Yep it’s terrible for MTL as well

Can you give us your reasoning on why the Canes who have Andersen and Kochetkov trade for a goalie ?
Can you give us your reasoning on why the Panthers are trading Verhaeghe ? And for that low of a return ?

A Jesse Ylonen swap with a pick for Wahlstrom or Dellandrea could make sense

In today’s league, if you are overpaid, you ain’t receiving assets. You pay to get rid of bigger contracts or you do a hockey trade. That’s not it

No one is taking Pageau without a 2nd round pick (look at the Bailey trade with CHI)

Thread: Is Kapanen better than Beck

Owen Beck has probably the better 2-way game and more offense than Oliver, but both are great on faceoffs. I think Kapanen is more suited for a 4th line role, strong on pucks battles. It will be a nice internal battle for the 3C spot for them in a couple years.

Thread: Next season

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hckeydude123</b></div><div>Kings decline that. No need for Dvorak who appears to be getting worse and worse every year (who btw also has almost triple the cost per point of PLD) and Harris who doesn't make the Kings line up. If the kid cant make the 5th worst team in the NHL no chance he can make the line up on a top 12 team.</div></div>

Don’t be ridiculous, Jordan Harris on one leg is better than Englund. He was injured so he didn’t played all the games but he got healthy scratch like 5 times top. There’s a rotation because we have too many defenseman. MTL are a bottom team because we didn’t have a 2nd, 3rd & 4th line

Thread: Ohl big draft

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joblow</b></div><div>Buium is above Dickinson and Silayev by a significant marge. Seattle already is loaded with offensive talent in their pipeline. Trading up for Buium make total sense if they believe he is their guy.
And Sharangovich is the exact prototype of player Hugues and Gorton are looking for.</div></div>

Buium is my favorite defenseman, but Anton Silayev is not going later than 6th OA (Bill Armstrong will draft him if CBJ don’t). Levshunov is going 3rd to ANA and OTT are taking either a F or RHD. There’s a lot of chance Buium is there at 8th OA

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 10:24 a.m.

Thread: Ohl big draft

SEA will select one of Silayev/Dickinson/Buium at 8, they don’t have to move up.
MTL aren’t trading for Sharangovich and definitely not paying that money AND those assets

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>This pretty much covers it for the Jackets. Still seems pretty silly for Montreal IMO tho.

For the Preds... just give up on any hope of ever getting Askarov. He's not available for anything y'all are able to offer. The last time he was rumored to even be in discussions, the target was one of the potential franchise players at the top of last year's draft, and y'all don't have a prospect of that level to offer.</div></div>

It was 5th OA (David Reinbacher) vs Askarov + 15th OA + I think EDM 1st and MTL declined …

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>benjgc</b></div><div>Speaking as a CBJ fan, I'm not high on how Mesar's game has been since the Habs drafted him. As a result, if I were in the GM's seat and Mesar was the prospect coming back, I'd push for 5OA this year and Calgary's 25 1st-rounder instead of Colorado's 2nd-rounder this year, which is essentially a 3rd-round pick. I'm sure there'd be some give and take there, but moving up in the top 5, even a single slot, is exceptionally rare, and therefore exceptionally pricey.</div></div>

It’s not because it’s pricey, it’s just ridiculous moving up one spot. Don’t know if it actually happen in the past a team moving up one spot

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>The answer really depends.

Is Columbus set on taking Lindsrom themselves? Then no.
Is Columbus set on taking BPA no matter what? Including a defenseman? And are we confident that MTL is taking the best forward available? Then yes, PuckPedia's pick value calculator has even value for 4OA at 5OA and 50OA. But I think Columbus would be more interested in making it hurt a little more for Montreal to get their guy...

If Silayev and Lindstrom are sitting there at 4OA, and Montreal strongly wants one, I'd take this trade and just pick whichever one they don't.</div></div>

It’s pretty unrealistic his scenario, if CBJ want Lindstrom, they will take him. If they target a dman, they will draft a dman and MTL will pick Lindstrom. But MTL aren’t trading a bunch of future just to get THEIR guy.

I think they do. Unless they go fishing for a true game changer during the 2025 Free agency

And I can’t see Kent Hughes bringing an underperforming player who makes more than his captain. They have a salary structure and Suzuki should be the highest paid player (could change via free agency in 2025 tho)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy316</b></div><div>Dont just reply with a lie that you refuse to back up that Contradicts Managements Direction since Marc Bergavin was Fired.
If you are Unable to hold up your side of the Democratic Debate then say so, dont just lie based on nothing .
Anyone who listened to Hughes Speak ever knows what you're saying isnt true.
He's highlighted 2 straight drafts by trading for players like this on the cheap and has said he'll continue to make moves like that.

I get it , you loved Marc Bergavin but he's in LAK now
Hughes has been the complete opposite with a buy low , sell high Mantra.

Plus he deals with Kaliyevs Agent for multiple Habs</div></div>

Kent Hughes said he wants a team based on speed & talent (and bigger). Kaliyev as skating issues, I don’t think in MTL management look at Kaliyev and says : yep, he might upgrade his skating. Like why is Armia still training a piano then ? He has the chance to improve it and never did ? Stop replying, IMO I don’t think he is a possible target for MTL, you think they do. FAIR ENOUGH, I respect your opinion
