Value of: Mason McTavish to Montreal

[Sendhelp2Anaheim]

One very important question:

Why would Anaheim consider trading McTavish? They would then need to find a 2nd line center. They would be in the same boat as the Habs are in now. This rumour, whomever created is, makes no sense whatsoever.

The rumor created is of the mindset

What does Montreal want/need

And the other team is irrelevant

Think the ducks strike a long term deal

As they should.

Dude is going to be menace in the playoffs. I don't see anything on Montreal's roster that would entice Anaheim.

Yup. There's no combination of likely trade assets that makes it worthwhile for Anaheim, unless they know something we don't (ie, bad attitude, bad training habits, lack of commitment, etc.) and that means his value is lower than expected.

Yeah you are definitely more likely to acquire Zegras from Anaheim than McTavish if you are wanting a center. I know some fanbases are lower/higher than others with him but Zegras this season was nearly always on the wing.

Ducks will lock/match, etc as needed and do the same for Carlsson to keep them as their 2 centers of the future

Unless there's something medically wrong, from all reports he's exactly the type of player you want. I think it was one of the coaches that said that he's always studying video. He's probably one of the strongest out of the young guys in the NHL too.

McTavish + for Suzuki

McTavish + for Suzuki

Just as I responded to the OP, I will ask you 1 important question:

Why would Montreal make this trade? It will weaken the very position they are trying to bolster. The goal is to eventually end the rebuild, not extend it.

They wouldn't, just answering OP's question as to what Anaheim would want.
