Value of: Dobson to Montreal

[BigDaddyLurch]

What a dumb post...


Unless you're cool with trading Suzuki for a 1st + B prospect as well I guess?

...cuz you didn't actually read it??...does that make the post dumb??...or...

Maybe you should read better, how is a 1st + a B prospect equivalent to 3/4 1st picks ? The Habs are trying to compete. Also, that's an awful offer.

well that depends, as of now all those picks look to be mid 1sts. nothing really great. and ur not guaranteed a good player in these spots. hell even in NHL25 on easy trading it's tough to get players like Dobson for multiple 1sts.

the offer is missing the meat. would prob need Reinbacher to even consider. the amount of 1sts can obviously lower but needs something valuable. not a collection of mid 1sts

 

[HuGort]

That's ridiculous offer.

Ill take quality over quantity
Matheson only has 1.5 years left......
yeah I dont think ur B level prospects move the needle much.
Reinbacher likely HAS to be part.
bunch of magic beans... whoopie doo

Iol magic beans.
Ok you dont like Matheson? or dont think you would sign him?

Dobson is better than sergachev, but the latter got a top ten prospect, a 2nd round prospect, 2nd rounder and a 7th rounder.

Those forwards in the OP are 2 seconds and a 5th rounder, 2 D prospect are a 1st and a 3rd rounder. Mailloux was expected to be 7-15 before his bad judgement got him in trouble. Even at #31, The difference between Dobson and Sergachev in terms of value is not a first rounder prospect, 3 firsts (unprotected) and 7 additionnal picks in the 2nd to 4th rounder range.

In fact, i dont think the difference between Matheson and Dobson is one first round prospect, 2 2nd rond prospects, 3rd and 5th round prospects, 3 X 1st round picks (unprotected) and 7 additional picks in 2-4rd range.

He has too much term left and not interested in signing him personally. That’s why I’ve been saying Savard if there’s a veteran defenseman who has to come back. Savard is a UFA in July while Matheson is not. Savard is also a cheaper cap hit this year. Mike Matheson is your problem in Montreal for this summer and beyond unless he’s moved somewhere else. Not interested in getting him in hopes he can be moved before his deal is up in the summer of 2026. If we’re going to play that game, Pierre Engvall and his too many more years will look great in Montreal.

The 70 point season was his career year. Now he's back to his 46 point norm.

Forgive me but what's your point?

For starters, how did you figure his "norm" is 46 points? The lowest amount of points he scored was 49 points (only accounting for full seasons where he's played +78 games).

Additionally, "The 70 point season was his career year." yes, thus far, after 3 full seasons (and likely 4th after this year) 70 points has been his career year. I'd say that's very good, no? And if you're suggesting he won't do better than 70 pts, I don't have a crystal ball and won't speak to that - although if he can do it once, I fail to see why he can't do it again.

Easy he has .6ppg average x 80 games =49 points. 216÷364=.6 Actually Dobson only averaging .52ppg this season. Below average season

I didn't say I didn't like Matheson, but he's soon to be UFA for a rebuilding team adding Matheson for 1.5 years and having to either find a taker or extending or losing for nothing isn't really ideal and doesn't move the needle much.

yeah not every trade out there gets what they likely should but that doesn't mean Dobson should be had for less because of other trades.

2nd rounders don't always pan out. Id say making that deal puts all the risk on NYI. will the picks work out? will the prospects work out? all question marks and doesn't really fit what they should be looking for.

offer still seems pretty meh not going to lie.
