Description

Proposed by Arpon Basu and Marc-Antoine Godin from the Athletic on their combined article "Can the Canadiens be contenders? How signings, trades and a cap crunch could change the team in the next 18 months".

The trade would be done in the offseason.

To EDM: Max Domi + Victor Mete

To MTL: Darnell Nurse + prospect

They first mention that the Habs should just offer sheet him, then add the Domi + Mete swap.

Who would the prospect be? Poolparty? Yamamoto? Samorukov? I doubt someone like Broberg or Bouchard would be involved. You decide!

Arpon basu is the biggest bullshater in quebec. Dominis olaying great hockey since last year. He had a little slump this year in November just like almost everyone on the team but trading him for nurse doesn’t make sense unless the prospect coming back is broberg or bouchard and i really doubt the oilers will sacrifice them

I wouldn't do it. I think Domi and Mete should be part of the youth movement we should be doing for the next 2 to 3 years. Players we should trade at the deadline this year are Tatar and Petry with retention for increased value and amount of suitors.
Tatat retained at 2.8mil and Juulsen for Puljujärvi, Samorukov and Edmonton 1st (top 10 protected) is where I would start.

Not discounting what Domi has done here.....but........Nurse is still on pace for another 40ish pts season. He can skate, is 6'4'' 220lbs 2-way top paring Dman........if MTL want to acquire him, Domi is one of the only options imo for EDM to consider it.

Personally for me it would depend on the prospect or maybe even a pick as well coming back. but it's a lot closer than people think in value imo.
