And yes. I know Bryon is injured. Imagine I said this was a deadline deal if it makes you happier.

all u habs fans continue to over value patches. He os 30 and slipped to 17 goals last year while Skinner is 26 and scored 24. That Buff trade pretty much sets the bar for what u can expect as a return.

One time in 6 years he didn’t score 30 plus. One of the top goal scorers in the league and defensively Miles ahead of Skinner. Canes let themselves get robbed because Skinner made full use of NTC. He’ll get more than Skinner.

Except this is and underpayment. Look at what Kane and Nash got for returns and as it stands currently, Kane is only one year younger than Patches. Everyone who keeps saying he lost his scoring touch because of one bad year needs to get their head checked considering the shape Montreal was in this past year.

Boy, do you know how to spell?

Every word you just said was wrong

Patch is 29
6 years of 30+ goal scoring and on decent 17!

He is an elite goal scorer

Skinner is just a good solid 2nd line winger

Plus look at his team! He played with Danault and shaw!

So one team makes a trade doesn't mean another team with a similar player is going to be traded like that to! If so trade Burns for Jones because MTL was stupid enough to trade a young dman for an older declining dman (PK - Weber)

If Byron’s in the mix, I think that pick has to be a first rounder because I think Pac can get you that return himself. Other than that, great value on the trade !
