Thread: Revamped forward core
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keep_ups12</b></div><div><a href="/users/Sebybbq" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Sebybbq</a> <a href="/users/MaxDomi13" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@MaxDomi13</a> would you do this trade?
Ryan Johansen hasn't even cracked more than 15 goals the past few seasons
and is on pace for 43 points. And guess what. He is getting paid 8mil</div></div>

Not a Habs fan, but they already have three top-6 centers and one other coming. If anything, they could trade one of Domi or Kotkaniemi. They have three top-6 wingers and they need another one. Domi played this season with Weal, which isn't great. I think that they only have two prospects on the wing. I'm pretty sure they'd prefer to keep Tatar than trade him for a not needed player. And then there is Juulsen, a prospect on a position (RHD) where their NHL players are above 30. If anything, both teams don't match well for a trade.

Thread: According to TVA Might Bergevin offer sheet Anthony Mantha
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KakkoForMauriceRichardAward</b></div><div>Dude dude dude dude dude...

TVA Spots is complete trash. They never get things right. Stop this.

They literally hired a few people that RDS wanted to get rid of because they were/still are complete garbage</div></div>

The wrong part of your comment is that I only can like once. But, in all fairness, the TVA dude didn't bring a rumor or any knowledge about Mantha. He just said what he thinks the Habs GM should/could do with a twitter poll asking Habs fans.

Thread: You might think Im crazy but
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyDangle</b></div><div>why you keep cherry picking 3 years. use this season.</div></div>

This season, Petry has the best Corsi For/Against ratio (CF%) in the entire NHL for defencemen who played over 300 minutes against elite competition and the 6th for Dangerous Fenwick For/Against ratio (DFF%). That means he dominates elite opponents during 5vs5. He is clearly an elite 5vs5 defenceman. But, he isn't a special teams specialist. That makes it interesting for the elite-not-elite discussion.

On another topic, he is clearly worth a first round pick+. Only two months ago, Carolina offered Jake Bean and a first for Petry, which was declined by Montréal. Good or bad decision from Bergevin, it's pointless. What's interesting is that at least one team is willing to give a first and a good prospect for him.

Thread: If Goaltending is an issue
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Fleury is an upgrade on Mete, and on Kulak. Romanov is the only one who causes a problem here. Skjei is better than Chiarot, Fleury is better than Chiarot. Fleury is also young enough to continue to develop. He's had an incredible season, and he's still getting better. Romonov can slot in as the 2LD by the time Skjei is coming up for a new contract, and it allows the Fleury brothers to play together. Fleury and Skjei are both long term cost controlled upgraded on what Montreal has to offer.</div></div>

I understand that you like your team. It's an exciting and young team. But do you sincerely think that Fleury is that much an upgrade over Mete and Chiarot right now? It's seem more like bad asset management to trade a high pick and a good prospect for a second pairing D and a good player they may/will loose during the expansion draft. Even more when they could use that pick for more urgent needs like a skilled winger and a top-6 powerforward. Even if Fleury and Skjei are that much of an upgrade over every Habs LD players and prospects, they still have many one that will fights for the same spots on the third and second pairing.

Thread: Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchMarnerElite </b></div><div>I agree that Domi is a great player with elite potential, but I think you are undervaluing the package Colorado is giving. Compher is a really good defensive Forward. Even though Zadorov is dirty, he’s still a very solid defenseman. Especially with Romanov coming up you’d have one of the best defensive cores in the league.</div></div>

Is Zadorov the player they need? He has a similar style (or role) as Chiarot and Romanov on the left side. Even Mete tends to play a safe and solid game. I think that they'd prefer a more attacking D. They already have depth at forward, but they need more high end skills. Domi provides somewhat that, in the Habs context. Plus, with the expansion draft next year, I'm not sure that it's a wise idea to bring more players to protect. In a vacuum, I think that the proposal is fair, but in their context, it doesn't help them much. Unless a team propose a young LHD with powerplay/attacking/puck moving abilities in a 1v1 trade, they should keep Domi.
