Value of: MTL/NYI (Horvat) - MTL/LAK (Danault)

You don't trade away 1C
We also feel bad, benefiting from such an favorable offer.
I can't bring myself to trade a 3C for a 1C, i care to much about you guys.
You don’t trade away a 1C who is entering his prime on a sweet long term contract. That is fo shizzle home fry!
 
Suzuki was a key to Habs cup run a few years back and thanks to suze, the Habs rebuild accelerated this season.

Byfield has done fuxk all! An average 2C.

If Kings had Suzuki, you would have made it past the Oilers! ;)
20-21 Finals
Danault leaves

3 seasons missed playoffs
1 win this year in the playoffs

Suzuki hasn't been up to much since Danault left.

Habs were rebuilding. And accomplished as much as the Kings who have done squat since then. And now Kings may have to rebuild due to failure after failure… or relocate.

So he's on about the same pace as Kempe.
So, like one of your best players, while being the top defensive (or one of the top) forwards on his team, and all of that equals not doing much...? I asked you to define what you think "not doing a whole lot" is, but you seem to avoid the question. Why is that?

A 30 goal season, with 89 points this year, makes him 14th in the league in points, and 6th most points by a centre. And somehow that equates to "not doing a whole lot". So, what is your standard then?

BTW, Adrian Kempe was the Kings top offensive producer with 73 points this year.

Why would the King's relocate? They're close to overtaking Montreal in earned revenue. Quite possible for the King's to catch them this season.

Yup, both teams are Playoff Pretenders. Got us there.

One Playoff win in 4 years isn't doing much.

I don't think he realized how good a year Suzuki had so now he's like damn lmao resorted to the playoff argument

One team is desperately trying to compete (Kings) while the other is near the end of a successful rebuild (Habs).

Pretenders = Kings in this scenario.

Once the Kings hit the skids this year, the revenues will plummet as is what happens with all fair weathered fan bases. Meanwhile, in the middle of a rebuild and losing seasons, the Habs sell out the Bell Center.

Yup, one franchise may be in dire straits soon. But i am pulling for the Kings to hang in there.

Suzuki is just a mid to low end 1C that produces like other top six players like Kempe. If King's are trading Byfield it's Byfield+ for a large upgrade not Suzuki. Also points are not the end all measurement with how large an impact a player has.

Edit: Suzuki racked up a bunch of points on a bad team. Great!

If Suzuki is a mid to low end 1C, why did he produce Top 6 points as a C?

Using math and logic, you would equate Suzuki as a top tier centerman based on his production along. And that's ignoring the fact that he is an excellent two-way C.

Kempe meanwhile is a winger. Maybe you didn't know that? But yeah, why compare a winger to a 1C? Do you know understand the different forward positions in Hockey?

Just in case:

The C is a skater that plays between two wingers. Each winger is assigned a side, referred as Left Side or Right Side winger. For short we say Left Wing or Right Wing. C is a challenging position to play as it requires defensive awareness. Whereas, a player like Kempe can be one-dimensional and absolutely suck in his own zone. Not saying he sucks. But just saying. ;)

Man, palm tree hockey markets are not very knowledgeable. ;

the hell are you talking about? Habs went to the finals in 2021 and started the rebuild right after. It has been 4 years and our rebuild is much more far along then others that have been rebuilding for years and years.

You understand that Montreal has been rebuilding and has just as many playoff series wins in the last 4 years as the Kings, who are trying to compete...

But we're talking about your statement regarding Suzuki "not doing much" since Danault left, which I've shown you to be false, and now you're changing the subject.

Just take the "L" dude because you're making yourself look foolish now.

I was not aware Kempe paced for 89 points this year? Or are we going to say that 16 points isn’t that big of a deal over a full season?

Edit: Kings haven’t had a single PPG (82 points +) player since 2017-2018. No wonder he’s salty

You missed the times Kempe actually took shifts on defense this year. Looks like you don't know what you're talking about.

Suzuki has done great at the regular season. He should get a participation award.

Repeat after me, The regular season doesn't matter.

Anyways, still not trading Byfield for Suzuki. It's fine. Y'all like him, feel free to keep him.

Ignoring the stupidity re: Kempe and Kings lack of plaoff success…. If Suzuki was available, Kings would offer up the lesser Byfield and runaway laughing. Luckily Hughes is not an idiot.

Byfield may not even end up a C. He played alot of wing with the Kings.

And a reminder that Wing is a forward position that is not a C. much like kempe!
 
I see we have gotten to the point like all Montreal trade threads where Habs fans start insulting the other teams fans, players, geographical location and team history. Never change HF, never change.

Yes, the King's had a great regular season, but a bad season overall because they flamed out in the first round. That 105 point regular season doesn't mean a lot now.

We may see Kempe tried at C in the not too distant future. He's not there because his speed & scoring off the rush is more important for the team. He is very good at tradition defense. May have been covering for Kopi there most of the year because Kopi is slowing down.

Byfield may not end up at center? It's clear you don't watch King's games & haven't kept up with Byfield's progression through the year.

You said Suzuki put up points on a bad team but the Kings and Montreal both lost in round 1. Does that make the Kings bad too?
