Thread: would this work just asking
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>It isn't close as proposed. You have Montreal taking a player that has little to no value to them (Monahan) and adds cap, while giving up two 3rds and a 4th. Pitlick doesn't impact the value at all. This is Toffoli plus picks for Pelletier.

Tatar was a tool for cap mitigation where he luckily rebounded. That's best case for Monahan and not a likely outcome.

When you say Pelletier and a 2nd that's what I said. It involves the extra step of retaining and flipping Monahan to make that happen however. That's closer.

Calgary taking care of Monahan separately, or a 3-way where he just passes through (basically a guarantee we will indeed get a 2nd from another team), is what I see as reasonable.

I still don't consider Pelletier an attractive target, but I already conceded that he's a piece of value in my first sentence.</div></div>

wondering why you don't like Pelletier, he's a point per game player in the ahl with some pretty good skill, I believe its because he's slightly undersized? I tend to like bigger players but if we got Pelletier I wouldn't be upset

as for Monahan, he had 5 very good seasons in a row for Calgary and is only 3 seasons removed from 20 goals. To me getting him and playing him in the top 6 hoping he finds some chemistry and bounces back is much more valuable than a 2nd. If at the deadline he's on pace for 20 goals you could easily get a second for him and if he doing better you could get a first.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>Not even close.

Pelletier is the only piece of value to Montreal and that's only IF he can handle C at the NHL level as an undersized player on a roster that already projects to feature two undersized players in the top 6 for the foreseeable future (or up to 4-5 in the top 9 from existing prospects/players).

If you assume Montreal is retaining 50% on Monahan and flipping him for at least a 2nd, perhaps it's closer. Have to remove all the picks coming from Montreal to start with.</div></div>

just because you have concerns for the prospect in the trade doesn't mean it isn't close. Pelletier is a high end prospect and you're getting a Tatar esque player where maybe he could play really well for you next season and you flip him at the deadline for something solid. Toffoli is good but he's not elite. A top prospect like Pelletier and maybe a second is what your getting. it is a very good value trade for the Habs but you could go target another prospect if you like

Thread: 2022 FIVE ROUND MOCK DRAFT
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AFox23</b></div><div>Just not guys I am high on. And I think players from the US development program have often gotten overrated. Few, outside of Matthews and Kane, have actually had success. And yet every year, people like to take a ton in first round. Even the ones that make it to NHL seem to average. Just go down the list, year by year, and you'll see what I am talking about.</div></div>
I agree that they get overhyped a lot, but to say few outside of Matthews and kane is not true
Your account is named after a usdp player,eichel, Seth Jones, werenski, kessel, jt Miller, both hughes, both tkuchuks, Troy terry,Larkin, zegras,mcavoy, noris,Keller,saad,Fowler,trouba,jvr to name a few


I think your over punishing usdp players like cooley and over hyping some Europe’s like yurov. Yurov is not a top 5 player and Cooley shouldn’t be outside of 10 as a start imo

Thread: Desperate team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMs</b></div><div>No, MTL aren’t trading Edmundson, he is our most steady dman and he will mentor our young LHD like Romanov Guhle Harris Norlinder. If we trade Edmundson, Romanov become our 1LHD at 22 yo</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>That’s fair. I was just thinking because you guys are rebuilding. Maybe Soucy would be a better guy to get instead. Thanks for the feedback! If you move Edmundson, do you think they would sign Chiarot to play 1LD? It’s not the best option, but if they get a very good offer for Edmundson, they might have to take it.. I see why you say no though.</div></div>
If we’re tearing it down than yes move edmunson did the right price. What would be your offer <a href="/users/Nhl_oilers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Nhl_oilers</a>

Thread: thinking outside the Box
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rob32sjsharks</b></div><div>2 1sts and a 2nd dude you think way to high of him.
this is what he was dealt for from LA to Vancouver 2 years ago.

Tim Schaller · $1,900,000
Tyler Madden · $0 (AHL/JR) (Signing Rights)
2020 2nd round pick (VAN - #51 - Theodor Niederbach)
2022 4th round pick (VAN) [Conditional]*

Tyler madden is looking OK and Tim Schaller wasn't even resigned
so in essence a 3rd round prospect a 2nd and a 4th.
I'm offering a former 1st a 3rd and a 1st because he is signed longer term.</div></div>
I’d probably accept the deal above. Although your saying 2 firsts but ozzy was the last pick of the first round and isn’t doing the best this year. You could easily make the argument that ozzy is valued at a 2 rounder. So a first 2 and 3 is the trade, which is think is pretty fair for toffoli

Thread: Trades to get us into the playoffs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>I wouldn’t say he is a perfect hitter, but he is solid defensively. He’s not one to get a lot of points. He is just a good all around guy, but especially in the defensive end. He can definitely block shots, throws a few hits but not a lot. I like him, and I think he’s a good player. I personally would like to keep him, but for these guys, I would trade him.</div></div>
Would you remove him and replace the second with a first? And I completely understand your side which is avoiding giving up the first and you seem to understand my side which is trying to get that first as that could be a nice piece for us moving forward. Our draft is at home and that being our second pick maybe we could swing for the fence

Again it’s possible I’m overvaluing my teams players just a bit as all fans do, but if I’m giving up a good top 4 d who you guys would love for the playoffs and could resign plus a good top 6 winger on a value contract, I’m trying to get into my comfort zone which is savoie who is solid but not great plus a first

Anyways no matter what this is a solid trade and I’m probably being a bit fussy about the return, just have savoie and that first in my head
