Two players in need of change of scenery and two organizations in dumps. Both players are RFA's at conclusion of season

Looks fine to me.

 

[GUY 10]

Looks fine to me.

Looks like fair value, but need to even up the cap differential. How about Habs add Kulak (LD @ $1.8m) and Hawks add Mitchell (RD @ $.925m)?

No, not trading Mitchell in a deal like that.

 

[GUY 10]

No, not trading Mitchell in a deal like that.

how about Beaudin then?

 

[Habsrule]

Deal from a Habs point of view.

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

how about Beaudin then?

Nope. Same as Mitchell. I'd rather use them in a package for an actual NHL player, maybe a pending RFA that may want out.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

how about Beaudin then?

No we aren't giving away Beaudin

How about Gus? I am sure Hab fans would love to see a return of legend

 

[GUY 10]

No we aren't giving away Beaudin

As bad as Gus was as a Hab, it fits the cap differential. DEAL !,.
I’ll have my guy call your guy in the morning.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Sign me up. Fax it in

 

[RationalExpectations]

As a Habs fan, I'd do this, would not expect much from Strome but they need Center depth and if he rebounds MTL can keep him or sell him at the deadline.

 

[Archijerej]

This is ok in terms of value, but it's a no from this Habs fan. I firmly believe that a guy like Lehkonen is worth retaining long-term at below $3M, compared to several other of our higher paid wingers. Also, with Strome we must be building the slowest center line in the league. We currently have Suzuki - Dvorak - Evans and we need a spot for Poehling next year. Strome is not a need.

This looks alright to me , except for the part that Lekhonen needs a change of scenery. I havent heard anything like that

 

[CanadienShark]

Seems pretty fair to me. Strome isn't exciting, but he could surprise and put up some points and become trade bait.

 

[TheDachKnight]

Not a fan of Lehkonen and Strome offers more upside IMO. This is a no from me and not a particularly hard trade for me to say no to. I admittedly like Strome more than most though.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Yes from the habs

 

[Northernhawk]

It would have to be something like Lehkonen and a 3rd for Strome and a 5th maybe? Strome is two years younger

That’d be a lot better than the OP. I just don’t see much upside in Lehkonen.

your missing wright in that sequence

 

[Stuzchuk]

your missing wright in that sequence

start by finishing bottom 11 & winning the lottery and then we'll talk Wright in your roster... remember that price should be in your lineup pretty soon

 

[The Great Weal]

Done deal

 

[Leon Lucius Black]

I'd give a 6th rounder instead of a 7th if Chicago takes Paquette back as well lol.

I think Strome is worth taking a gamble on for the Habs, but given Ducharme's love affair with Paquette I wouldn't be surprised to see him play Paquette over Strome.
