Thread: Habs 2023-24 projection
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rooney</b></div><div>The Habs do not have all the leverage though. "Why would they risk trading for him in the risk of him leaving after?" Sir...let me introduce you to the Trade Deadline where teams pay to have players who have no intentions of re-signing. The Jets could get a much better return for Dubois as a pure rental to a playoff team at the deadline. The MTL has all the leverage narrative just doesn't make sense.</div></div>

Sure they may not have "all" the leverage but still the return ain't gonna be what everyone expect if he's free in a year. It'll obviously won't be fair market value. Sure the value of Anderson is very debatable, but I'd bet if the habs put Anderson on the market a whole bunch of teams will be calling and they could probably get a first out of it. The Jets ain't really looking at first round pick or prospect they said it themself they want to do a quick turnaround with the core they have. And I do believe he would be a player they'd like to add. Maybe they could add something better extra idk. What woud you ask for them?

Thread: MTL retool and lottery luck
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyDangle</b></div><div>price hasn't been a top goalie in a couple years. on top of that there is both on-ice and off-ice issues. even with half retention his contract is still bad. don't see edm being interested unless someone like keith is going the other way.</div></div>

Off course this trade could only work with a well known physically and mentally healthy Price. Let's say and end up playing for Canada at the Olympics and plays very well that will raise his value by a lot. But we can't know that yet we'll see in march where he's at. I'm only assuming he will be healthy and at his true form. But Price's stats IMO are a bit skewed due to MTL defense being very poor the last few years. I do believe he's still one of the top goaltender in this league but that's a completly different argument. I know long term his contract will not look great but EDM wants to win right now and I think they'd be willing to take a sacrifice to win in the very short term. The bigger issue for me it's more of how they can make that trade financially.

Thread: MTL retool and lottery luck
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyDangle</b></div><div>$8m is still way too much. edm would be better off just flipping a 3rd for allen.</div></div>

They could but the thing is they want an upgrade in goal and Allen isn't it. And there's not a ton of very good goalies available in the market right now. The rarety of top goalies can raise Price's value. I mean I put 8M but it could be 7M or less, they'll only have to figure out how they can make that trade work. Wether is taking a long-term EDM player back or wathever. But, my point is Price definitely will have a high trade value with a more reasonable cap hit for a team that wants an upgrade in net and go far into the playoffs. I just think EDM would be the best trade partner but that's just my opinion.
