Description
From a no name twitter account that apparently has sources (they prob dont)

They only say Eddy and Drouin are going to EDM and judging Hughes value for his players and cap implications, i think this is how it would look if true

Doubt Drouin unless they are sending a contract other than Pulju back and those they might send back have term which I'd rather Montreal avoided.

I could see Hughes potentially going after Bouchard. We have a good amount of picks, and now could be the time to take a chance on a young RHD.

MTL would retain on Drouin, not on Eddy

If they can pull something like this off though I'd be happily surprised

You do realize that even with retention, Drouin is a negative asset. Edmundson is a little higher value than Pool party and no value for Rodrigue. So, out of both scenarios, the first should go to EDM instead of Montreal

That would be true if the market resolved around your value of players but thankfully it does not. The market sets the value and the market is setting Eddy at a minimum of a 1st round pick

You do realize that Drouin is a UFA this summer and the Habs are tanking. They dont need to shed his salary. If Drouin goes anywhere, its because the other team asked for him which means hes not a negative asset

And with what example does a soft, lacks offensive touch and get blocked shots because he isn't fast enough to get out of the way defensemen are you referring to?

Then keep him and stop trying to get other teams to take him on then. I feel this is Habs fans at least trying to get a little bit of value for Sergachev at this point

Drouin is not good lmao removing his 5.5M cap hit this summer is enough value for this team

Then why is it in all Habs ACGM, they are packing Drouin and someone for a first? If his value at 5.5 is good enough for the team, then keep him
