Since the Habs are hosting the Draft let's try to get some more picks and forget about this year.
Habs : Chariot + Poehling + 4rd 2022
for
Panther : first pick 2023 + 3rd 2022
Habs : Armia + 2rd 2024
for
Blues : First pick 2022
What was your logic in picking the Blues to send Armia? I am genuinely curious, since you are just targeting a first and not one of our players. There are lots of teams you could have targeted for that trade. Why the Blues?
Its definitely a no for me as a Blues fan. We have a really deep forward group this year. Even if we do trade Tarasenko, we are more than 14 deep on NHL forwards. We are more than 9 deep on Top9 players. We have more than 6 top 6 caliber guys. We might not have the high end talent of other teams, but we have depth for days. Armia could be an upgrade on one of them, sure, but we also don't have the cap. We also don't have a great prospect pool to be trading away a first for a a guy we don't have the ice time to give.
