Thread: Trading for MTLs 1st Rounder
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Well the first problem is assuming the Habs have the 9th pick. We don't how the season will end yet and based on points % the Habs could get 8th pick. After the lottery we could potentially move down to 10th or 11th for all we know so it really depends. We simply don't know yet. The second is assuming they have to choose between Lundell or Quinn right now. What if its Perfetti? What if its Rossi? What if its Holtz?

But ultimately its a gamble either way. It really depends on who is available and how lucky you get with their development. We've seen Fleury's development so far and its not inspiring. We've seen Suzuki's development so far and its not inspiring. Bean has been very decent but is he better than who you think you can get with the Habs pick? You clearly don't think so being the one willing to make this trade from Carolina's perspective. Why would the Habs think otherwise? Like I said its probably fair value but is it enough to make anyone want to accept? Not sure. Im very much on the fence leaning towards no. Still feels like quantity over quality. Until the quantity makes up for the lack of quality (in comparison to the 9th pick) I don't think id accept.</div></div>

Fair. But the reason why the habs would value these three players more than the canes would be the bro combos. That's why I chose the habs and not some other team in the 7-10 range.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Even though the value may be fair I think the Habs would probably prefer the chance of a real stud with that pick. This is the age old question of quality over quantity. I tend to want the quality but if the quantity gets to a certain point, I might change my mind. As is I can't say I would yet although the players involved are nice pieces. Just not enough of a wow factor to say yes.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>math731</b></div><div>You picked the wrong team for that kind of trade (even if teams dont trade top 10 picks). MTL already have a ton of great prospects, we're better off taking an elite talent like Raymond, Perfetti or Rossi than get 2-3 ok guys</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sebybbq</b></div><div>Like my fellow friend mentioned Montreal have a lot of good prospect but need that one who will emerge as a star. This year top 10 prospect have that potential so Montreal will stick with it.</div></div>

All fair points, but say you draft Quinn or Lundell at 9. Are either of these players going to be stars that are worth more than Suzuki, Bean, and Fleury combined?
