Yeah, because with only those two stiffs McDavid and Draisaitl in the middle, what Edmonton REALLY needs is a first-class center.

I'll ignore the trades in terms of value but if RNH is buried on the 3rd, he might as well be the C or traded (or don't get Mantha). Also, Eichel on line 1 with McDavid and Draisaitl on 2C makes more sense since he's the strongest of the 3 in the circle, and Eichel and McDavid can just take draws based on who is strong at said location of the ice. Hyman is much better to keep around since he's a hard-nosed type player that elevates the games of superstars while Drouin is a struggling sniper, and you won't need him around with Draisaitl, Eichel, Kane, and McDavid around.

Lol habs do not want Lavoie, he’s a bust 100%. I watched him 12x in Halifax and knew from his draft year he was a bust.

what happens if we Wait Two Minutes

I think the Habs would accept this.

mantha is around equal to hyman imo so the caps stick with the guy with the better contract and pass on this one.
