Canucks pass Huge over pay on Sanheim, slight overpay on Edmundson

edmunster start with a 1st and your best prospect!

He hasn't gained any value in MTL, last time was traded was for a 5th can't see him getting anything more then a 2nd

Disagree giving cap the other way makes the price more

Habs will expect to trade him for a package similar to the one they got for Chiarot. Honestly we love him, just gave him an 'A'. He's not going anywhere unless doing it will help the team and a 2nd and 3rd without cap retention would not be enough.

No way the Habs use one of their retention slots for 2 years on this deal. We need those to trade Drouin, Dadonov, and Monahan at the TDL.

Ah the typical "this player is good enough to fix my team" + " the same player isn't that good and he isn't worth anything".

Much cognitive dissonance

he is an estanlished top pair d-man, you have to pay. It's typical from leafs fan to be off the chart ... :P !

Poster is Leaf's fan FWIW. Eddy was great when we eliminated the Leafs in 2020-21 playoffs don't you think?

A top pair dman. You are joking, right?

He's as good as Chiarot, however you see Chiarot.

Trading an entire years worth of picks plus Rathbone and Dermott for one year of Sanheim and two of Edmundson doesn't seem wise. Especially as that 2024 1st could be an early 1st.

His signing rights were traded for a 5th. The player who is signed to a contract is worth much more

How dare you try to apply logic in an ACGM debate. This is all about wild claims and gut feelings dammit!

"Used-car-salesman-itis" ........ endless contradictions to get themselves the best deal lol

Eyes closed, Head first, Can't lose!!!!

I don't think Chiarot is the best comp for Edmundson - for all the slings and arrows you can throw at Chiarot, he was skating top-pair minute (23:34 TOI when he was traded), was on his usual 20-25 points pace, and was an all-situations player, getting time on the PP2 unit and PK1. Basically the kind of player who would be a top 4 on any team in the league, and top pair on a good amount of them, even if you didn't love his metrics or think that Florida overpaid for him.

Edmundson averaged 19:35 TOI in his 24 games, which put him 5th amongst D on last year's Habs. He gets no powerplay time because that's not really part of his game, but will be a top PK guy. He's hit 20 points once in 7 seasons in the NHL, so his offensive game is less than what Chiarot brought to the table. The only advantages I would give him are that he has an extra year of term compared to what Chiarot had, but that's not going to be as valuable if the Canadiens aren't retaining and ship him out at his full 2x$3.5M.

I think if you wanted to move him, you can maybe push for changing Dermott to a prospect like Jack Rathbone, but I don't think you're going to the Chiarot package right now - especially considering he's coming off a season where he missed 58 games with a back injury. It's not quite a red flag, but backs love getting reinjured, so I'd put it at least as a yellow flag on any Edmundson trade I would be making.

Flyers can probably get better value for Sanheim elsewhere

A first with top 4 upside dman isn't enough for you. Come on. Anyway, Canucks decline

Why would it be? That's a worse offer than Lindholm got and Sanheim is much better than Lindholm

Crazy how your solution to our defense is by adding 2 older LHD which we already have too many of. How about improving the right side while not completely destroying our prospect pool even further?
