Thread: Predicting Provorov and Hart trades
Don't mean to undermind your AGM, just a comment. With the recent result that Montembault put up, and the development he had during the season, I would be very surprised if Hugues made a move to trade him out, even for Hart. He's showing high potential and I think they'll want to keep him around.

Now, I have no clue what would be needed to bring in Hart, but with Sam in Mtl they suddenlydon't have a rush to move fast. Many said Montembault would not be a good 1st goalie at the start of the season, but his progression changed many's opinion of him. Not saying he'll be the next Roy or Price, but surely a good no 1 if he keeps on that path.

Hart has high value, not sure what Habs could send that would actually be of interest to the Flyers. And Brière may just keep him in order to ensure a solid goalie in a year or two.

Thread: Just signings no trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>I could be wrong, but I've gotta think if Caufield was willing to sign that, it'd already be done, no?</div></div>

Dunno, no one knows right now if it's the years or the money that's blocking the negiciations. Habs have the bigged end of the stick right now, but you don't want to play that game with a guy who you want to be your future scorer. If so, then ask around who wants him, and trade him for something that could have a similar return .. if there is a team out there willing to put up more cash or less years.

Some say he wants around 8.5M$/yr for 5 years; others say he want over 10M$/yr if Habs want him for 8 years; then you have those saying they want to lock him under Suzuki's return between 7 to 7.5M$/yr for 8 years.. SO much speculation out there.

Thread: Vision for the future
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>M_Swann</b></div><div>CBJ need Carlsson more than Hutson.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SK101</b></div><div>Not even close to getting 3OA. Hutson could get the LA pick but definitely not the jackets pick</div></div>

Ok, I'd go for the LA pick instead and pick another prospect.

Or, what else could get this done? Add Beck or Kidney to the deal? CAL first in 2025? Or a 2nd in 2023?

In order to get them actual immediate help at center, I would think they'll be targetting someone on the UFA market that is already a proven NHLer. Krejci? Compher? Rodrigues? Haula?

Maybe trade with VGK for Roy? VGK are basically in the can in terms of cap space, they'll need t move someone.. Eichel and Karlsson can't be moved. Roy could be an option.

How about Toronto, if Matthews confirms that he sees his future elswhere in a US market, they could potentially do a three way trade to get assets like Hutson and Evans (who as a low cap hit for a center), add on to the trade and get the big name Center they need like Matthews.

Maybe even go to VAN and do the same deal but for Petterson (If he agree to lift the NMC clause to play with Gaudreau)..

THere are possibilities out there ..

They still have Jenner, Roslovic, Kuraly, and Sillinger on the books. Sillinger can be dropped back for further development and bring in a big name for Gaudreau and Laine. THey are currently sitting at 18 players with a bit under 17M$ to spare. So if they can either go UFA or trade for a player from a team desperate to move cap or get something in return for a soon to be lost cause, could be worth it to trade for Hutson, Evans, Beck/Kidney and a 1st in 2025 or 2nd in 2023?

While they may need Carlsson, would they need that center to perform now or a few years down the road when Gaudreau and Laine may lose some of their shine??

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ohmyjlord</b></div><div>Yeah but you need, at least, a decent prospect in that package. Dvorak is seen by many WPG's fans a negative value (I disagree, but anyway). Pezzetta holds little to no value for a retooling/rebuilding team, other than a body to put in a jersey. And that 1st is very late. You need at least a Kidney-type prospect in there, otherwise, I'm holding on to Dubois if I'm WPG, knowing I'll get more value than that at the deadline, as a rental.</div></div>

Yeah, you are preaching to someone who has the same idea in terms of value. But I would provide them with two more with the RFA rights of Gurianov and Sund instead of a Kidney-type. Gurianov does have potential if he can find the right linesmates. He was brought in late and had more points with the habs in 23 games than with the Stars for 43. Giving him a one year deal at his hit of 2.9M$ qualifiying offer gives WIN a chance to see if he can go longer terms without impacting their salary cap. Sund, work in progress, could bring him in for an AHL offer, or let him develop one more year in Europe.

Else maybe Norlinder as a add-on?

