Thread: Kent Hughes trades since taking the job
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wreckless</b></div><div>Durzi went for a 2nd last offseason. And he was already signed at a below market contract.
1st for Zegras could be 4th overall. Or it could be 20th overall. The two are not the same.
Harris has more value than most people think. We’re overflowing at LHD right now. Someone gives us a 3rd in the off-season, minimum.</div></div>

exactly durzi went for a 2nd and has far surpassed expectations so why would AZ trade him for a 2nd? and he is 25yo RFA
zegras is 22yo, a '24 1st is 17yo so why would ANA drop 5 years and regress their rebuild back like that?
the proposal is a 2nd, not saying harris isnt good risk but at so far 18pt/82g career he is not a offensive D, 5'11 190 he is not physical D, I get have a surplus of LHD but doesnt mean get a 2nd

Thread: Daily Faceoff 10 Prospects that could be on the move
Seamus Casey

“In Matt Larkin’s recent piece looking at Juuse Saros’ potential destinations, he mentioned Casey as a potential return. It makes sense: the Devils have some good young defense, and Casey would be perfect for the Preds long term. And they’re not alone: a lot of teams would be interested in a hard-hitting, creative, dynamic two-way threat like Casey. The 20-year-old defenseman is undersized at 5-foot-9, but he has a penchant for putting opponents through the boards. The Devils don’t lack in the offensive defenseman department. Luke Hughes and Simon Nemec are two of the best young blueliners in the game today. Beyond that, though, they lack quality defensive depth. They moved Shakir Mukhamadullin in the Timo Meier trade last year, which could be what keeps the Devils from moving Casey. But it might be worth moving Casey to shore up goaltending if they’re looking to make an immediate push.”

(Keep him!)

Thread: Holtz for Guhle
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Burnout</b></div><div>I like Holtz's shot, but he's got 16 goals in 78 SHL games (and 2 goals in 3 playoff games), 5 goals in 15 WJC games, 33 goals in 76 AHL games (and 1 in 11 playoff games) and 3 goals in 28 NHL games before this season. That's not elite goal scoring. Nor does a shot drive 5 on 5 play.

Its just not a trade Montreal would make right now. beyond everything else that's been covered, one thing you're missing from the Romanov comparison is that he was a RFA. Guhle is not. This would be something Montreal might consider in 2025.</div></div>

Are you saying these numbers are bad?

Make a list of guys who scored more goals as teenager in SHL in last ten years. <a href="https://www.eliteprospects.com/league/shl/stats/all-time?age=u19&amp;from=2012-2013&amp;sort=g" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">There are none</a>

Make a list of guys who have scored more as U20 player in AHL. <a href="https://www.eliteprospects.com/league/ahl/stats/all-time?age=u20&amp;from=2012-2013&amp;to=2022-2023&amp;sort=g" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">It is brief</a>. Nylander, Fiala, Peterka…(and Rantanen on per game basis).

Make a list of guys currently on Canadiens that score at higher rate than Holtz 5v5 in NHL. <a href="https://www.naturalstattrick.com/playerteams.php?fromseason=20232024&amp;thruseason=20232024&amp;stype=2&amp;sit=5v5&amp;score=all&amp;stdoi=std&amp;rate=y&amp;team=MTL&amp;pos=S&amp;loc=B&amp;toi=100&amp;gpfilt=none&amp;fd=&amp;td=&amp;tgp=410&amp;lines=single&amp;draftteam=ALL" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">There are none</a>

or a vet in there to supplement.

You're more than welcome to keep Guhle and sell off the lesser pieces like Harris for what I expect would amount to 3rd round picks.

But Habs fans keep bothering us about holtz after spending years bothering us with stupid Josh anderson proposals.

and again, this isn't something the Habs haven't done before</div></div>

Still don't think it's something either team does though. NJ will have Hamilton, Hughes, Nemec as anchors the next 5 years +

I think they're better to keep Holtz for when Toffoli, Palat and Haula are gone. NJ should just be doing small priced rentals, they already have the horses to stay the course and have success
