The basic idea of a 3-way between MTL, MIN and WPG is good, but this proposal is too convoluted, there's too much moving parts. It would make more sense for WPG to move Ehlers.

Obviously, there's a fair share of risk involved, but at one point you've got to go all in. Is swapping Domi for Laine sufficient to push MTL in contender territory? Maybe, maybe not. But if MTL stay put and wait for Caufield and Romanov to pan out, will the team be in a better position consireding that Price and Weber will be closing in on 40?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FiveForFighting</b></div><div>Ehlers is a great all around fit. Plays a fast game, plays on the RW which is what Habs need right now. He’s also a former teammate of Drouin in Halifax and wouldn’t cost as much to acquire.
Laine might be an elite player but still has never put up over 70 pts. The rebuild is over because the Habs have drafted most of the missing pieces they needed.. Trading away a top 6 forward and locker room guy plus your two best prospects for one guy is taking a step back.
If Laine gets injured and misses half a season, the Habs have nothing to show for with that transaction and are back to square 1.
Name me the last time youve seen a team trade this much for one player</div></div>
Pacioretty is a comparable, but it makes sense to offer a bigger package for a player that will be 7 years younger at the time of the trade, and who's a pending-RFA.

Laine Trade Discussions
I'd do it. The framework of this trade is similar to the Pacioretty trade, with a premium since Laine is younger and a pending RFA: two high-end prospects instead of one, plus one established player.
MTL adds an elite goal scorer now, and doesn't lose much in Domi as he's expendable. The real risk here for MTL is Romanov.

Really? Ehlers is probably a better all-around player, but Laine is an elite goal scorer, plus he's younger.
Domi has been pushed out of the top 6 while Caufield and Romanov are unknown commodities at this stage. Better have the elite player than 3 lesser talents.
The owner said it, the reset is over. MTL has now lots of assets to spare, and it's time to morph quantity into quality.

Ok, so if the offer is Domi, Caufield and CHI's 2nd, would you do it?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheLastOfUs</b></div><div>No, as much as I love Laine...MTL has been looking for a 1C and 2C for YEARSSSS!!! and they finally have that in Suzuki and KK.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Subbanator7667</b></div><div>Still think it would take another piece but the Habs shouldnt do it if it involves Suzuki or KK. They finally have young centers who actually look promising, see what they become before you trade them away.</div></div>
I get it, MTL has finally found something that went missing for years, it's hard to throw it away. The thing is, MTL has too much top 6 centers now. Fans are not GMs, yet all trade proposals involving Domi or Danault posted on this site that were somewhat received positively by other fanbases would fetch an underwelming return (a late 1st, and/or a middle-aged, or underperforming or about to be UFA top4 LD or top6 RW).
Of course, trading Zuke hurts, but there's no way MTL will receive a quality piece if he's not part of a package. You've got to give to receive. Plus, the centerline would still be very potent with KK, Danault and Domi. It's not like it would be 2012 again.
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DomCholette</b></div><div>sincerly, I think the Jets decline... even if Suzuki is shinning to be THE 1C... but didn't play a real full year there yet vs a REAL POWER F in Laine 40G+ scorer in this crazy NHL...

Framework of a Domi trade for every team
<a href="/users/Kotkaniemi15" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Kotkaniemi15</a>: These are just fans opinions but there's a trend there: Domi's value is probably at an all time low. Might as well hold on to him for now. What if MTL moved one of Zuke or KK instead? Their value is much higher. With KK/Zuke, Domi and Danault, MTL center line would still be very solid.

Who to draft?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Howisbergevinstillhere</b></div><div>Really interesting,
It’s funny because I was always really excited about primeau but when I saw him live he looked odd. I’m not sure why but he didn’t look like “the guy”, even with his great numbers. You said get away from a “goalie-based” team. Not quite sure what that means? You should always be strong at every position. It does make you wonder how he views primeau. Also age might be a factor as askarov is 3 years younger than primeau. That being said, no matter who you pick; your adding high end talent for the future. Wether it’s Jarvis, Holloway or Mercer as top 6 forwards or its askarov as a top end starting goalie. It’ll be an interesting month or so leading up to the draft</div></div>
Thanks. By goalie-based team, I mean that having Price on the roster has clearly set the tone for MB's roster building decisions since he took over. He's shying away from an allout rebuild and he's saying things like "when you get in the playoffs, anything can happen" because he knows his starting goalie is dominant at times, and that its just a matter of Price getting hot at the right time to make a push for a cup run. That's also why I think he's not stripping the team for higher chances of landing cornerstone skaters; as long as there's just enough scoring power in front of him, any year could be "the year".

Who to draft?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Howisbergevinstillhere</b></div><div>Gms don’t actually use best player available usually.
That being said I’ve thought hard about this one. You take a potential stud goalie and keep him in Russia and maybe like Igor in New York he comes over at 24 which would be about 6 years from now and is a beast right away and replaces price. Or he takes 3 or 4 years and is the back up to price and learns while maybe playing 32 or even a clean 40/40 split depending on how price is in 3 or 4 years. You can then finish out the price deal by ltir or just an expensive backup that gets cancelled out by askarov being cheap. Now we get to the other part which is passing up on Jarvis,bHolloway and Mercer. They should be impact players before askarov and your adding a good forward to the young core of kk, Suzuki, and caufield(not counting Romanov because he’s a d, and domi and drouin are uncertain futures). We don’t necessarily need askarov as we have primeau. So are you almost wasting a pick?Or are you getting a better goalie and then trading primeau for something good when askarov is ready?How do you skip on a talent like the three above for a position that you don’t need now or in the future?</div></div>
IMO, MTL's top priority over the next couple of drafts should be to prepare for post-Price era. Primeau has been a steady riser since his draft day, but he still hasn't convinced seasoned talent evaluators (Pronman, Wheeler, Button) that he's elite-level material. One can argue that goalie prospects trajectoires are unpredictable, but at the end of the day there's only one starting goalie on the team, and if he's not rock solid you better have a heck of a team in front of him to outscore the opponent.
Based on the current state of the franchise, one could argue that 4-5 years from now MTL will have 4 maybe 5 elite-level skaters - Suzuki, KK, Caufield, Romanov and maybe Norlinder. Will that be enough to convince MB to get away from the goalie-based team building we've been witnessing since he took over? I doubt it. In fact, I'm willing to bet that he's got "adding a top-ranked goalie to the prospect pipe" as a priority on his agenda. If Askarov falls at 16, I don't see MB passing on him.
