Thread: What would it take

Hughes current trades target underperforming young nhlers, already drafted prospects, and picks. Based on what minute eating defenders go for on the trade market, Edmonton is probably including Puljujarvi or Yamamoto. From there it would be a first or prospect and probably not both. Jp/Ky + Xb/1st.. is he worth that.. no... does it matter to gms... also no.

Thread: An Eddy Return

Teams dont typically retain for more than 1 year. Its possible here as its only 2 seasons, but would limit the habs options during next seasons deadline if they are selling again. Its also not a very big contract for a top 4 defender so retention seems unlikely regardless. It would meet their current ask, whether high or not though.

Thread: Final Anderson offer

Values aside, theres just no way two teams handcuff themselves for 5 years by using one of their retention slots. And as weve seen in the past theres a premium paid when these two teams trade so retention would be a non-option anyways. Again im not arguing values, just applying past league history to this scenario

Thread: Bo Horvat

Horvat is not a fit in Jersey, unless you are ready to give up high assets and make in your 3rd line center. I really like the idea of a hughes, hiscier, horvat trio that would be hard for any team to beat in the playoffs and protects you from injury problems. Alas gms are rarely that bold and horvat likely says no if he has any protection(not sure).

Thread: Chychrun goes to buffalo

Only observation is that protected 1st rounders that bump to the following years if top 10, almost always have to be unprotected for the next year.

Thread: TDL Beefcake

Should add i think the Avs/Habs trade is a good fit and idea. I dont like to argue prices, so i applaud the idea here.

Thread: TDL Beefcake

JE is a great target for the avs looking to repeat with minute eating, low salary, and playoff style. Only makes sense if the Avs flip Girard (seperate trade) and theres no retention, its already a low salary and Habs could easily find a trade that doesnt retain for 2 years. Theres really no point in arguing values on here, but getting JE for 2 playoff runs probably cost more than a first too.

Thread: The elephant in the room

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyIsMyPassion61</b></div><div>It is a joke, Basically anyone can score 100 points in the QHL What's so special about Kidney doing it? Doesn't mean it will translate well in the NHL or even the AHL. Most players that play in the Q can't score half as much by the time they get to the AHL or NHL. let's see kidney score 100 points with Laval not going to happen so it means absolutely nothing.</div></div>

Breaking new.. its harder to score in the nhl as opposed to the chl. Virtually the same number of 100 point getters this season in the ohl too, so your knock on the Q is just dumb. That aside you tried to make your point by comparing mantha to kidney based on chl production as if it was a knock on value, again mantha being a good player kinda negated the point you tried to make.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyIsMyPassion61</b></div><div>:laugh Wow dude imagine scoring 100 points in the Q at age 19 Mantha scored 120 points in the Q at age 19 it's not hard to score 100 points in that league.

Sorry but Kidney and Ylonen are nowhere near getting you Sebastian Cossa he basically cost us a 1st+2nd+4th round pick to move down to acquire him. Sorry but Kidney and Ylonen don't have that kind of value.</div></div>

I dont get the joke... you are knocking kidneys value and ability based on similiar production to that of a guy who was easily one of detroits top players for years... say what you will about your opinions on the trade, but maybe work on your slandering of players abit more 😂

Thread: Getting PLD

I do not know the rule on this but this concept only works if you can add trade protection to an offer sheet. Otherwise the habs dont gain any advantage or leverage. Before people state PLD is a trash human for wanting out lets remember how toxic the jets locker room is reported to be by even jets writers, they seem to have a knack for driving talented players away.

Thread: Buh bye

Habs would take the trade, alot lines up in it for them id they can get a long term extension from Dubois. The cap hits would both be around 8mill, Dubois can c/lw and has size, the two nhl players traded with fit a more defensive scheme from the jets new coach. The jets return will be diminished from the public comments, and mailloux is a legitiment 1st round talent so they get 2 firsts in this deal. Also the whole character issues is on both sides.. so thats a wash from that angle too. (Not comparing the character issues, just stating there is issues on both sides.)

Thread: Whats the price

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sagecoll</b></div><div>If you want an indication on value, I wouldn't swap Kakko for Caufield straight up.

Kakko's already a top tier defensive F in the league and massively underutilized at the same time. No idea what the organization thinks of him, but all the talent is still there.</div></div>

This has to be a troll comment, Sagetroll if you will. Im taking the kid with who scored as many goals in one season that kakko has in three years.

Thread: Losing Letang

Probably doesnt work as presented, though you could make the pieces fit. Zucker through his cap hit and poor performance would be little more than cap matching piece in a trade for petry. Habs could use maybe a 2nd or poulin to help laval next year, then add zucker to even out cap hits abit. Habs get futures, and penguins get petry to replace letang without taking cap for other moves.

Zero chance habs grab holl, and help the leafs with cap for a 4th. They also have 4 nhl caliber rd or prospects that holl wouldnt be a big if at all upgrade on. Maybe someone will help you, it wont be montreal.

Thread: Habs And Leafs Fans Would You Do This Trade

The trade just makes no sense on any level, values aside. Habs wouldnt use their limited cap space for this, they have a goalie logjam, already have 7 picks in the first 2 rounds over the next two seasons... oh and wouldnt have any interest in helping the leafs in general. Its a trade that only makes sense for the leafs.

Thread: Oilers Cup contenders

Its a hard sell that the oilers will move 2 1sts in a row, id be interested to know what the conditions of the picks would be ... a top 10 protected 1st usually just rolls to the next year unprotected. If the oilers fell to top 10 in 2022, the 2023 1st is already in the deal and protected.

Thread: Whatcha think

Values are not bad, fans from the teams the jets are trading with may over-value their players and disagree. Might be under-selling stanley too but the habs would accept that 100%.

Thread: Issue with Chiarot

Kinda feels like the whole point of contenders aquiring players at the deadline is missed here. Teams aquire players and pay the required prices based on both need and insurance. Only a few teams need a top 4 defenseman, but every gm in the league wants a capable top 4 guy if an injury happens in the playoffs. Thats why teams will pay for a chiarot type player.. an example the leafs wouldve loved to have paid a first over the last 2 playoffs when muzzin went down and had no capable fill. Just a thought, and for the record i dont think chiarot is worth a first+ , but can see him fetching that.

Thread: Offersheeting Jesperi Kotkaniemi

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Devil1122</b></div><div>Well KK did sign a offersheet</div></div>

The Canes offersheet makes more sense than the Ottawa, theres alot more incentive for KK to go to Carolina like their core being mainly Finnish. The Habs laugh at Ottawa because they have their own more valuable Rfas and are a divisional rival so easy match, the Canes arent in the same situation. The Habs are likely seeing what they can get with the extra picks and if nothing great.. match. Overall not much risk here and just like I wanted more entertainment.
