Habs pass easily. They’re not giving up their shot at a stud forward for some late firsts and a number 1 d man who doesn’t fit their timeline and is a UFA next year.

The Habs trade won't happen, but the NJD might. The bigger issue imo is that Bunting will just get paid more than that, and Newhook is still a better option at 2C than Sharangovich.

Habs decline

I didn't really care for eller, he didn't look like a smooth transition to me for the time he played. I think sharangovich is good but if you get him there's no need for e-rod, they're pretty similar i'd rather see somone else in the 3W if you make the trade.

That’s why i did it, Avs the past few years have had injury issues to have 3 players with similar skill if 1 goes down it’s easy to replace and it’s 3 solid middle 6 players

Could always flip him to the Jets for PLD and their 1st round pick you gain just as much as an asset without losing what you currently have.

A top 5 pick for a guy 1 year away from free agency? you are not even close.
