Thread: All Eyes on Montreal Rumors
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hurricanes73</b></div><div>I mean asking for Washingtons top forward prospect in lapierre, their top defensive prospect in alexyev, and a young goalie with tons of potential in samsonov for Christian dvorak Allen and a second isn’t really that smart. The trade you have proposed suggests dvoraks value has increased over the past season. Asking for any teams top prospects at forward and D is almost always getting rejected. Especially if that trade is for Christian Dvorak. Caps keep their prospects 10 times out of 10</div></div>

i dont think that Lapierre is their top forward prospect, that would be connor Mcmichael to me. I also dont think his value increased but i also dont believe he lost that much value. Almost any player on the habs with the exception of Gallagher seem to have a "you were on the worst team in the nhl" pass and teams recognize it was an anomaly that these players were on the most injured roster in NHL history. Lapierre looks like a decent prospect but then again hes a nice prospect in one of the worst pools in the NHL and seems to still need atleast a season in the AHL to develop his game to a pro hockey level. Dvorak brings you certainty at center then is able to transition to the wing when and if Backstrom returns. Alexeyev being their top D prospect also is not accurate to me as Iorio and Ferharvary seem to have higher ceilings and in one case already played nearly a full season in the NHL.

Thread: Habs 2022 Deadline Deals
The only deals IMO that are sketchy are the Paul Byron one (that one is a bit much looking back at it now maybe just a 3rd or something) and the extra pick that is on the Chiarot trade. I get that Paul B might not go to Minnesota but i think he could be a sneaky add at the deadline for a team that needs some help on PK and some speed. I saw Mini as an option considering they get him for cheap for next year too when they getting hammered on the cap with the buyouts and they have a mid-range mediocre PK that could use some help.

RDs do go for more i agree but i think chiarot is going to pull a 1st + this year. There is more players available but hes among the best names available. What else is out there? 38 year old Staal? Calvin De Haan? Lets not forget Chiarot is sought after because he can play a physical/puck moving type hybrid.

Lehkonen will be traded for a first round pick if not a high prospect and a lower pick.

Appreciate the feedback tho
