Description

It's a long shot as they have Jordan Staal, but he is getting up in age and they can get another top defensive centerman (
Danault) who is 5 years younger and trade Staal for another few pieces. On top of Danault, they would get two blue chip prospects and a 2nd round pick (maybe upgrade to a first to push it through). Slavin is a very good (underrated) two way defenseman with a 54.7 Corsi percentage, 53.9 shots percentage, 54.7 scoring chances percentage and 54.3 high-danger chances percentage at five-a-side. He managed those marks despite having the lowest offensive zone start percentage, 53 percent, of any Hurricanes defenseman.

It's subjective. Slavin is definitely underrated and what he does on the ice is not represented by his points. Carolina doesn't really have anyone to replace Slavin's minutes unless they think Fleury and Bean are ready, but Habs fans will think this is an overpay because they understand that Romanov and Caufield are some of Mtl's top prospects and will be part of the core moving forward. Carolina fans probably don't know who those players are yet and so they see this as a trade for Danault and "throwaway pieces".

Not only are Caufield and Romanov both great prospects, we are also giving up one of the best defensive centers in the league (very good 5v5 scorer) and a 2nd round pick. This trade is definitely a massive overpayment
