Proposal: Jeff Petry, anyone?

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

I’d assume that is the benefit for PIT and the benefit for Montreal tbh.

What do you expect the return is for Petry?

3 years left for Petry, His last 4 seasons in Montreal he's put up 40+ points. So i'd say a 2022 1st round pick+2023 2nd round pick and a B prospect and that's at minimal. Probably another piece added to that.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Before we did the re-jigging on defence I would have loved to have gotten Petry on the Canes as a Dougie replacement but now there’s just no spot and money for that. Plus I doubt MTL ever trades with Carolina

 

[Gaud]

Petry is playing injured. I dont know why teh Habs would trade him unless they are doing a full on rebuild

 

[Junohockeyfan]

If I could turn around and move Petry for less of a contract, I would but I wouldn't expect that.

You can get high value for Petry in a trade. Meanwhile no team would take the nuclear waste known as Vlasic! LOL

 

[Sasha Orlov]

its gonna be VERY hard to get any team to accept that contract!

yeah $6.25M is horrible for a #1D lmfao get real

 

[Canadienna]

I'm really surprised there's not more teams interested. Of course his contract will get worse as time goes on, but it's not like he's making 8 or 9m.

A top pairing 40+ point puck moving dman even in his thirties should get some interest.

Not trying to overhype his value. If no one wants him no one wants him I just don't get why.

 

[TheNewEra]

Petry would be a good fit in Ottawa, unfortunately the rising salary in his contract+being paid bonuses means sens wont be involved

Of course there'd be interest around the league. We are on HF, so people know shit about other team players and they love to hate on Montreal so.

 

[Just Linda]

Why trade him? He was terrific in the playoffs, what happened?

He got his hand caught in the camera hole. He's admittedly still playing injured from that incident which is causing him to have a tough start of the season. He's also not doing well as a PP1 guy which he just started doing this year.

If Montreal is willing to do Petry for Zaitsev, I think that's something Ottawa should do...

 

[Canadienna]

Better yet, they should try Petry for McDavid if Edmonton is willing to do it.

 

[Frank Drebin]

42 pts in 55 games last year, cap dump this year.

I come here to learn about hockey and hockey players.

Petry will atleast cost a 1st if not a 1st+b prospect

if the Sens want montreal to take Zaistev back the sens would need to add a top prospect considering the contract dump and rival team which wouldnt be worth it

Now if the sens can find a way to dump zaistev for a B level prospect to another team then it would make a trade for petry semi realistic from an ottawa pov

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Petry is a good dman offensively

but right now hes playing injured and Petry is not fit to play as a #1 d-man and it shows. He would be good behind a real #1 and he would do his things offensively.

But he can't be the main piece of a defensive roster. Even tho Weber was slowing in the last 2 years , Petry used Weber to play behind him and shine.

He's that kind of d-man

 

[BB88]

Imagine a year ago he was a Norris finalist here….

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

33 years old, about to be 34... And still signed for 3 more years after this one?


Ya, nobody is taking that contract on for free. Let alone paying assets for it.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I'd love to have Petry but those mentioning his contract aren't wrong. 4 years left and he turns 34 in a month. There won't be a big market for that. If we could indeed turn Ceci and additional assets into Petry retained I'd be all over that but realistically Montreal isn't going to retain enough or anything.

 

[Stuzchuk]

Why trade him? He was terrific in the playoffs, what happened?

he was 2RHD... it's easier to be better when you have S.Weber on your team
he was the lone RHD on the Oilers and suck balls and swallowed... the same scenario applies this year for him in Montreal

They can still get a good asset or two but will require retention or eating a bad contract so a team can afford to take the contract.

 

[Scintillating10]

What do you expect the return is for Petry?

Probably a first and short term bad contrsct back

 

[bashbros32]

Wich team would like to add Jeff Petry and what would you offer?

Ottawa offers 1 Nikita Zaitsev

they play the same position, Zaitsev makes less and his contract is up 1 year sooner!

 

[Gurglesons]

Probably a first and short term bad contrsct back

I don’t see that contract getting a 1st and I love Petry.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

its gonna be VERY hard to get any team to accept that contract!

M-NTC + brutal contract makes him pretty much untradeable at this point. He's closer to being a cap dump than an asset.

6.2 M for a top pairing defenseman is a brutal contract now?

 

[logik47]

If he agrees to waive for Detroit, how about Hronek+good prospect for Petry?

 

[elitepete]

Myers+Sutter+4th for Petry+7th
