If that's all the habs would get for Drouin then the trade would be pointless. Just hold on to him and hope he improves.

It's a pretty good return, an early second and a solid prospect

I think Zucker is better than Rakell. Contract brings it down a bit, but this pick holds much more value than it did initially.

How does Rakell pick up so much more than Drouin? If anything it would be 1 for 1.

I mean PIT is going to retain this pick back. It'll be 2021 1st which is likely lower in terms value than it was before since 2021 draft is projected to be a weaker one.

Sure, might be ok if Axel improves a ton and if they draft the right player. But honestly what are the odds of both those happening? If it's fair that's fine but it would be essentially pointless trading Drouin when his stock is low because this is all you get.

Add Donato to the MTL trade

i watch Andersson live in Moncton so i know he's good but its Barberio level maybe better.
I've watched NHL D from Yandle ,Oduya ,Andy Mac,Demers ,Beauchermin and Barberio to Savard ,Andersson,Spence,Mcisaac and the late luc Bourdon.
Each D has their own style but Mcisaac mimics Yandle while Andersson mimics Barberio IMO.
The rest arent really compariable outside they're all Wildcats D they play different styles

Add Donato who's a good middle 6 forward option for MTL's 2nd line with Domi then this deal becomes worth MTL's time .
no reason to sell on Drouin yet as he's lead our PP since he's arrived if nothing else .
Given how bad our PP is as far as offensive scoring we're not gonna give him away until he stops producing


Donato (use today)
Andersson(use tomorrow)
2nd in 2021 (use for Future)

thats worth Drouin to MTL

Maybe for you, I rather keep Drouin then having another Juulsen/Fleury/Brook

Maybe

Rakell in 282 games scored 205 points for 72% production rate
Drouin in 258 games scored 167 points for 65% production rate

Rakell had success when ANA had the top D core in the West as well as the deepest and best Faceoff Centers and Tandem of Anderson and Gibson .
Then he signed a big deal and since his production and time on ice dropped off .

Drouin played on a good team 1 season due to Stamkos Injury playing so well he was traded for a Legit top LD prospect just taken in the top 10 draft that year. Since coming to MTL a rebuilding team he's lead the PP every year . Drouins done well in a rebuilding team like MTL with a completly different forward group then he joined in 2017-18

Honestly Drouins younger and a good 3rd line player who can play Special Teams similar to Kessel
Rakell is a 3rd line 27 year old with declining play and numbers proving more and more he was a product of a successful system but when called upon to lead could handle the load.


Its not like we are talking about Sam Steele or Nick Suzuki
We're talking about a couple guys who both team though could be top line players legit in their own rights who failed to live up to expectations.
We're talking 2 guys who both need to go to contenders where they can be 3rd line regulars and win a cup .

Rakell makes sense for EDM's needs given his cap and the fact that Kassian is playing to wing for EDM most of the past 2 years he'll address their needs . Drouin makes the most sense on on a couple teams but i think CBJ makes the most sense given their PP issues but if we're talking legit Contender i'd say WSH or NSH make the most sense with NYR also making sense as an added boost to their already lethal PP with Panarin and Zabinjeb