Same for me on Dvorak, he can be very good when he gets his chance, in MTL he got hammered because of his revolving linesmates.

As for Pezzetta, I think he's more than a fill in, he actually can provide good depth and can be a valuable asset for the fourth line on any team. Mtl just has too many 4th liners as it is and could offer him as a piece of the puzzle WIN needs to get those gritter guys on the ice.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KyleDubasWWEFAN</b></div><div>I'd love to hear about these mystery offers and from whom? Let's hear it!</div></div>

I added Windjammer to the ignore list, he just trolls anything that doesn't match his expectations of a player who is interesting but has never gone over a 63 pts career high.

He thinks WIN have the bigger end of the stick for Dubois. Can't figure out the player is RFA with arbitration rights which means if they low ball him for the contract or try to sign him for more than a year, he'll go to arbitration and most probably receive a one year deal over 7M$ which WIN don't have to match if they want a full roster. They have 15 signed players and 12M$ to spare. If Chev spends half his cap on one guy for one year, he'll just have handed the team to the next GM.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ohmyjlord</b></div><div>Yeah, I'm more on the conservative side when it comes to Dubois...but even I can tell you WPG ain't taking that deal.</div></div>

Problem with any scenarios concerning Dubois is that if I put in a first and a second round picks with players it’s either the “WE’LL GET MORE!!” or “ARE YOU CRAZY? HE’S WORTH A 3RD ROUNDER AT BEST!” either way I get the crazies from Win who think Dubois will get them the moon or the crazies from Mtl that want to give them a third and a prospect picked in the 7th round playing in Timbucktoo Iteland…

I’m just trying to give Win a fair deal at this time. While Dubois is young, he still hasn’t broken the 100 pts/year and his valie is a second line centerman capable of bouncing to the first if need be. So, I figure a high first round, a capable Center signed for a few years who can’t really demande out of that crappy city and a guy who can play hard and put up points would give them a balance until they can find a younger player who just wants to play in the league, even in Win…

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>Wpg says no, not even close. And what comments? Dubois hasn't said anything about wanting to play in MTL. In fact, he called it fake news lol.</div></div>

Yeah… HE called fakes news. Sure… nothing anywhere saying that but hey, you clearly are in his circle of trust. Actually, even better, his agent discussed this last year. If Chev doesn’t trade him to MTL he’ll either lose him when Dubois gets something between 6.5 to 7.5 in arbitration and they can’t make room for him or will need to give up other players to make that room, or pose him in a year and yeah, teams are interested for him, but knowing he’ll go UFA and want to see if Mtl is a destination for him they won’t pay a first and NHL caliber players.

Here’s the comment by his agent last year reported by an actual sports news media TheScore:
“ His agent, Pat Brisson, said Wednesday that Dubois would like to play for the Montreal Canadiens.

"Montreal is a city he would probably … I can talk about it because he doesn't have a contract at the moment - he's a restricted free agent," Brisson told TVA Sports in French, as translated by The Athletic. "Montreal is a place, a city he'd like to play in. That's all I can say about that."”…

Thread: A competitive team
WASH - Would be good, just don't know how if the Caps would have the cap to want Dvorak. I think moving Mantha out would be more of a cap dump for them since they are high up there. Taking Dvorak would only free a little bit. But still. Something to think about.

WIN - Giving lots for Dubois, but if you don't you'll have a plethora of comments from the same users that think Dubois will fetch 2 first round picks, two top notch propects and a fullt top 6 NHLer.. So may as well overpay to keep them at bay. I do the same on some of my AGMs.

CHI - Don't think Chicago would want to take on Gallagher's contract, even with a first pick. Too long, too expensive.

ARZ - Don't see that happening. I think Carey will retire a Habs since his contract is paid bu insurances and he doesn't count against the cap. I don't see him being moved out anytime soon unless Habs pay lots for it like other teams have done and the reason Arizona basically owns the next three years of prospects.. LOL!

Still, the WASH and WIN moves could be good.

I think the offer for 2 picks, Pezz who has grits and can put it in once in a while with Beck is more than enough. Hoff is there to see if he can shine on his contract year and has little consequences to the Cap Hit NYR will want if they want to keep Tarasenko.
