Proposal: Montreal/Detroit

[mrinsane]

To Montreal: Tomas Tatar, Jimmy Howard and late round pick 2017

vs

To Detroit: Alexei Emelin, Sven Andrighetto, Mike Condon, 2nd pick 2018 and 3rd pick 2019


Habs POV: They need a guy for the 2nd line and Tatar have a good chemistry with Plekanec in the past and He can play C/W. Howard is the cap dump from Detroit.. and will be a buy out candidate next year.

Detroit POV: They need to getting young in offense so Ghetto could take Tatar's spot along Zetty. Emelin is a 4/5 d-man..and Wings defensive is meh.. Mike Condon could be the perfect guy behind Mrazek cheaper than Howard.

hmm... way too much for tatar methinks.

 

[kingdok]

Terrible for Montreal

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Well if Howard doesn't get taken in the expansion draft by Vegas. He will get bought out next summer and and most likely Jared Coreau takes his spot so no need for Condon. And really no need for Emelin as well Detroit easily declines.

 

[Datsyukian Deke]

Can't say I've ever heard of any those 3 on the Habs, even though at this point, getting rid of Howard for anything would be good.

 

[jacks*]

Just bad for the Habs no matter how you look at it.

Habs are in the same division as the Wings, how have you not heard of Emelin or even Condon?

 

[Positive Vibes]

awful for the habs

 

[Bouboumaster]

Between Price, Condon and Montoya, where is Howard fitting?

 

[Vatican Roulette]

No thanks from Detroit.

They're not Chicago.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Between Price, Condon and Montoya, where is Howard fitting?

Yeah exactly, We're stuck with him for another season or so.

 

[Vatican Roulette]

Condon is dealt in the OP to back up Mrazek apparently.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

I'm trying to understand why Detroit is getting a 2nd RD pick and a 3rd RD pick in the OP if Howard is going to Montreal as a Cap dump.

 

[HisNoodliness]

Hmmmm honestly Condon and Emelin are really of no interest to me. That being said I like a base of Tatar+Howard for a 2nd and a 3rd so yeah I'd be cool with the deal.

 

[Vatican Roulette]

I'm trying to understand why Detroit is getting a 2nd RD pick and a 3rd RD pick in the OP if Howard is going to Montreal as a Cap dump.

Because Tatar is a RFA controlled top 6 left wing making under 3 million a season?

In this proposal, I'd rather just keep both Tatar and Howard.

Wings basically deal Tatar to get rid of Howard. No thanks.

 

[Tatar Shots]

Wings are not trading Tatar to get rid of Howard

 

[TT1]

Habs just traded for Weber so we could contend hard for the next 2-3 years.. so why would we take on a cap dump like Howard (5M+) for the next 3 years?

Makes 0 sense, you should think about your proposals before posting them in the future.

 

[pezcore]

Montreal has 0 cap flexibility whatsoever and have Price - Montoya - Lindgren - Fucale so no need to have Howard in our ranks for 3 years.

As for Detroit, Emelin doesnt help their D that much, picks woundnt help the team for the next 5 years and Andrighetto is not an upgrade on Tatar.

 

[LarKing]

No thanks. Even if Howard is a cap dump, giving up Tatar for spare parts is dumb.

Exactly. Losing Tatar to unload Howard is poor asset management.

Easily pass on OP from Detroit's POV

Good job fellow wings fan lol

 

[General Fanager]

On what planet would The Habs or any other NHL team pay 12 million for their 2 goalies?

Habs pass very very easily

 

[Ingvar]

Swapping Howard for Emelin means we're not winning much in terms of salary, we have no roster spot for Emelin and we're giving away the best player. Why should Detroit do this?

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Howard is literally the last player the Habs should trade for. A goalie making 5+ million a season until 2019?? How are we going to re-sign Price in 2 years? Montreal already has Price and Montoya in the NHL, and Condon, Fucale, and Lindgren (most potential IMO) in the AHL.

Upgrading Andrighetto to Tatar is nice, as is dumping Emelin, but that contract would crush the Habs.

 

[Datsyukian Deke]

Habs are in the same division as the Wings, how have you not heard of Emelin or even Condon?

As often as rosters change, can't say I can take the time to learn where the lesser known, 15 point per year defensemen are at these days.

Good job fellow wings fan lol

Right...I'll make sure to do my own scouting report before each and every game for the middle of the road players they go up against, and since I'm only able to watch the Wings when on Nationally or on the NHL Network, that'll be a piece of cake.
