Broberg is playing more minutes then Chiarot ATM , so no we are not trading him .. nor a 1st for Ben ..TT is not a necessity either as he's a LW
Proposal: Brendan Gallagher to Oilers

He said Horrible for Edmonton . Which it is . When you are up against the cap you do not spend cap on a winger when you need goalie and a D . I am not sure why fans leave things out that drastically changes the meaning .
Holland isn't trading his first pick he made as the GM of the Oiler . There also no way in hell even dumb ass Chia would make that trade . Montreal can keep Chia and let him rot

Ok so offer up the 2022 1st as the main piece then.
Chiarot is averaging 23 mins a game, Broberg is around 19.5 no?
Either way, Holland is going to make a move, at least 2 of the 3 needs imo.

It's Chiarot + Toffoli for the 1st +
Last couple has been 23-24
We don't need Toffoli.. unless he's a RW that Shoots right
I'd pay a 2nd for Chia
Seems to me like, You only watch the Cup Finals and Gallagher wasn't very good.
A lot of insights really yet again.
Not retaining 50% on Gallagher unless the return is very good. He'll probably end up on LTIR island in a few years anyway.

Let's see Broberg do it for a year at least, why drown the kid this year?
Bring in Chiarot and go for Brown in OTT if you need a RW.
Nurse - Chiarot and a duo of Keith and Broberg on the 3rd pair. That's amazing depth.
Every GM would pay a 2nd for Chiarot but he's a minute muncher who has 50+ games in the playoffs the last 4 years.
Worried about a Cup or the 2022/2023 picks that are 2-3 years away from making the team?
To a point ... We don't need a minute muncher .. he would be on our third pairing here .. yes he's a great player.. does well in the playoffs .. how's he been so far this year in your opinion? From what I've watched this year ( 9 games ish ) .
He looks okay .. worth about a 2nd.

He's on a horrible Habs team, his stats will reflect that, but on a 8-9 goal/17-18pt pace, just like his career average, blocking shots and laying hits while playing 23 mins a night.
It helps spread the the time pie so nobody is red lining and the prospects/older vets get days off if need be.
A 2nd + decent prospect may get it done. But a 1st Ala the Savard deal seems more likely.

The problem with Gallagher by the time the playoffs start he is so broken down the puck dies on is stick.
You can have him for 2x 2nd picks

We also probably heard it here only. The Habs won't be offer sheeting anyone while they are fighting it out for top 5 picks.

Broberg looks better on an NHL ice than Chairot does, you guys need to get over the idea that you are getting an NHL ready prospect for him. You'll be lucky to get a 2nd for him given the other defensemen that could be out there at the deadline. I can't wait for the "Confirmed: Chairot for 4th" trade thread.
Holland has said repeatedly he will not trade a 1st unless the player is signed long term . Since Holland got his he picks are getting later and later yet he got .
Broberg that everyone seems to want . He should end up better then Bouchard
Holloway took off his D +1 should take over the 3rd line C job with the ability to jump up and play wing
Bourault who is leading the Q in scoring should let us move Yamamoto lower in the line
All very promising prospects . With his drafting i don't blame him for holding that first close

All 4 games he's looked better? All 4 of em?
Not even a Habs fan, just know Chiarot will get closer to a 1st/2nd+ than a 4th round pick by stat watching.
Just using Savard as a comparable for what he got.
Broberg + Bouchard have no playoff experience.
Ceci has 36 games, Barrie has 30.
Keith has 135.
Gonna need a vet D there to help those kids, would not waste another year worrying about a 1st or 2nd years away from adding to the team.
4 year window.

As long you have Mcdavid and Draisailt scoring 4 points together each game , I still think the Oilers will be okay either way.
Gally is a leader and heart and sole player for the Habs. If we trade him, we are not retaining anything. I don’t blame teams for not trading for him, but Habs are not trading him:

Has any teammate of Gallahger ever said anything bad about him personally? Many people have great things to say about him. I get he is the kind of player opponents hate, but he is a leader on the team.

I think he's a leader when the team is winning. He kicked Subban out of Montreal. His playoff performances in the last years were absymal and didnt show much in terms of leadership. This season he's been sulking because he was not named captain . Now all he does his shake his head when the team gets scored and he's often on the ice. He whine on the ice nonstop , gets ton of penalty for no reasons. He shows pretty terrible leadership compared to Josh Anderson in my opinion. He's great when in a winning team and he's at his best when he positions himself in front of the net which he does less and less nowdays.
Gallahger’s play has deteriorated but so has the whole team’s. IMO he has earned his stripes. He is not as much as a leader as Weber, but he is known as a warrior.
You clearly have no clue. 30 goal scorer, on a low scoring Habs team non the less, with great intangibles at 3.25 from 29 to 35 is horrible? More like a pipe dream for any team
