Neither Arizona trade makes sense,
Keller is more valuable than a 2 1st rounders, I'd argue he has the same or more value than Suzuki
Yes Arizona has taken a lot of dead money like Weber for cheap but Price is owed 15mil total for 2yrs and Weber was 6mil total for the 4yrs Arizona took him, even with insurance it's not cheap

I agree with your Keller assessment...him and Suzuki are close but Keller has a better offensive track record. That said, I can also see Keller moving - despite being young(ish) there is no way Arizona will be competitive by the time their prospects hit. Montreal is in a slightly better spot than Arizona and will be looking to push this summer...as for the Price contract, Voracek and Little combined is more than Price will be due. I expect Arizona will be looking to replace a similar amount - especially with the cap (and floor) going up.

I don't think Montreal needs to trade a young defenceman like Struble to get a 33 year old veteran defenceman that happens to be right handed. If they wanted to get a veteran defenceman to play the right side then they should go the free agency route. This year the following similar type of defenemen are available:
Tyler Myers
Dylan DeMelo
Ilya Lybushkin
Alex Carrier
Colin MIller
Jani Hakanpaa
Troy Stecher
Robert Vortuzzo
Chad Ruhwedel
etc.

No need to give up a young player like Struble for a player that you can get in free agency (for perhaps less than $4M per year as well).

I don't see why the Caps wouldn't accept. I like Struble a lot

My thought process is the following in relation to the players above: Ideally the Habs would find a RHD on a 2 year deal (Savard expiring so would give us one veteran D on the right side in 2025-26). Also it would be best to have someone who can fill in in a 3/4 role assuming only one of Reinbacher and Mailloux are able to fill in the other top 4 right side role.

Tyler Myers - an option but likely Vancouver resign him per recent reports
Dylan DeMelo - good option
Ilya Lybushkin - bottom pair at best
Alex Carrier - good option if you can keep it to 2-3 years at a reasonable cost
Colin MIller - bottom pair and no open role on a PP
Jani Hakanpaa - Dallas fans hate this guy
Troy Stecher - 6/7 but could be a stopgap for a year
Robert Vortuzzo - bottom pair
Chad Ruhwedel - bottom pair

I like the idea of moving a LD to clear a space for RD short term. With Matheson, Guhle, Xhekaj, Harris (and Hutson, Engstrom potentially coming in the next 2 years) this seems like an area of strength even if Hutson and Engstrom don't hit). If you can find a Jensen type without moving out Struble, I'm with you. I really like Struble's game. With what they have on the left side i think he could be the odd man out (only because Harris is a bit more versatile and can play the right side reasonably effectively).

AZ is dealing keller for futures - only way see he moves is for top 6C or top pair

AZ isnt near the floor and not taking on price (or any LTIR)
