Would that be enough for Ehkolm

Created by: john_michael
Team: 2020-21 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 12, 2021
Published: Mar. 12, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Is that a good offer for Ehkolm? I think that would be my first offer for him, but perhaps MTL could add something else here. Ehkolm to MTL makes too much sense. Preds fan, let me know what you think.

It's a start, but I think they'd prefer a prospect over Chiarot.

Moving Ekholm means they're retooling.

I add Chiarot here cuz we need to move out salary (and ideally a LD to make room for Ehkolm) but Chiarot's value is very small here. I think we could add a prospect not named Kotkaniemi, Suzuki or Caufield, or a 2nd rd pick to that offer.

I think the value is good, as long as Poehling still has 2nd line potential

Mmm, not sure he still has such a potential. Likely 3rd line C I believe. Reason why I'm open for us (MTL) to add another prospect in there.

So assuming chiarot is a minor throw in for cap reasons as much as anything:

It comes down to Poehlings value. Not a Habs fan so I may be mistaken but he doesn't seem like a particularly great prospect at this point. So id say not enough. Maybe two prospects like him? Like him and Evans and the first?

I think NSH would want a different prospect, but I think he’s the right level of prospect. Maybe MTL can throw him in as a sweetener.

Poehling is good, not a bust, it's just that at some point we (or at least I) thought he could become 2nd line C, and as of today I believe he'll be more of a complementary piece on the bottom 6.
Not sure Evans could go, he's like the perfect 4C for us right now. But guys like Struble, Harris, Norlinder, Olofsson, Hillis, Luke Tuch, Charlie Lindgren, Ikonen, etc...

I'm just comparing to the Muzzin trade. A first and two good but not special prospects for a good #2-3 d with one more year term

A salary, a mid level prospect and a 2nd rd pick gets you Ekholm

I would think Lehkonen, 1st and one of Harris, Norlinder, Fairbrother, Ylonen probably gets it done.
