Confirmed with Link: Monahan traded to Jets for 2024 1st and cond. 3rd in 2027.

[Bacchus1]

I mean I want RHP and Ylonen to get good ice time and they're already losing ice time to useless plugs like Gallagher, Person, and Armia. Do we need another plug winger? I think we need a center.

I could see Pearson getting traded.

 

[StCaufield]

Lol. Right now, the plan is to build. Not to contend. Trading Monahan is proof of that. Players CAN scoff all they want to the prospect of drafting high, their opinion doesn’t carry a lot of weight when HuGo meet with the owner on long term plans.

I never said contend or to make knee jerk moves. Relying fully on drafting is irrational. Every good team has made moves during a rebuild to help it along. You know so our kids can actually have decent players to play with? It actually helps development. Dvorak is the answer though. Players will scoff yes. And they won’t sign when it’s that time. Moral is a thing. This isn’t a contest on what team can get the most draft picks. After all we’ve done so well with drafting forwards right? Hahahah

3 different writers at the Athletic gave this trade an A+ for the Canadiens on this one. I don’t think i’ve ever seen this.

Oh, and I’m quite certain this pick is used to pick up an asset. Would not be surprised to see a defensemen traded with this pick to get a young forward from a team who has too much of them.

Funny I mentioned using picks for an asset or 2 and I got castrated on here today lol what a base

 

[Scotianhab]

Jets have our 2nd round pick so they took a gamble they’d only drop down 15 spots. If they win the cup they will probably only drop 5-7 spots.

Suzuki's reaction to the trade. Kind of funny lol

Someone save him

For added context, the Jesse Pollock character from Bardown is a Jets fan and took the opportunity to throw a barb at Suzuki over the Monahan trade that had happened only half an hour before the livestream. You can tell how much Suzuki is affected by the loss of Monahan. Totally classless, juvenile behavior from clown Jesse.

Could we use some of our picks to get rid of bad contracts like Gallagher or Dvorak? To erase bad contracts equals more money to spend on ufas. It makes room and we could put bad vets behind us. Dvo is not a bad vet in term of attitude but he's bad on the ice. Anderson I'm not sure. Yes he had a bad year but his attitude seems positive.

Yeah, that guy is a jackass. He even has the face to go with it. I actually wonder if he's a Jets moderator as some of them are jackasses too.

The clip from which that still came from, is even sadder.

I fully agree surrounding young players with vets that will help them. Monahan was a perfect example. But Dvorak is the exact opposite. He doesn't help any young player, he's a sub-player, he's barely an nhler. The only thing he does well is winning face-offs. His stats sucks year to year, he is in constant minus stat and on top of this he's injury prone. Not smiling, he seems to be sad being in Mtl.

I prefer giving icetime to a Rocket who deserve a stint in the nhl. A good reward is never a bad message to send.

Nick must have been embarrassed having to answer to that clown.

Suzuki looks like he's having an existential crisis. He's probably aware Coach Bombay is now gonna play him 78 minutes a game.

Meantime, Monty …



It gets better. Even Eddy joined the gang on vacation and he’s ripped AF.

However, nothing beats whatever it is Dvorak thought he was doing:

Or we can walk away from the '24 draft with Cayden lidstrom and Dean Letourneau. Hows that for size down the middle?

That Jesse guy has one of the most punchable faces. Sucker punching is not cool, but I would love to see it on him.

Yes, I would love to sucker punch that face.

Edmundson is absolutely shredded. Makes me ashamed for lacking in the gym this week

 

[Shred]

Dach and Monahan were the guys that glued together what ever depth they had on forward.

Alex Belzile and RHP

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

Hell must have frozen over because most people on the main boards are praising the Habs right now and guess what, Jets fans don't like it. It's not like they got fleeced either -- Monahan is a pretty good player but the fact we're getting some positive attention is just too much to handle for these mental midgets.

Their team is 6th in the league but they'd rather focus on their hatred for the bottom feeding squad that's been living in their heads rent-free since 2021 lmao, too funny.

Read some of the trade comments on their board and they can’t get themselves to admit anything favorable toward Habs fans. Their cop out line: « fans don’t decide trades ».

It’s angering most of them so much that the Jets gave up a 1st rounder that they can’t even appreciate the player coming in to help their team.

I used to cheer for the Jets as an underdog Canadian team but once I saw how petty and vindictive a lot of their fans are, it became a total turnoff. Let them marinate in their own bile.

I always find it instructive to read other teams’ board to gain an alternate perspective to a transaction. There is a large segment of the Jets’ fan base who view their team’s acquisition of Monahan a panic move/ reaction to the Jets losing out on the Lindholm sweepstakes. They see trading a first round draft choice for an often injured, non-dynamic, rental player as an over payment and a clear case of poor asset management.

They are right.

 

[Runner77]

They are right.

It’s not about being right or wrong, that is usually debatable and as reasonable contributors, we can respectfully disagree.

It’s the vitriol and visceral hatred that adds nothing to the conversation. And when it comes to Habs-related content, you already know what you’re getting over there from several opinion leaders.

Back to the trade — glad you like how the Habs fared. I concur.

Noted. But who cares?

There’s no shortage of ‘vitriol and visceral hatred’ affecting the world in much more important areas than hockey. It’s the human condition. People just got to hate. And we have our usual suspects here.

Its just a game.
