we probably wouldn't do it. Mailloux and Ylonen for Holtz and Bahl is the best i would offer. Just hope Mailloux isn't going to turn out like a Sergachev 2.0 after the trade..

Because of his past or just his overall play? Because if you're talking about his game, you are really wrong. He's extremely talented and killing it in Laval playing 1st pair minutes.

Both.

Devils have no need for a guy who slots in behind Nemec Marino Hamilton and Casey in the system.

Devils also want nothing to do with that PR. It's quiet(ish) now when he's in the AHL and nobody is watching. The second he gets traded its back in the headlines

And even if either of those things werent true. Bahl provides more value to NJD than Mailloux because he's NHL ready now.

lmao like we are the ones adding on the dach trade😂💀

forget guhle. not trading him and you would need to add a LOT more than this..

We're giving you Monty and we are also adding a 1st💀💀💀 Bro what are these offers.

Holtz + 1st for Slafkovsky? Hell nah man what the hell.

Holtz for Matheson AND A 1ST?? This Gotta be the worst one. Matheson should be getting us 2 firsts with the way he's playing. And yet we are adding a 1st again..

Holtz for our top 7 Pick this year? Bro...

I’d ask for Guhle and add nothing. I’d pass on rest of these guys.

Dach just tore his knee up. His career high in 5v5 points just got passed by Holtz in 40 games at 10 minutes a night, and Holtz has significantly more control at a cheaper price.

Guhle probably fetches 2 1sts or so. or Holtz+2nd in equivalent value.

Montembault is probably worth just shy of a 1st. (hence why he got just 3 mill AAV).

Matheson is not getting 2 1sts. His metrics aren't particularly great. If by how he's playing you mean "clearly showing he cannot handle a top pairing role" sure. I have him valued same as Monty at approximately 1 1st.

I wouldn't trade Slaf either if I was MTL, but if you're low on him that's the offer.

If you want to take the gamble take the gamble. If not move on.

And remember that Holtz has more 5v5 goals and points than every single hab by a fairly wide margin despite getting bottom 6 ice time

Most of them I wouldn't do either but just approximate valuations off the dome

Would do
Pass
Pass
Would do (only if the rumours about the goalie market being heavily inflated are true)
Would do (depending on where Montreal is at time of trade)
Would do (I like Slaf)
Pass

If the Devils were to trade Holtz it would be for good young player with term/control. I’d guess LHD on ELC that is upgrade on Kevin Bahl. So Guhle would be most obvious name. I don’t think picks would be return ask.

Because there would be no asking price, you wouldnt even have a chance to utter his name before we hung up on you

Man, with such a star studded roster, MTL must be a lock for the cup finals this year, let's go check the standings, oh look, they're 6th!........ from the bottom. Next you're going to say Wifi is worth a first.

That’s a stretch, in my view. But if we called on Dach, you’d be free to ask for whomever you’d like.

Guhle would be my ask if Habs wanted Holtz.

And yet Dach's career high in 5v5 points is 19, Holtz is at 20 halfway through the season (again more than anyone on the Habs btw). And now he's coming off a torn ACL and MCL.

Holtz is also younger, with 2 extra years of ELC and then 4 years of RFA compared to Dach who has 2 years of 3.4 mill and then 1 year of RFA.

If you think dach's value increased because he got a bunch of PP1 time, still didn't reach 20 points 5v5, and then tore his ACL and MCL, I don't know what to tell you. It's gone down, not up
