A way to get Laffy

Created by: math731
Team: 2019-20 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 3, 2020
Published: Feb. 3, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
MIN ends up with the 1OA and MTL with the 7-8OA. VGK is 12OA-14OA. EDM is 18OA-20OA. BOS is 24-26OA.

The trade : MIN gets a former first round pick with top 6 C potential and MIN native. At 7, they could get one of Lundell, Rossi, Askarov, Holtz or Perfetti. At 12, one of Holloway, Lapierre, Gunler or Zary will be there. And they're getting another great prospect at 25.
Trades

MTL
  1. Bouchard, Evan
  2. Gagner, Sam
  3. Manning, Brandon
  4. 2020 1st round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
TDL deal. EDM absolutely need O depth and skills to back up McD, Drai, RNH and Yam. There top 6 would look insane. They still have a solid blue line for the futur with Bear, Broberg (who can play RHD) and Samorukov. In other words, they certainly can sacrifize D for O.

Obviously VERY unlikely this happens, but that trade would be hard to turn down in this draft!

Id be asking for a different Habs player like Suzuki or Romanov.

The main goal of adding 3 first is to not add a guy like Suzuki, Romanov or KK... I wouldn't even make Suzuki and our first for the 1OA. The trade above is more than fair.

"fair" is whatever the 1st OA pick holder thinks it is.

Yes this is close, but it all depends on how they value Laf

I feel like MIN (rebuilding team) would most likely agreed on that trade in order to get a number one C (7th oa) and a solid C (Poehling). They need more prospects and a futur 1C instead of a premier LW

It'll be an unpopular opinion but if MN gets 1oa then they should just take Bayfield. For the first time in their franchise history they could get a young, high quality, future 1C.

Bro no one is gonna say no to laf no matter what the needs of the team are. Its laf. If any team knew they had the 1OA pick they would not trade it unless you offered them a generational player

There are 2 centers in the draft Bayfield and Lundell (a Stepan type of center). MN should take the quality of a top pick of the quantity that's offered in the trade.

Saying that there is no quality in this trade is laughable. If I'd offer Suzuki, Romanov, Caufield and KK for 1OA, would you do it. Absolutely. Suzuki was pick 13OA, Romanov was a second round pick, Caufield was a 15OA pick and KK a top 10 pick. I'm offering even more than that in the trade above.

I feel that a lot of the value in these trades are off. I can't imagine the Oilers giving up any value that high for Domi, especially the way Bouchard has played this year. Its also an overpayment by Vegas for Petry

I wouldn't touch it. MN needs a great player, not more "good but not great players". They don't need non-elite wings, they have those.
Caufield = Donato both have very flawed games.
Sazuki = Fiala
Romanov = Greenway
Then there is Boldy, Kaprizov, and Kunin all as wings too.
KK is the best part of the deal and he = JEE.

Lol, are you really comparing Suzuki to FIala and KK to JEE? Caufield to Donato will not look great in a few years. @MakingHistory @GMs @DriveFor25 @yanp007 @Habs4ever @Howyoudrouinnn @MTLaveragefan What you guys think about all those statements?

Caufield = Kaprizov
Suzuki > all your prospects reunite
Romanov > all your dman prospect reunite
Kotkaniemi was already better than EEK at 18 yo, KK will be a 1C or 2C EEK will always be a 4th liner

Agree with everything except maybe the Kaprizov-Caufield thing. But time will tell.

Broberg and Samorukov don't play RD
Tippett likes to keep his defenders on their natural side
Montreal needs LHD much more than RHD anyways
Broberg won't be in the NHL for probably 1-2 more years

This trade doesn't work for Edmonton. Puljujarvi + 1st maybe they'd go for, or something around Nurse, but not this package.

Well, If he is from MN, he doesn't play us often, and he is probably not as informed about our prospect as we are. Otherwise, these statements are simply wrong and a big miscalculation.

Not easy being a Wild's fan nowadays

Like someone said this is not happening but to play along, poehling to minn where he is from? Possible. Suzuki if healthy plays a 1000 games in the NHL. I told my son in November, before end of season he will be #2 centre.

Caufield is pure sniper. Excellent on PP but can he translate that to regular 5on5? KK is in Laval where he should be. Let him finish rest of the year and allow him to grow. The fact he made team at 18 shows how feeble that position was for team. Laffy is going to be a heck of a player. I hope he ends up far from Habs because he is going to hurt teams.
