The thompson deal wouldnt be this offseason most likely if this was even a possibility.
Buffalo gets a needed Rhd whos young and thriving in the khl and is already a captian
A interesting prospect in farrell who can play in the top 9 or be traded for another package.
2 1rst and a 2nd most analysis say mtl are still a bottom 10 team so this is fair value.

Thompson is the perfect developed center rw who mtl needs to compete and be dominant.
Buffalo is already stacked with young center prospects and cozens developing so thompson is older and can be moved.

At this point im trynna convince the opposing fan base hes able to be moved.
I just wanna know the price.
Mtl can optain him with being able to move all the guys in ltir for some pieces.

Now i ask is this team able to compete with the young future we have??

Id leave next years first of cgy who might be worse then mtl available for mtl as its unprotected and hagens mckenna mcqueen are very very hiy prospects mtl should be valuing.

For the future id look our for a top 6 rw and top 4 shutdown rhd in trades or drafts

Also if thompson isn’t available for that or period thats alot of draft capital and some good prospects to find a equal or better player in the future (hopefully)

Lmk what yall think…
