Description

I think Mtl will end up with the 2nd/3rd/4th pick overall and its either going to be Savoie or Cooley. I also see them trading their 2 late first round picks for Connor Geekie as they need to get taller offensive wise.

These trades are only some ideas although they probably won't happen.

Trades

MTL

2022 2nd round pick (STL)

NYR

Allen, Jake

Additional Details:

With Georgiev who might be moved at the deadline or in the summer, I could see a fit for Allen in NY.

MTL

2023 4th round pick (TBL)

TBL

Armia, Joel ($1,700,000 retained)

Additional Details:

Even tho he doesn't have the best season, he the type of guy I could see Tampa call for. Perry and him were really good together last year especially in the playoffs.

MTL

2022 1st round pick (NYR)
2022 4th round pick (NYR)

Additional Details:

(don't necessarily think he'll end up with NYR, but they're my take with their 2022 1st round pick and probably the best pool of prospects). I know nobody likes/wants him but that's gonna be the price like it or not even if I agree its paying a lot for a rental/4th-5th defensman.

NYR

Chiarot, Ben ($1,750,000 retained)

MTL

Helleson, Drew [Reserve List]

COL

Lehkonen, Arturi

Additional Details:

I think Colorado could be a fit for Lehkonen as a good defensive foward that can still get some points. Type of depth you're looking for as a contender.

MTL

Apparently, Buffalo are looking for a RHD to play with Power. Petry could be a fit there although he's probably not the type of mentor they're looking for. Just an idea here.

BUF

Petry, Jeff
