Proposal: MTL & CAR

[pth2]

This is yet another proposal that works for neither team - Montreal is in no position to be selling off multiple pieces with potential, that fit the timeline for the current core, to improve for the next few years, while they still have 4-5 bad contracts on the books, and Carolina is trying to win now and has no reason to sell a key piece in its prime for a series of unproven kids/picks.

 

[TBF1972]

Svechnikov has had one 30 goal season in 6 years.

and caufield has none. time to put him on waivers.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Ah yes because clearly Carolina is gearing up for a rebuild so they should sell off the best value contract on their roster for futures. Maybe New Jersey will give you Bratt, or Jets will give you Morrissey.

 

[Rob Sense]

Imagine having both

Svech-Dach-Demidov

Just to emphasize what others have said....Just NO.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

I commend you, OP, for creating a proposal which doesn’t make sense for either team.

 

[MoneyManny]

Trading an established player in their prime for picks and prospects just isn't something teams trying to compete do.

Trading picks and prospects for an established player in their prime just isn't something rebuilding teams do.

Caufield has not played 6 years...please learn hockey

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Caufield has not played 6 years...please learn hockey

You should ask the Habs to do that first

 

[TBF1972]

Caufield has not played 6 years...please learn hockey

you guys promised he will score 40+ when he plays 82 games

learn to project hockey

Ah yes because clearly Carolina is gearing up for a rebuild so they should sell off the best value contract on their roster for futures. Maybe New Jersey will give you Bratt, or Jets will give you Morrissey.

how about calgary giving up huberdeau?

 

[Tanknation]

Injury prone 9 mill player while giving up 3 B+ prospects that we need for our rebuild + a 1st? That could be in 11th overall range. Yea sign me up...not.

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Some people need to give up on proposals

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

how about calgary giving up huberdeau?

I get that you are just trying to make a joke here but Huberdeau on his last contract and his production in Florida would probably be on par with my example, maybe even more in the Jason Robertson value + age + term per cap hit range

MTL : Logan Mailloux + CGY first 2025 (around #20) + Owen Beck + Joshua Roy
for
CAR : ANDREI SVECHNIKOV

MTL ; Logan will be a top 4 RHD and Beck a 3rd center + a mid first round pick + a top 6 prospect.
Also get 3 great player cheap on the cap salary.
for
Svechnikov could be our top 6 for years maybe even play with Demidov.
And Carolina could sign Necas

Setting value discussion aside:

Canes: We need size and scoring upfront. We've got Nikishin, Morrow and a number of solid D prospects, and a too many bottom six players; and all of our top F prospects are skilled, but small.

Lockin17: Hey, how about trading your 1 skilled scorer with size for a Defensemen, a bottom sixer and picks/prospects!

 

[Essenege]

Reinbacker isnt proven yet.

No but ELC years are hella valuable for high end prospects.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

No but ELC years are hella valuable for high end prospects.

Sure but he only has 1 left. So it's not like he has that runway to prove himself and also max out ELC value

 

[Baksfamous112]

Imagine having both

Svech-Dach-Demidov

Yeah imagine both together while we completely deplete our depth everywhere. Looks fun.

 

[junyab]

Just from Carolina's viewpoint, how would this improve their competitiveness? I don't think it would.

And from the Habs side it would open up gaps in our rebuild, losing a top 4RHD and middle 6C.

 

[HabsQC]

Funniest thing is that the OP's username is Lockin17, which is what we should be doing with this thread.

Who's making $9M? Svech is $7.75M/yr! Also, no worries about signing you up, 0% Canes fans are even remotely interested in this

 

[therocket9]

Svechnikov has had one 30 goal season in 6 years.

 

[HuGort]

Today's medicine is great , i am not worried about that portion of the deal

Lol. No thanks. That's too much to give up then pay him a ton of money.

 

[Essenege]

Sure but he only has 1 left. So it's not like he has that runway to prove himself and also max out ELC value

2 years but let’s not argue too much, this is a shit trade on both side anyway!!

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Oh my bad, I was looking at Guhle. (Still trying to get used to puckpedia)

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

The habs are not giving up the equivalent of four 1st round picks for a player who is injury prone and as a result will only give you 50-60 pts per season.
