I would agree with you. Carolina would not do that. but if you can go Galy and maybe Joulsen, plus a pick, they probably would. hanifin looks like he could be a really good player....already is

Thread: Rebuild underway, improved at C

I would rather see MTL leave out the 1st rounder, add a 2nd rounder(2 2nd rounders) and try to get Calgary's 1st round pick from last draft.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Horvat53</b></div><div>Yes. Not enough. And Snow lose his job right after that trade.</div></div>

Personally I don't hate the Isle trade. I think MTL needs to add a 2nd rounder to make it more fair, but the Isle are getting a legit top 4 dmen with retained salary. Bellows(playing Jr. may never be a good NHL player) and a 1st for a top 4 dmen on any team in the league, on a good contract, can play in every situation......seems fair.
Cizikas has 14 points, hardly has value to me.

Thread: Bergy is Busy at the TDL

If anything, its Coyle straight up for Galy, but even as a Hab fan and I love Galy, i still dont think that enough. For me, I trade Gally, McCarron, and a 2nd for Coyle and Greenway(if you can get him, I prefer the young russian Kirill Kaparov or something, but that's a stretch).
Coyles and Galys numbers are almost the exact same with the exception that Coyne is a true center.
Giving a fringe NHL player(who is ready in my opinion) and a 2nd probably is the value of the 2 prospects

ya thats a tough sell. I like Sprongs talents but I feel like the Pens could find a "Plek" type guy for cheaper. Letestu, Cullen...ect.
If im MTL, I would send a second plus plek for Sprong, but i still dont know if that is the value, even with retaining some salary.

Thread: Patches trade fits?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Habs4ever</b></div><div>One thing I do know is Patch has been traded over a million times on this site. But what if he is not traded? why not. A 30 goal scorer in your line up for another full year at a very fair cap hit. Then re-sign him or trade him next year. Who knows, all I know is my focus would be on our defence and obtaining a legit #1 C. Some people say, ya use Patch to go get that C or D you require. But if we get a legit C, Patch on his wing would be awesome. There are 3 C`s and 5 D`s out there in UFA land. Not named JT or John Carlson either. Because those two will get a boat load of money.</div></div>

100% agree. Why is MTL fans so horny to trade this guy. Im a Hab fan and I hope they dont trade him. Leave him for one year and if they are in the same position next year, then yes trade him. But trading a 5x 30 goal scorer before he turns 30 is bad hockey sense.

Thread: Adding assets

I think if MTL is trading Max, they probably aren't interested in retaining non of his Salary. But maybe that is why you put in a 1st and and 2nd in.

Thread: Dallas trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Starsfan98</b></div><div>3 reasons why this trade sure as hell won't happen.

Reason 1: Heiskanen is the most valuable of the pieces in this trade. They sure as hell won't trade him, unless the return is insane

Reason 2: Dallas can't resign Pacioretty. They sure as hell will not pay practically 3 first round picks (Heiskanen and Tufte are both first rounders) for a rental player

Reason 3: Dallas just bought Niemi out. They sure as hell will not want him back.

This is <strong>sure as hell </strong>one of the most one-sided trade I've ever seen.</div></div>

I agree with you, but Pac isn't a rental. Still has one more year under that current contract.

What you say is fair, but to say his value is double of what Pacioretty's is a little crazy.
29 year olds that are on a really good cap value that have already scored 30 goals 5 times....are pretty rare, especially in these days.

Thread: Deadline Moves

MTL probably wont make that trade or would have a tough time making it. I like Benson but he has sever injury concerns and Maroon is purely a rental. The 1st is probably correct on value especially if Montreal is sending all those picks.
If i was the MTL GM, I accept the trade then trade Maroon as soon as I acquire him to another team for picks. So I would turn Patch into Benson(good prospect, injury concerns), a 1st, and probably a 2nd or a 1st from Maroon(depending on his value at the time. Remember, Rentals go for crazy value sometimes).

yes I looks bad, but honestly what was he suppose to do? You need to sign Price or have the Hab faithful storm your house if you let him walk or trade him at that time.

Wishful thinking that you are getting Mathews for anything less then 12/season.

I like the JVR deal though. I think he will cost any team 5.5 aka what Oshie got.

MTL wouldn't do that deal. Gallaghar, plek(worth probably a 4th in my mind, with MTL retaining half his salary) and a 2nd for.....
Lazar - Largely unproven and looks like a lost young player. zero goals doesnt help his cause.
Dube - Small and skilled, could be something in a few years.
Ferland - Plays with 2 really good hockey players(Monahan and Johnny Hockey), but other then that he could be a 3rd line guy.
Brower - Woof.

Thread: Blues Look To Go All The Way

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Chopper02</b></div><div>If you're doing a rebuild and the cap keeps growing, you can afford to have some dead cap space. See Toronto. Granted, theirs is only 1.2 mil with Kessel's contract, but it's allowed them to rebuild effectively</div></div>

Yes the cap is moving up and up, but we all know there will be a market correction for that at the next CBA. Paying a retained salary of 3 million just cant be the option, especially at that log team. If it was 1 million or 1.2 on that term, then ok get it done. But MTL can't have Price go to another team and have to retain 30%ish of the cap hit.

Not sure a deal would get done then. Why would MTL trade him only to retain 3 million of his cap? So essentially he plays for someone else for 7 million.
