Quoting: Stan_Bowman
Even if you say you wouldn’t do it, could you tell me where it goes wrong? Try to put away the player bias for a minute.
Sure. Nic Beaudin & Ryan Poehling is a positional shift between two prospects of equal value. I don't mind that.
The next part of the trade is Suzuki for Gus.
Suzuki 20 years old, future #1 or #2C, current fringe 2-to-3 C. He's on his first NHL season, meaning that most likely, he can only head upwards. His value is a 1st pick +
Gus is 27 years old, future offensive 1st pairing, current 2nd pairing. He's done some great stuff in one season, but consistency is still a question mark. His value is repeatedly quoted around 2nd + 3rd pick.
Nylander is a high-risk move, as a change of scenery hasn't helped him much. I personally have low interest in him altogether, so there's personal bias there.
Value wise, I think you're noticeably off, but not be a terribly insulting amount. It's also a situational misunderstanding issue. If the Habs are to trade Suzuki, it's to get something certain & long-term. On the flip side, Gus is likely not in the long-term horizon of CHI.
Habs would much prefer to pay 2nd + 3rd, or even 2nd + 2nd for Gus, given their context. Asking for an untouchable in Suzuki is heresy.
