Thread: My take on Danault and what the Habs might do
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Blazingbat11</b></div><div>Please carefully read description then...

I literally wrote that what I'm suggesting would be at the trade deadline, so teams acquiring him would in fact be giving up late 1st's. I also wrote that the comparables I chose were of Centers traded at the trade deadline, and that Danault should be somewhere in between Hayes and Duchene (so a better return than Hayes, but less than Duchene)...

and calling him a Selke candidate is realistic because he literally finished 7th in Selke votes <strong>2 seasons ago</strong>, and it won't surprise anyone when we find out that he'll have finished higher this year.</div></div>

The 2nd first rounder in the Duchene trade was conditional on him re-signing. The only way MTL gets a single 1st for Danault is if its conditional on his re-signing as well. I could also argue that the Rangers got more out of Hayes than the Sens did for Duchene as picks aside Lemeuix was the best young player to change teams in either of the deals.

Thread: Value of Evgeny Kuznetsov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheFlamingC</b></div><div>AS an opinion based on actual hockey value. Alex Kerfoot is a reasonable comparison based on his numbers. I didn't pay a lot of attention to him this year so I can't say for the eye test. He's around a 33 or 34 point scorer which is more than Bennett but doesn't bring the same grit. Judging by his PIMs he doesn't look soft though. Those could just be dumb penalties however. I think that to actually acquire him it would take Hyman straight up. I know he is better but it would take an overpay in a trade to acquire him. I think that if you are going to get Bennett your best bet is as including him as a piece in blockbuster deal. That's the only way I see a reasonable (not overpayment) trade for him getting accepted. I'd prefer to add picks instead of him but I think that if it was a good deal and there was no way out of getting rid of him then it could happen.</div></div>

That would be a horrible trade or Toronto. Kerfoot is a significantly better player.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheFlamingC</b></div><div>What about in a Gaudreau based deal</div></div>

Thats worse as it hurts their center depth and they're already deep on the wings. Probably the same thing. Gaudreau+Valamaki+First+ center prospect

Washington just has zero reason to trade Kuznetsov so you would really have to blow their socks off.
