Thread: Montreal trade for Lucic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>twodollarlobster</b></div><div>As much as I would want to get rid of Lucic, I really don't like that trade. If Pacioretty doesn't resign then that trade would be two first rounders, Lucic, and Yamamoto for a 2nd rounder. This trade would gut the Oilers prospect pool and I don't think Chia does this ( although based on his track record he might do something this dumb)</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>While inconvenient, it probably makes a lot more sense for the Oilers to either buy him out or retain 50% in a trade.

I edited the deal, signing Pacioretty to an extention and throwing in byron, who could be a nice fit in Edmonton with the speed he has.

And if Montréal sign Pacioretty prior to the trade to a multi years contract, would that make it more acceptable?

Thread: Fair trade?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>I hope you know you’re also LOSING Alzner which is an addition by itself. The Habs would be a much better team with Ryan in their top 6 than Alzner in their top 4. Habs can still go out and sign a FA centre like stasney. I’m just suggesting this is a move that makes a lot of sense</div></div>

Yeah addition by subtraction. But at this level ure better trading him for a late pick to a team that could need him or trying to reach the salary floor.

I feel you trade a broken leg Vs a lung cancer.

Alzner had a terrible year, as did everyone in Montréal not named gallagher pretty much. But cost way less and is possible to trade. He could very well come back to his normal tenure next season.

Ryan has had the last 2 years under 40pts, just turn 31 and is sign at a 7.25. They can't move him, as trying to include him in a karlsson trade proves.

My take is that it's not a hockey trade that make sens for Montréal.

Thread: Solving problems
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>Dallas is very weak on the left side defensively. Murray, when healthy, is capable of playing big minutes. He would be a perfect pairing to Klingberg. Dubi would have a mil retained on his contract making the contract more respectable should he bounce back. Dubi is a proud guy and will likely bounce back. The Jackets are working on a new wave of players and need to retain certain key players. Dubi’s contract makes it difficult. This trade works well for both teams.</div></div>

Dallas have 17M free right now, with 2 RD to sign, a backup G and some fowards to add in the mix.
on the left side of their D, they are doing pretty fine with Methot, Lindell and Heinskanen coming up next season.

Dubinsky comes with a bit less than a 18M contract, while Spezza is ufa at the end of the year.
I dont doubt Dubinsky is a proud player, but he's not getting faster, nor younger. theres a reason why you want to send him in dallas in return of Spezza.
Murray only played one full season, and it was in 15-16.
If im the Dallas Stars, i say thanks but no thanks. it would be less costly for them to just buy out Spezza.
They are probably in the Tavares derby too. with Dubinsky in there, its just too costly for them.

and about milano, how do you see him evolve? I didnt see him play much, but he looks like a fish in the water on the PP, moving well, good hands and all. before getting injured, he was producing allright for his first year in the show.
whats your thoughts about him?
