<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Montreality25</b></div><div>So Duclair who was a third round pick himself and is now on his third team because hes underperforming is now worth a 2nd round pick?

Habs - Oilers trade is more realistic</div></div>

Its not about what he was when he got drafted, but about his market value, and although he did not do great in the past few seasons, hes a 22 year old kid who's proven to have a great talent at the NHL level and I do think he has lots of potential. He's also not at his 3rd team for Underperforming, The New York trade to Arizona was simply a hockey transaction, he was not underperforming in New York, its expected that a 18-19 year old kid doesn't kill it right away and needs to be sent back down a few times for his development. He did very well in his first season in Arizona and then **** went downhill. Can you blame the guy for playing in Arizona? Anyways, I think that any team who wants rights to Duclair as we speak, will need to give 2nd rounder for him. Turnsout Montreal has 4, and I'm giving the highest second rounder, which is the last pick of the second round. It is in my opinion, very realistic.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Because there's not a chance Hawks take on that contract, nor do they need him at this point. Sikura is taking the #3RW.</div></div>

Totally, Chicago was just thrown in there as an example, Hense why I made sure to state that it could be any other team. Basically I just don't see shaw in MTL's picture any more.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SammyT_51</b></div><div>My thinking in that deal would be that Perreault is taking much more of a cap space than 2.5mil Shaw. They could let their younger guys play higher and developing them right in the game (Vesalainen, Roslovic) with veterans while Perreault would provide neccesity for MTL at C. And he is french-canadien! :D Shaw on the other hand is great playoff performer and he might really be that one piece which would take WPG to another level.</div></div>

I agree, I'd love to see perreault for sure. At the end of the day, I've just been seeing lots of unrealistic trades out here, and Although all the talk is around Tavares, I still think that even with Tavares's acquisition , MTL would need one more center. So yea, I'd be happy with perreault or any other decent Center we could score a deal with for sure.
