Proposal: Pacioretty to MIN

Just so you know Granlund has basically been moved to wing. In fairness he did perform much better there in the playoffs.

How does this help Minnesota's expansion problems?
7F: Parise, Koivu, Pominville, Coyle, Nino, Granlund, Haula
3D: Suter, Spurgeon, Scandella/Brodin/Dumba
7F: Parise, Koivu, Pominville, Coyle, Nino, Granlund, Haula
3D: Suter, Spurgeon, Scandella/Brodin/Dumba
Curious, Would Minny be willing to add? I think Montreal would be willing to add an exempt piece from Expansion.
Example:
Pacioretty & 1st in 2017
for
Scandella, Granlund & Niederriter

I assume they will have to buy-out Pominville under any scenario.
4F: Parise, Koivu, Coyle, Pacioretty
4D: Suter, Spurgeon, Brodin, Dumba
Absolutely not.
Minnesota has already stated they are going the 7F 3D 1G route.

IMO - I think the 2nd moves to a 1st and Scherback moves to McCarron or Juulsen and Minny has to consider it.

No kidding... This could be a breakout year for a couple young defenders. Our hands could be tied going 6F,4D route
Personally, I like the Top 6 better with Niederriter and Granlund as opposed to Pacioretty and Carr/Andrighetto.

Doesn't fix our expansion problem. We still lose one of dumba, brodin, or spurgeon. Same spot as without the trade. It's not a bad offer but I'd pass
We have enough middle of the line talent, it would be completely backward thinking to trade our best goal scorer for more middle line forward talent and a solid 3-4 D. I understand how this would be a good trade, but the team is clesrly going cup or bust and i dont believe this would provide the immediate impact needed

Now that s a bad trade.
MaxPac is also LW, which is the only position where we actually have players. This leaves wild with ZERO top6 right wingers...
Pacioretty (LW) for Niederreiter (LW) +++
Coyle cant be moved, we won't have a full roster without him. Alternatively ship a top6 RW to wild on 2-3 year contract.
Available assets: Granlund, one of Brodin/Scandella/Dumba, picks, Tuch (RW), Ek, Reilly, Folin, Olofsson, Zucker.
I'm not against moving Pacioretty, but Granlund doesn't do it for me.
Pacioretty +
for
Coyle, Niederreiter, Scandella
is something I could get behind

So, Let me get this straight
MIN fans think they can get Patch whitout giving anything of their 'Untouchable' list, giving away only players that are avalaible? Not happening. You have to give to get and that offer there for 2nd liners and 2nd pairind Ds is not something Habs management will consider. Patch would instantely become MIN best forward.
Coyle + Scandella/Spurgeron + Nino, otherwhise not interested.

Thread's OP is not a Minnesota fan.
And Montreal overvalues Pac, as his numbers will certainly drop going to the Western Conference.
There is no trade to be made here...... move along.

Nope. Minnesota has no interest in getting a LW when they already have Parise. This offer was made by a MTL fan. Patches is a luxury not worth pursuing from a MN perspective.
