Deadline - Ekholm Trade and Caufield ELC

Created by: SlafCaufZuki
Team: 2020-21 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 17, 2021
Published: Feb. 17, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
The Ekholm trade would look like the Muzzin deal, but with an added roster player (to make the money work) and one of the prospects being replaced by a good and established young player. I think Ekholm is worth more, but I don’t think he will fetch his full value in a trade and that GMs probably value him similarity to Muzzin.

Huh? You're getting Ekholm and a first for a cap dump, a 6th/7th D and a decent prospect?

Firstly, forgot to include the first round pick. I misclicked and put it on the wrong side. Secondly, Mete is criminally underrated in Montreal imo. He’s pretty good and he’s young.

Yeah this wont interest Nashville.

An Ekholm to Montreal trade would probably be something like
- 2020 1st
- 1 of Struble/Harris/Norlinder
- Mete/Kulak

Yeah I think he should fetch more but I feel like he won’t get what he’s really worth. If I were to make an offer myself I’d replace Olofsson with Struble or Poehling.

You are probably looking at a package almost identical to what LA got for Muzzin
