Thread: overpay for Brady
Im a die hard habs fan and you couldn't be as far as an overpay right here.

- Josh Anderson has negative value.
- Since drafted Filip Mesar did not show any real progress worth trading for. IMO he lost initial value (I would not trade a 1st round pick between 25 and 32 for him). He's a fine project but best case scenario he's worth a late 1st round pick/ early 2nd or another "project".
- 5th overall is a really great asset but the chances Ottawa can pick up a player just as good as Brady or even slighty worse are very very slim.
- I dont have much to say about Mailloux because I really do think he will be a good NHL Dman.

Even when you add it all up, what do Ottawa really get out of this for trading one of the rarest pure powerfoward in the NHL?

If we want him without giving any core pieces, it has to be a huuuuuuuge overpay. Something like :

5th overall 2024
MTL 2025 pick (easily top 15)
Kaiden Guhle

Even this I can see Ottawa hang up.

You cant accept giving up that much, I get it, its a steep price but you wont get a 25 years old top 10 LW without bleeding a lot.

Thread: Petry read description you lazy ass
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ste_Catherine_Street</b></div><div>I think Marchment is a risk at that cap &amp; term. I think his 1 good szn 2 yrs ago may have been a one-off, which makes this hella risky.
Imagine next szn we have Armia, Gallagher and this guy not earning their pay. Too much risk no tx</div></div>

He did just had a good season without live up to the one he had in Florida. I also watched the stars in playoffs and he was so usefull even if the production was meeeh. I get that he's not a sure thing but he's far from Gallagher and Armia production vs contract wise. I feel he could thrive being the complement of Zuke and Caufield, he have what the other two miss in their game, kind of like Anderson but with more IQ.

Thread: Petry read description you lazy ass
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>Marchment isn't worth his contract. With Petry's retained salary on top, that's too much money for a player who haven't proved he can contribute on a regular basis.

The 2nd and the prospect are going the wrong way.</div></div>

I get why you analyze it that way. IMO, he's a .5PPG defensivly well rounded player with size. 4.5M is a little high I can give it to you but not by a large margin, especially if the cap continue to go up.

I added from MTL side because I dont think Jim Neil would consider a 1v1 swap even with retention.

I know you reading a lot of comments from this blog, you're never delusional and sometimes even severe so my proposal + your insight makes me think Im at least on too something that could happen haha!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CoachCoach</b></div><div>As the team is currently constructed, the Wings are projected anywhere from 7th up to 5th in the Atlantic. Adding Petry doesn’t change that. They could have a NJD come from nowhere season, but I wouldn’t call it likely or probable.

Prior to Holl and Ghost signings there was a possibility, but now there is no room. This season will most likely be the last before some of the kids are regulars, and Ghost is the Wing mercenary that hopefully does well on the PP and gets dealt at the deadline.

Johansson and Wallinder both could get some time as they do play the right side (WW frequently) after the deadline, and going in to next year Petry would just block the youth movement.</div></div>

That's good insight. I stand by my opinion that Petry at 2.3ishM AAV could fetch a 2nd tho. Maybe not with the wings but somewhere else with a good 20 something games into the season.
