Thread: Strome to Habs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vosse9</b></div><div>Didn’t want to get too aggressive with the deal. Could take Lias out or maybe change the second pick to another 2nd rounder</div></div>

You didn't want to get aggressive with the trade and decided to ask for Montreal's 2nd Best RW and LD prospect who are basically in their top 5 for prospects (Norlinder is 5 Ylonen is 6 that's if you don't count Suzuki or KK but do include Poehling) not to mention that making this trade leaves Montreal with only Caufield and Teasdale (whose naturally a Centre) as our only NHL calibre Wing Prospects, Montreal has an overabundance of Centres and Strome has had his numbers boosted by Panarin.

TL;DR
You asked for 2 top 10 prospects in Montreal's System and 2 picks for 2 Players Montreal has no need for.

Thread: Who is the best goal scorer in the NHL
First off, I only count 3 of these players as <strong>Natural Goal Scorers</strong> which to me means they consistently have more goals than assists. Those three are Ovechkin, Matthews, and Aho and to me, the order goes:
1. Ovechkin because of his stretch between January 7th and February 8th where he had 6 multi-goal games 3 of which were hat-tricks one single goal game and 4 goalless games totalling 16 goals in 32 days which includes his teams week break and the All-star suspension.
2. Matthews because as a biased Habs Fan I can't put him first although even with removing my bias Ovi's better but as a hockey fan I know he's better than Aho
3. Aho in the future I could see him potentially passing Matthews or maybe Matthews becomes more all-around and is no longer just a Goal Scorer but as of now nope.

Thread: What are the values of domi or Gallagher
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>So much wrong with this... I won't waste too much time on it, but I'll give you this: Bear and Jones are playing top-4 in Edmonton, they aren't "prospects." Bear has been playing 1RHD since the 2nd game of the season, he's not going anywhere.

Gallagher is a 2nd line player, he's 27 and has 1 year left on his contract. He's not going to return a 1st + a second line player + Yamamoto (a more valuable second line player than Gallagher) or Lavoie.

I don't know what you're smoking, but whatever it is, I'm seriously concerned for your health.</div></div>

I'm not smoking anything just don't follow Edmonton at all so I looked at a prospect list for Edmonton from before the season started so I didn't know how they were progressing so that's on me.

But...

Gallagher definitely is not just a second line player he is part of one of the more effective lines in hockey, he's in his prime and is on one of the best contracts in the League. Also as there is literally no interest to trade Gallagher you would have to offer a package that Montreal actually cant refuse.

Thread: Tatar Real Talk
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BlastnyFromThePastny</b></div><div>Yeah that's fair. I like that you've cleared that up. And I am fine accepting that Gallagher won't go to Colorado. A Timmins trade is likely more of an off-season trade if anything. I think most GMs will fill in the TDL inflation rate with draft picks more so than prospects unless it's a Tyler Madden situation and the team can afford it. This is Colorado's first year being seen as a contender so I don't think there's an urgency to drop any of their perceived top prospects this TDL.</div></div>

Yeah I've unfortunately learned the importance of clarifying yourself in text multiple times so I always try to do that and I'm perfectly fine with an offseason trade I was only curious of what it would take to pry a decent RD prospect for us

Thread: Tatar Real Talk
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BlastnyFromThePastny</b></div><div>I mean it's always fun to play with the idea of reuniting Drouin and Mack. We have Newhook + all those centres listed in the trade so we're not hurting for one. Especially since I think the Avs are trying to time Newhook's development with Kadri's contract.

The only player for me that would make me put almost all the prospects on the table (minus Byram) would be Gallagher. If we lost Timmins in a Gallagher trade, I could be happy with that. If we lost Timmins in a Gallagher+Tatar trade it wouldn't even hurt me. I just don't know exactly what that would look like. And I know MTL fans would hate to lose him, but that's why I'd love to have him and re-sign him.</div></div>

We seem to have hit an impasse as the only way I'd not be disappointed losing Gally if someone from your top-line Makar or Byram was in the return don't get me wrong I'm not saying that Gallagher is as good as them or has that high of trade value just restating just how much some habs fans would hate to lose him.

But in terms of Timmins if adding one of our better LD prospects not named Romanov need to be sold it might hurt but id be willing to part with Struble or Fairbrother if it could bring us our potential next 1st pair RD
