Thread: If only we did things a little differently in the past
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NoWah49</b></div><div>yeah this team is crazy and (kind've?) realistic. I remember the rumored Draisaitl + 2016 1st + for Subban, just imagine that happening jeez</div></div>

However, main reason it didn't happen was due to Chiarelli's fear of Subban's 9M cap hit and the fact Bergevin was being too greedy. Bergevin also wanted a roster defenseman going back to montreal.

Either way, Chiarelli was a one of kind. It's as if he was desperate as f*** to acquire a defenseman no matter the cost lol. Aside from Drasaitl-Subban trade, Chiarelli also considered the alternative of trading Taylor Hall for <strong>Cody Ceci</strong> before finally settling on Hall-Larsson trade. Both trade scenario would've inevitably have him trade a future Hart trophy winner out of Edmonton.

If Subban's cap hit was lower than 9M or Dorion didn't have to go through Melnyk for Hall-Ceci trade, situation would've been much worse in Edmonton.

Thread: not Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Lets be honest here, this is no from Buffalo only. MTL would take this hands down. Not that they actively want to trade KK or anything. Doesnt mean Kotkaniemi isnt good. Hes been really good lately but Habs fans are letting a 10 game span of decent play cloud their judgement here. (Im a Habs fan btw)</div></div>

Exactly. I can't understand why some people believe Habs would refuse this trade. In fact, I think they take this trade and run. #1 Defenseman are more valuable than #1 center.
this could be turn into another Seth Jones for Ryan Johansen. It was a ST win for the Preds as Johansen helped them reached SCF in 2017. Look back at that trade, it is a huge win for the Jackets as Jones is one of the top Dmen in the league. Reasons that no one is talking about that trade are their 2017 SCF appearance and Preds' abundance of good defensemen. Up until now, they could afford of losing an entire top 4. (Suter, Subban/Weber, Girard and Jones)

Just because the Sabres are horrible doesn't mean Dahlin's value is dragged down
