll quote Brian Engblom relaying a conversation he had with Jon Cooper earlier in the day on a lightning game about Max Crozier. If it weren't for the cap situation he would have been up all year.

NJDs PP with Luke Dougie and Nemec QBin has been 22% over the last 2 years.

Matheson has QB’d the habs PP to 16.5% over the same time frame.

He did not “hold his own”. He got caved in

Matheson for 10th overall is utter delusion.

Ryan Graves would be better for NJD on the PK and in the shutdown role we need. And he’d be available for free if we wanted him

Love how you used team percentage because otherwise you would see that Matheson would have been third on your team in powerplay points

Ahhh so he got caved in because your jfresh card told you he did. Makes sense

Matheson touching the puck constantly on a dog**** power play isn’t providing value.

The habs give Matheson full reign on the power play. The result is a power play that’s bottom 5 in hockey. I’ll pass
