No thanks.

So... 2 late round 1sts and Jordan for PLD. Not horrible. Dvorak and Farrell don't help this much. The 2 1sts could end up being a steal.

in what world Farrell do not help?

Too much for PLD here! Way too much. Take out LAK 1st Farrell and swap fla pick for a 2024 top ten protected.

Actually a good PLD trade.

Why would LAK help you take Dubois out from under them?
They're suppose to be the ones heavily interested in a Sign and Trade with him


I'd rather trade down to ARZ and get Hayton or Mcbain for handing them Michkov.
They need it more and either Center would go a long ways in MTL's system
A Package around that helps both teams involved

Both are in a position to make an impact in MTL
They wont cost what PLD does either

I find it pretty hilarious, That a team with only $725,000 in cap space. Thinks they can weaponize their cap space.

No established value
Its like Ylonen or Richard
Good players but try to trade them for value.
There's 4-5 guys like this on every team and until they step up no one's interested in betting on a long shot.
Ylonen showed promise as did Richard but both need to follow it up

The pick belongs to PHI, LAK may not like it but nothing they can do about it. I fear a trade down to ARI would not really work. By virtue of being willing to trade the pick they know MTL probably isn't too keen to take Michkov so they can just wait and select him one pick later

The numbers are listed out for you up above

If MTL can trade Hoffman for nothing, why does WSH have to pay a 1st to trade Mantha?

Gee do you honestly think that the Caps are giving you a 2025 1st round pick? For a player who's likely to be boughout in Anthony Mantha, I don't think so. In none of these trades are you weaponizing your cap space. The whole idea of weaponizing your cap space. Is getting high end assets from capped strapped team and giving them garbage in return.

You probably dont get another 1st to move down 2 places. A mid 2nd probably though.

Myers idea isn't horrible for Van but I think they can move him almost entirely for a 3rd given his experience and minimal salary.

Don't hate that Myers trade

Terrible flyers trade

Habs need to give Philly something else decent for that trade to be fair.

Lmfao that Capitals trade is horrible. No explanation needed

plus 10.5 mil from price silly

Thats not good trades tbh

Hoffman you could get something, like a later draft pick or bit better with retation
Philly trade need something more, i made something like this : 5th + harris+ norlinder for 7th and 22th+Seeler
That's wayyyyyyy to much for PLD, it would be just dumb to trade that, i see something like either Fla pick or top 10 protected 2024 pick + adds
Wsh trade will never happened, why tf will the caps do that
Vancouver deal.. the least bad in my opinion but we could get more, and if we do that Eddy wont go to van tho doesn't make sens

2022 Detroit Red Wings 2022 1st round pick (8th overall), 2023 1st round pick (32nd overall), 2023 3rd round pick for 2022 1st round pick (6th overall)
2021 Columbus Blue Jackets 2021 1st round pick (5th overall), 2021 3rd round pick (70th overall), 2022 2nd round pick 2021 for 1st round pick (4th overall)
2020 Ottawa Senators 2020 1st round pick (5th overall), 2020 4th round pick (100th overall) for 2020 1st round pick (3rd overall)
2019 New York Islanders 2019 1st round pick (11th overall), 2019 2nd round pick (34th overall), 2020 2nd round pick (47th overall) for 2019 1st round pick (7th overall)
2018 Buffalo Sabres 2018 1st round pick (8th overall), 2018 2nd round pick (41st overall) for 2018 1st round pick (7th overall)

Its a mixed bag it seems.

The main concern is how goooood the draft is, you will need to overpay in that situation, but getting annother 1rst in the draft means that you will need to sent also annother thing, which i can see being a ld that mtl will not need like Harris

Jets would be lucky to get half of that in value in a trade. Jets are getting fleeced on the PLD trade. He wants Montreal and no one else. He only named other teams to drive up his price but none of those teams are trading for him for 9M. He would do a sign and trade to Montreal for less.

Obviously the PLD trade in this scenario complicates things, but I think 5 + 31 for 7 + 22 could make sense for both sides

Flyers decline and keep their picks

Depending on how the board falls, I wouldn't be opposed to this trade for PHI. Pick value is about fair, depends how PHI values the top-5 consensus vs. Leonard, Moore, etc.
