Value of: Leafs looking for top 4 rhd, prefer UFA in 2 yrs or less or an upcoming RFA with a low QO

[EquivalentStay]

David Savard Habs may move this deadline. He's out with broken hand now but be back by then. We can retain for a first?

It doesnt matter how much you Habs fans parrot it, Savard isn't getting a first, get real

Just the going rate. He's as good as Chiarot.

 

[kilowatt]

I wonder what Matt Roy would fetch? Kings have Clarke ready to take the next step.

Lol. Chiarot hit and fought which is why he was sought after. Also, it was a terrible trade because he was dump in Florida. Savard of several years ago, yes. Savard currently? No

I wanted him last deadline but you guys were too good to give him up haha.

 

[Crazy Cizikas]

I guess most RHD would be left-handed?? Google says 10% of people are left-handed

That’s not how it works with hockey players. No one care which hand you write with. It’s about shootedness. And that is irrelevant to writedness.

Habs get a first for Savard all day long. He's solid veteran for playoff bound team. Not only Chiarot trade but Savard has returned a first and third before. Habs can retain, we have 13 million in spare caproom.

Is there a Myers joke in here yet? Haven't read it all. If not uhh....Hey what about Myers? RHD? Check! Final year of contract? Check! Top 4? In height!. And the cost? Hoo boy, how aboutta future considerations? Maybe pick one up from Carolina? They like to give them away..

Ilya Samsonov straight up

 

[VaporTrail]

Every time I see this thread I think the low QO is low IQ...Maybe early stages of dyslexia for me...OP, how about a defenseman with a low IQ instead ?

 

[Martin Skoula]

Seth Jones returned two high 1sts + Boqvist who had just been drafted #8oa. As much as I like Seth Jones, it was a terrible trade for Chicago, but it’s an example.

To be fair that deal could have been anything from
12 + 32 + Boqvist for Jones + 32
To
12 + Bedard + Boqvist for Jones + 32

And that’s pretty much the upper limit considering Jones was seen as an upcoming Norris contender just entering his prime.

 

[Pavels Dog]

What would the Leafs give up for Justin Holl?

31 years old, solid veteran RHD. 2 years left after this one.

Late 1st+mid-round pick if Wings retain some salary?

There was no chance chance of the pick that turned out to be #6 (Jiricek) instead being #32. Every Chicago fan knew that was going to be a top 10 pick, and that we were essentially trading three top ten’s for Jones.

Tyler Myers is your man

No we dont but hes a good vet some GMs might value for playoffs so maybe a 2nd

The Canadiens will not receive a first round pick for David Savard.

 

[horner]

So whats out there? Would the Yotes trade Durzi or Dumba?, or the Flames trade Tanev?
As for returns its dollar in for dollar out, we can move Brodie to offset salary. We have prospects like Cowan, Robertson, Minten and picks to include if its a legit top 4 guy on an RFA

Cowan and Minten are not being traded

 

[All Mod Cons]

f*** no. I have nightmares about that guy. My least favourite player to have ever worn the jersey. And by gosh, have we had some doozies.

 

[FerrisRox]

Robertson may be dangled

If Robertson is the "bait" the Maple Leafs will not be acquiring anything of any usefulness at all.

There is no market for an under-sized AHL forward with zero jam to his game an injury history that is longer than he is.

 

[Golden_Jet]

Cowen and Minten are not being traded

What do you expect to give up, for a top 4 D with low QO offer, all teams want that.

 

[Curufinwe]

Look at Walker in Philly with 50% retention come the deadline.

 

[Big Muddy]

There's a surplus of teams with defenders that they'll give up, so this should be pretty easy.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Jeremy Bracco. Or Nick Robertson. Same exorbitant value.

 

[Scintillating10]

The Canadiens will not receive a first round pick for David Savard.

We always did in past. Savard @50% retain is worth a first all day long.

Same as Monahan, get a first for each. Monahan playing his career best hockey. Habs might get an extra first for him. Where he is on dirt cheap contract.

Montreal swimming in extra caproom. Open to taking on bad contract for a first also. If team like Toronto or Edmonton want to move bad contract

There's an argument for Monahan if he keeps playing how he has but no shot whatsoever Savard is getting a first unless we're also eating a bad contract in return. Chiarot getting one only to do a whole lot of nothing for Florida is very likely why teams won't make that mistake away.

Don't get me wrong, we'll still get good value but getting a 1st is a pipedream barring another desperate GM vastly overvaluing the player they're getting.
