I've said it recently, I don't know why Habs fans want to cut bait with Dvorak so soon after giving up a 1st & 2nd for him. When he's healthy this year his production is in line with what he was doing in Arizona (~0.5/PPG).

I understand the desire to move on from some of Marc Bergevin's guys, but you'd be selling him at a huge loss in this case - you'd basically have a turned a late 1st, 2024 2nd, an early 3rd, and somewhere between $1.5-2M for the next 3 years into Nils Lundkvist. Lundkvist is good, but I'm pretty sure any Rangers fan would agree he isn't worth *that* much.

Pass on Dvorak, even retained. We are not wasting any cap or important spot on him, especially for valuable assets.

I know you're not asking a lot on the Pens trade. But PIT has no need for yet another LD. They got 5 of them on the team.

Subban and a 1st dont go together fyi

Sure, but neither does Chiarot and a first. The point is there are tons of defensemen on the market, the prices will be lower than they have been in previous years.

Chiarot and a 1st is a lot more likely, just look at the reports yourself.
