Thread: Patches trade
So I'll say first I agree with F50marco. But here is my reasoning for the trade. Patches would be the best player at this time in the trade, however his value isn't sky high. I could see them fetching a first and a prospect elsewhere but don't expect the prospect to have the same ceiling as Clague, he has very high potential top 4 is what I'd be betting on in this trade. One argument that I hate seeing is that he was drafted in the second round so why give more than that for him. Most teams (montreal not included because of the high chance of a top 5 pick next year) would give up a first and more for Clague who by the way put up 71 points in 54 games in the WHL last season, and played on team canada. Basically if I had to choose between the 15th pick in next years draft or Clague, I take Clague everyday of the week. So pearson < patches yes of course but the difference isn't a guy like clague so we would have to give up more to get a prospect of his caliber which is where the picks come in. montreal gets a guy in pearson a everyday nhler who is at a good age for this team, clague a guy that has more guarantee then any 15 or later pick we could take next year and we fill a need at LHD. you may say you'd rather picks than pearson but money is going to have to come back, and pearson has a quality contract for what he brings.

That Sbisa signature is bad already, very bad. Habs know better now, having made that same mistake just last summer with Alzner...

The Danault signing is fair and pretty much what he should get. ?

An NHL roster is 23 players, not 26. Simply drop 3 players in the bottom listing to take care of that.</div></div>

I regret the years for sbisa but not the signing or money. I'd change it to 2 years. I think the pick is necessary because there's a risk pacioretty doesn't resign in edmonton, but if he plays 10 games with mcdavid he'd resign in a heartbeat. and ya I know just wanted to show where I saw the depth chart, a few would be in the minors.
