Speculation: Montreal deadline sale - make your offers!

[Shark Finn]

1 week into the season and we are making feadline deals already?

Got to stay ahead of the curve. And, you know, there might be GM's reading these and taking notes. We are the real hockey geniuses, after all.

Anderson is one of those guys where GMs will offer something cheeky like a 3rd, but if you retained 1M you get a 1st.

Doubt it. Maybe a 2nd if Montreal retain half. But doubt Hughes trades him. They small team

 

[Number 57]

Is Savard still decent?

He's been great since coming to Montreal. Absolutely no complaint and actually considering re-signing him.

He's better than Kulak, Stetcher, Emberson for sure lol

 

[Anardil]

I don't mind keeping some of them as depth players, especially since aside from Savard they don't have much value. But at the same time, you got Heinman, Kapanen, Demidov, Reinbacher, Roy, Mailloux, Engstrom, Beck, and possibly more in need of full-time spots in the next year.

So, if you gotta clear the dead weight to make space might as well grab a pick during this season

After the first three names, I don't see any NHLers next year, unless they have a 'Kapanen-like' training camp next year.

Savard won't get a first, that ship has sailed, he's actually slower than ever.
A late 2nd for him is what I expect. And it's time to give his spot to younger guys (after the TD).

Armia is a guy I'd see a team paying a 2nd for him, if he has a decent season.

Dvorak? If someone is ready to pay something for him without retention, go!

Evans is a keeper, he's good at what he does, drafted and raised in the organization. Far better than Dvorak at a cheaper price.

Pezzetta we keep. Can't have any better when it comes to a 13th forward.

Lining up to sell already?

Maybe the Habs should just play some more games, first?

It's more about getting pieces that will not be part of our contending team out so we can position ourselves to get the right pieces in.

I don't think it should a whole firesale, but there's a few of those pieces that should go.

And definitely not in October, more like December-March. Unless of course a great offer comes in.
