Quoting: In_it_to_winnik
Still don't see Petry getting any value back. 34 years old with 3 more years at 6.25. Is all but guaranteed to end badly. Defenseman dont continue to be good through their mid/late 30s (obviously a few exceptions). 7 games or whatever with Martin St Louis does not inspire confidence. If they can get rid of his deal without taking an anchor back or retaining salary back it will be a win imo.
Rangers deal is probably right. Might as well sell high on him as they should have with armia last season. Will suck to loose him. I remember when he scored 18 goals that one year and everyone thought he was going to be a legit top 6 guy. Still, he is one of the best defensive forwards in the league which is perfect for the Rangers as they can't defend for ****. Basically just Igor and hope for the best lol.
I'm terrified to see what Chariot gets. Always thought he was an alright 3rd pair guy, but he is EXTREMELY overvalued. Eould not be surprised if a team like the blues pay the price, but the 1st+ will definitely be what they will get.
Nobody will touch drouin until he gets some time playing hockey again. Needs to get back on track. If he puts it together again, he will be great value for Montreal
Oliers trade is whatever, feels like they will target Holtby instead
Lots of potential for montreal this deadline. I do have a bad feeling that Jordan Harris will pull a fox and go to the bruins to be a stud somehow lol.

This Petry trade wouldn’t happen till the end of the season and would be contingent on him continuing this level of play throughout the rest of the season.
Yeah I remember the playoffs his rookie year where they were so desperate for a 1C they played him there. Gonna miss yelling “good stick lehky!”
Some team will pay up for Chiarot. Off the top of my head I can’t think of that many big-name left d’s on the market, (lindholm, giordana, Chiarot) so I have a good feeling some team will get desperate enough and pay up.
The pick involved in the Drouin trade would be heavily conditioned based on the amount of games he’d play next season. But yeah it’d be nice if he could come back this season and jump on the MSL train to boost his value a bit.
Oilers were just the first team that came to mind when thinking about a Jake Allen trade. Could go anywhere.
I dunno I’m starting to gain confidence about Harris. He plays hockey with Hughes’ and St. Louis’ kids so he knows them very well. And Hughes seems confident about that as well so I believe in him. Gonna be a really fun month I can’t wait to start seeing this team take shape.
