Thread: HABS
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>I think it’ll be a little higher than Dvorak, anderson, and a 1st since that’s been offered and rejected in the past. MTL fans will hate it, but there’s a real possibility that dach and a 2nd or FLA 1st is the deal considering they’ve offered that in the past.</div></div>
There's 0 chance of that happening. Dach has been one of the few highlights of the season, showed he had chemistry with both Suzuki and Caufield as a RW, and that he could also be a nice complement to Suzuki as a 2C. Hughes took a gamble on him, and it paid off. With his contract, he's not trading him away for a player who's rumored to be interested in signing in MTL in a year. And I know he can also sign somwehere else, but that's okay. Hughes wants to add a Top-6 player...trading one to get one, while adding salary doesn't make sense.

Believe me, if you were a Habs fan, you wouldn't think this made sense.

Thread: NEW GM
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>1) when he only scores 30 points and is paid like a top six player. Anderson is a cap dump, no two ways about it.

2) yes he is. Montreal fans consider Suzuki a 1C and Dubois is better in every way. Plus his stats make him a 1C.

3) lol. Okay. You like and vastly overrate your player. Don't forget we've all heard this before from Montreal fans with Domi, Scherbak, Beaulieu, Juulsen off the top of my head. Guhle is good, but isn't at the level you think he's at yet.</div></div>

1) You obviously haven't watched a single Habs game if you think Anderson's game can only be defined by points.

2) But since points are all that matters, in which world is Dubois a better player than Suzuki ? Dubois' five most frequent deployment has been with guys like Scheifele, Connor, Ehlers, Wheeler and Perfetti. You wanna know who Suzuki played with ? Caufield, when he was healthy...then you drop to guys like Hoffman, Harvey-Pinard and Ylonen. Yet Suzuki recorded 66 points to Dubois 63 points. So if Dubois stats make him a legit 1C, so does Suzuki.

3) Again...you didn't watch a single game to say that Guhle isn't years ahead of his development. If it wasn't for Matheson great performance, Guhle would already be the best defenseman on this team.
