<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Justafan79</b></div><div>Let's see 24 points 22 playoff games in the last 3 playoffs yeah that's a big F***ING liability there 🙄</div></div>

You know what is sad, the fact that you think 22 playoff games in 3 years is a good thing for a team with this much talent. The whole roster needs to be revamped and the culture needs to change if the Leafs want to be considered a cup contender and it all starts at the top with dumping Shannahan and his Shannaplan. After that Mathews is the next biggest issue, his me first attitude and p*** poor leadership isn't what the Leafs need to be a championship team. The roster needs an overhaul, building from the net out will allow for deeper runs. Getting a goalie like Saros is a great start, add a couple of bigger heavier D like Anderson and Parayko would do wonders for the team. Nylander, Tavares, Marner, Domi, Bertuzzi and Knies should be good enough to outscore the opposition if the D and G are improved. Adding another center like PLD, Lindholm or Lundell would also be needed as well.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I don't think that any of us used the phrase "any of the Habs top 3 forwards" unless it was in the context of responding and refuting the general concept of Josh Anderson.

GiggyWithGibby can speak for himself but before he does so, I'll say that I would be shocked if you could actually show me that he asked for an Eichel/Tkachuk type of return because he, specifically, was the Duck stalwart who came up with the "Reinbacher plus Montreal's 2025 second" formulation, which I vividly remember because I've always thought it was insufficient but have gone along with for team solidarity.</div></div>

Actually, I just reread the thread as to which I was referring and I misinterpreted the context of the Eichel comments, so I apologize to Giggywithgibby, that was my bad

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>I feel for you guys. These Habs fans don't stop. What's even worse it's the same ones everyday. It wouldn't be so ridiculous if it was new people that aren't active on here often, but it's active members doing it every single day.</div></div>

I don't know what you are yapping about, I haven't posted a Zegras trade in months and have actually agreed with the evaluation of OldNYfan's opinion on a fair trade. I also agree that Montreal and Anaheim aren't really good trade partners since both are in about the same spot in their rebuild and looking for similar peices (1 or 2 young top 6 forwards) and have the same pieces to trade (mostly LHD prospects and picks). What I said on this thread was meant more as a joke and because GeneralLandro called Barron a bleh RD. It's not that Barron is a bad RD he is just not as flashy as many other 2 way D men, he is more of a cautious calculated 2 way D man like Petry was for the Habs. I know that every Ducks fans want Reinbacher + 2nd or something similar to that (as they should) but valuewise Barron + a late 1st is the equivalent of that butthe Habs aren't going to be willing to give up that type of package unless it's for Carlsson not Zegras (which the Ducks wouldn't do either). I know everyone wants the sexyest package possible but that's just not gonna happen between two teams in the same situation. That's why this is such a hotly contested trade on both sides, everyone wants to win the trade instead of both sides breaking even (which teams in similar positions are gonna have to do, if a deal is to be made).

I am sorry to Ducks fans who mistook my earlier comment as being an entirely serious response it was all just in fun to lighten up the thread a bit.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>You're conflating several different statements we've made over the past three months, and just plain inventing some things, whether intentionally or not I don't know. Personally, I think that you've taken what we've consistently said and are mis-characterizing it in your own mind. We've always been very specific and never used the words "top forward" or "top RhD prospect." Specifically, we've listed three possible formulations for a Zegras trade: (1) Slavkovsky; (2) the Montreal first and a top forward prospect like Beck or Mesar; and (3) Reinbacher and your 2025 second. I don't ever recall any of us mentioning Suzuki (why in the world would we need a center?!?) or saying "the Jets first and a top 4 RhD prospect." What I recall MY saying was that we would take Reinbacher and the Jets first in response to this very proposal (Barron and the Jets pick). Finally, it's absolutely untrue than any of us have ever said we'd trade Zegras for Caufield.</div></div>

It was a joke, to lighten him up a bit, Barron isn't as bad as he seems to think he is, he is just still really young and raw.

Some have said "any of the Habs top 3 forwards" meaning Suzuki as well.

I think you should go back through your fellow Ducks fans comments, I know you have been consistently saying what you claim but Giggywithgibby thinks he is getting an Eichel or Tkachuk type of return (or better) and quite frankly Zegras isn't even remotely close to those players.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ht42</b></div><div>He can bounce-back with the Habs and become a 70-75pts player for few season. He plays also on the Canes PK and he's playing phisycal also.

Big difference between him and Drouin : Drouin haved all the presure on him to perform because Montreal offensive deep was bad.....</div></div>

LOL, he had 1 season at 70+ points, 1 season in his 5 year Career, he would have to have had 1 or 2 at less than 70 to "bounce back" he is a 55 point player on the 5th best team in the league, you seriously think he is going to put up 20 more points consistently on the 5th worst team? His 70 point season is an outlier just like Domi's not his norm, I wouldn't trade more than like the 15th ova pick and a 3rd for him, he isn't better than Dach or Newhook and isn't even close to being as good as Suzuki or Caufield. He is a middle 6 winger who averages 55 points a year and he is gonna be looking for north of 7 mil, Necas is going to be the Canes next KK, a seriously overpaid middle 6er.
