<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>If Montreal didn't accept Minten for Monahan 1 for 1, then Montreal deserve to be terrible for the next decade.</div></div>

Minten is a bottom 6 forward, id much prefer a 1st rounder or even a 2nd and 3rd, Hes another Riley Kidney

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>You aren’t trading the isles any players they need and they’re giving up a 1st to do it…</div></div>

Isles need a LHD, depth scoring and some size never hurt.

Thats exactly what they get

Thread: Add g depth wingers

Youd be better off sending the 2024 or 2025 1st to MTL and the 2026 1st to WSH. I could see Pacthes waiving his NMC for the OIlers. And Tanev wont cost a 1st, Zadorov went for scraps

Thread: Getting deeper and more physical

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caufield</b></div><div>MTL definitely accept</div></div>

Every forward in the top 7 of the 2025 draft has a higher ceiling than Guentzel. That Calgary pick can straight up be a top 10 pick. They already suck and will only get worse next season. Id trade the 2 2nds and Anderson for Carter but the Habs arent trading a away a 1st rounder for a 29 year old whos a ufa

Thread: Broberg Trade Options

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>Montreal doesnt wants or needs defensemen or small wingers. The pipeline is full. Complete. Overflowing.

This simple fact makes 90% of the AGMs involving MTL a complete waste of time.</div></div>

holy ****, you actually have no concept of asset management, Another trade where youd rather keep a role player than get someone with potential upside. Evans is a 4C on any other team in the league. Only on the Habs he gets top 6 minutes. And the only thing the Habs pipeline is full of is **** bottom 6 forwards. Broberg actually have top 4 upside and allows the Habs to use a Xhekaj or Harris in a trade to move up in the trade or acquire elite talent

Thread: Silly

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>Well you would be a terrible GM then. Size matters and Montreal has no big foward except Slaf and Anderson. Can't win with Caufield, Gally, Roy, Newhook, Farrell and Mesar as a top 9.</div></div>

Size hasnt mattered for at least 10 years now. And even then, the habs arent competing any time soon so why pay depth role player when you could get a player with top 6 point numbers when firing. What you want is horrific asset management.

Thread: Campbell

Habs would give you Allen 50% retained for only 1 1st if Campbell is retained that much

Thread: GMs are dumb so this is somehow possible

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>Montreal doesn't need to pay to move Anderson (yet).

The 1st is the only thing that moves the needle in the Edmonton trade. Not worth giving up Monahan and taking Campbell for those pieces.

Washington trade is inconsequential for Montreal. Just taking a lot of extra cap for a 3rd. Neither player is here long enough to matter.

Primeau for a 5th is fine (to any team) if he's destined for waivers.</div></div>

The Habs would have to pay anyone for Anderson unless a worse contract comes back, Garland is solid, just not scoring. And for the price of pieces the Habs have extras of, they save 600k in cap and a year

The WSH trade is to acquire a better center for this year and to attempt a reclamation project. If Kuzzy turns into a 70 point player again, you could trade him 50% retained for a haul. While Dvorak is a just bad and wont get anything.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Black61</b></div><div>Habs decline. Anderson has been back on track for several games now and Garland is just as ****ty except hes 5'10 and doesnt fight people.</div></div>

He has 1 emtpy net goal. He went 0% WAR to 1% WAR. He stinks. Garland is a much better player, id even give up more to never see Anderson in a Habs jersey again

Thread: Monahan

probably cant retain with Allen or Pearson taking it but i think you could pay a team the 4th to retain like how the Habs took a 5th to retain on Bonino

yes the rebuilding Habs should keep a 32 year old goalie who gives them free wins

The Sabres don’t want Allen.

Its the best metric for goalies. And the Sabres have no one better and theres no one better on the market

And how exactly is Allen ranked 30th?
Allen is ABSOLUTELY NOT a “starting caliber” goalie</div></div>

His Goal saved above expected is 30th in the league. that makes him the 30th best goalie in the league. look further than GAA and Wins to evaluate goalies

If the Sabres go after a goalie-IF- then it’ll be a legit starter
Allen is a backup quality goalie</div></div>

Hes the 30th ranked goalie this year. Thats a starter. And whos that legit starter? Saros, hes been ****. Gibson, too much term. Theres no one else

why wouldnt they want a starting goalie? Luukkonen is playing well but he cant do it himself. Levi could use 2 years in the AHL

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LumberJacques</b></div><div>I don't mind him... except on pp1.

Right now Ylonen is definitely playing better and deserving of more ice than Anderson and Armia. Beyond this I'm fine with him on the team.</div></div>

Hes literally one of the worst players in the league. All hes done this year is draw penalties but he also takes them so its barely a positive

As an aside, have you ever actually looked at the game data from the NHLs Public API? Bc i have and it's really not that great. I'm unsure why you'd put so much faith in a model that's propped up by thin data.</div></div>

This is from moneypuck. A public model that goes much more in depth than any garbage the NHL could come up with

Thread: I dont know if its a good idea

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNCountryClub</b></div><div>It is not.

1) Allen has a worse GAA and marginally better S% than MAF.
2) MN, the 30th place team, isn't giving up future capital for a lateral backup goalie and a few bucks on the cap.</div></div>

lol using GAA and sv% in 2023 to evaluate goalies

Allen has a 1.4 Goals Saved Above Expected
Fleury has a -7.4 Goals Saved Above Expected

Minny is 14th in expected goal differential. A decent goalie turns them into a playoff team. For the price of a 3rd, they get potential playoffs
