Description

Re-sign Monahan and Toffoli with Full NMC the first 2 years and 10 team NTC the last year

2027 the year of the Hutsons
Lane will thrive in the NHL
Quinn will thrive in Laval with long term Winger Tuch hopefully with Beck as they'd make a good line stylistically
Cole will develop until 2027 maybe 2028 then join us a year after the Matheson Transition of Power

At this point in 2027-28
Hutson-Reinbacher
Guhle- Mailloux
Xhekaj-Kony(Captain Kony from the KHL had his GM confirm NHL is the plan after next year)

By this time Xhekaj's deal will be in its final year
we'll either be a contender who cant afford him or one that we dont have the minutes for.
Either way he'll be coming out of the rotation by then unless we have issues re-signing Guhle.

This would be the timeline Cole Hutson would be turning Pro in
for those worried about size he's 2 inches taller then his brother before his growth spurt and 13lbs heavier then his brother in his draft year. He's most likely going to end up 6
foot area 200lbs like his dad so size shouldnt be a worry just look at Struble who's that size

Why Bother?
If im Lane Hutson and my 2 brothers play for the Habs
Im taking less to ensure it stays that way and that works out to the GM's advantage

Tons of people matter but the Hutson Trio could turn into the most marketable set of players MTL has had that dont all lead the team.
Its a totally unique situation where each brother is so different but good that they could be 2nd ,5th and 12th in scoring
But still end up being the most popular players in MTL and possibly the League.

Until then MTL would look like in the post
While Laval would look like below

Heineman-Gignac-Mesar
Tuch-Beck-Q.Hutson
Farrel-Davidson-Kidney
Pitlcik-Kapanen- Perrault
Guindon

Trudeau-Mailloux
TBD Veteran or Norlinder-Reinbacher
Engstrom-Bisson
Sobolev

Dobes
Kaskisuo

When Cole Hutsons ready to join MTL we'll be in a position depth wise few will
With a skilled Dcore run on late 20 year olds with 22-26 year old D's coming in from NCAA/KHL/AHL
Thats not including whatever we draft from now til then that could effect change

Trades

MTL

Markström, Jacob ($3,000,000 retained)
2024 2nd round pick (CGY)

Additional Details:

MTL gets a True Tandem with Markstrom/Monty with Markstrom leaving the system with Monty as a true #1 just as Dobes in ready to come up. If Dobes develops faster we got Markstrom at 50% so we can RS and flip him with little to no effort avoiding another 3 goalie situation

CGY

Additional Details:

CGY gets a 25 Minute capable Dman with 46 pts and counting as well as a 22 year old top 4 LD prospect.

MTL

2026 4th round pick (EDM)

EDM

Primeau, Cayden
Ylönen, Jesse [RFA Rights]

MTL

EDM

Harvey-Pinard, Rafaël

Additional Details:

Waived and likely claimed
If not he will push Guindon out of the AHL and move Pitlick to the reserve as all the LW move down a line and RHP sits on top line.

Really ? is it because you hate Matheson or over value the return a goalie gets in the NHL the last 20 years ?
I can do the long process and sell Matheson and Harris giving you the return from it which would give you a return bigger then Voukouns or close
But i figured CGY was investing in the next generation of Goaltenders after selling off a lot of their D that played big minutes
So i figured you'd see value in adding Defense thats playing above his Contracts expected Production by a lot and a 22 year old LD

Or is it something else im overlooking
Feed back is always helpful
Trolling or Flaming , not so much

Hate Matheson? No he's just not that good. Worth maybe 2 3rds. Harris is maybe worth a mid to late 2nd but I'm not sure anyone will give you that for him.

Lets say for arguments sake that Harris is worth the high 2nd you have Calgary including in that trade (which he's not). In what world is Matheson worth Markstrom 50% retained for 2 years?

So its you dont like Matheson got it.
But you're right that 2nd wasnt suppose to be from CGY but to CGY
I ****ed that up when i was putting it together i guess and didnt notice
It was more or less for the RS and an upgrade on the 5th round pick i originally had in with Matheson and Harris with Markstrom with no RS

Balancing this one i went back and forth on but im seeing now i shoulda just did the leg work to trade Matheson and Harris separately then transfer that to CGY
Goalies Traditionally get futures anyways so it woulda stuck with that pattern but i was like "hey CGY needs D" and chose the easiest route.

Matheson is a liability at 5v5. I have nothing against him as a person he's just a powerplay specialist and if Calgary wanted that Tyson Barrie is free this summer.

The apparent ask from New Jersey for Markstrom was Mercer and a 1st. If you aren't even half way to that ballpark then you have to start over and try again
