Thread: Knock off the Price trades
I'm just going to put this out there.

I think the consensus around CF is that no team should trade for CP and I tend to agree as well BUT there are numerous hockey personalities online/radio etc who have stated that a trade <em>could </em>happen under the <strong>right</strong> circumstances. Those circumstances are obviously super specific but they are technically not impossible. Let's not forget, there was a GM who thought trading unprotected 1sts was a good idea or trading FOR Lucic was a good idea. Some of these guys don't think the way many of us on CF do.....

We may agree that we wouldn't do it but are you 100% there isn't a single GM in the NHL that wouldn't? I have to say, I am not certain of that.

Honestly I am less annoyed with the idea of trading Price than I am with the returns people think he'll get. At the end of the day, bring on the Price the trades! Just try to make them somewhat realistic as to spark a discussion about it.

Thread: Getting younger and winning your thoughts
Why on earth would Montreal do that with Nashville? Tolvanen has a good season in the KHL and even in his first AHL season, but now he's on a worst pace than last year. At best, it's Tatar for Tolvanen + 2nd. Then we are trading Mete + Juulsen for a 4th. How does that make sense?

Petry starts with a first round pick. Habs reject.

Do you actually think Montreal would pay up assets for Abdelkader? You have to give us a very good prospect if you want to trade him.

Montreal isn't going to pay all of those future assets for a guy who is going to get overpaid in the offseason.
Not sure why Oiler fans are so attached to Samorukov, but I wouldn't trade Lehkonen or Armia 1 for 1 for him.

What purpose does the Jett Woo trade do for Montreal? He's doing worst than last year and he's a year older

Do you think Detroit could actually get value for Abdelkader? You likely have to send a 2nd round pick + a very good prospect back if you want to offload him.

Hamilton is a career 40-50 PT defender who is going to get overpaid because of this year. I don't think Montreal should have any interest in him.

Thread: Sellers
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Karimizo</b></div><div>I think you might be underestimating a bit Petry and Tatar. Petry is still a very valuable dman and can help any team in the playoffs. With the salary retention, he is easily worth a 1st+2nd+3rd.
Tatar is currently MTL's best producer, on pace for a 68pts season and just 29yo. Remember that Vegas traded a 1st+2nd+3rd for Tatar when he had only 28pts in 62games. I think Tatar is worth a 1st and a prospect from a contender at the TDL.</div></div>

Im not some mega expert but I watch every single game of the Habs and I can tell you that Petry is good, remarquable skater, good shot, good first pass and the ability to support on offense, BUT he also showed a looot of inconstancy over the years, his decision making in defensive zone and on the PP are terrible wich is why he isnt elite. If I, a normal hockey fan can see that, it means every scout also does! Like I said, good defensman but not worth 3 good draft Pick and a roster player, especially given the fact that he's 32 with only one year left at a good price, he ask a raide and a long terme contract after this one, wich isnt super attractive for others GM.

2x2nd and an ok prospect or a 1st and a 3rd would be fair on my opinion.
