First off, as a Habs fan, I think including PHI 1st is overkill, and MTL obviously would accept this deal. However, this trade would put MTL in a huge hole on the 2nd pairing RD to compete NOW. Sure MTL has great prospect depth in that position (Juulsen would take that spot, but is still unproven with regard to playing in a top 4 role, and Fleury and Brook have zero NHL experience yet.) I know you already traded Gudas in another trade. but I think if you removed the 1st (or downgraded it to a lower pick) and put Gudas instead of the prospects. The trade would make a little more sense.
Petry + Shaw for Ghost + Gudas. MTL would have to add some draft picks on top of that 100%. but those 4 players as the central components. Age is fairly close between Shaw and Ghost, Petry and Gudas too.
