Please tell me how a 6’4, 23 years old center who’s carrying a 3.3M cap hit on a rebuilding team is damaging the team as you just said.

Right now his value is far less than what they gave up for him. The question is, if he continues to not perform, how much lower will his value go? Turning a 1st into a 3rd sucks, but is probably not as damaging as, say, turning that 1st into, well, nothing, because if he continues to play like he is he won't even be worth a qualifying offer.

Of course, you have to weigh what you think his chances are of panning out, and what you think his ceiling is.

You can try tuning in for a game, production isn’t quite as good as we’d want… but he’s still our most dangerous forward on a night to high basis. The points will come

And also question why Anaheim fans arnt trying to pawn him off? You never see duck fans wanting to trade zegras.

Dach is in a new thread every week.
Every week. Jeez i can't seem to find them.

Even if he doesn’t pan out, I would rather give him every opportunity to develop his game rather than trade him for a pick that will be 3-5 years away at best and has less than 20% chance of being an NHL, let alone be one that has an impact on a game

Entirely reasonable, though a pick can usually be flipped for a pretty decent roster player. It's not worthless.

Montreal doesnt have a 2C prospect or young player so might as well hope for the best with Dach. Its not like he'll ask for a trade cause his spot is snatched. He'll either develop or more likely be a cody glass.

you really think it's a bad idea to exercise an option which is out of the money? :eek3:

No thank you, even Amadio is better, not to mention cheaper, hard pass
Dach as no chance to be trade for Amadio loool not the same quality of player.

Habs fans are crazy, what did they hope ? A PPG season of Dach after is injury and not playing for a whole year ?

Give the guy some time for god sake. He still a 6’4 center with some interresting tool.

Habs will not trade him for less than a 1st and team would not invest a 1st in him because of the risk is injury carry. Stop proposing some bottom 6 player that will never happen
