In 2022 and 2023 Montreal wants to own half of the picks in the first round of each draft. So they'll probably decline this.
Two teams swap players that both want to move at the TDL for picks?

A terrible half-season fully acknowledged, I still can't believe the level of disrespect Petry is getting this year over here.

Wait wut? They do?
I’d take Petry on Detroit any day. Maybe not for Leddy but he’d be a good add in Detroit.
What about something around Hronek instead of Leddy?
He's younger and would fit better in Habs' rebuild. Plus he's a RHD.

Are you sure about that? He has played terribly this year and is 34 years old. He might be closer to done than being a good add to anyone.
Not to mention 6.25 for 3 more years after this one.
But you also have to acknowledge you don’t trade a guy when he’s in the middle of his, “terrible half season”. And if you do pull the trigger, you need to fully expect a lousy return.
if the Habs actually want to trade Petry, Gallagher and Price this season, the Habs should expect to do very poorly in those trades.
big MEH from my point of view, wearing a habs hat. Just woudl liek to add that "can be a solid leader in the room and grow the kids" is not at all what they are reporting here in montreal; they are attributing his bad season to the stress of having to step up as leader or #1D and now even because of mental health issues becaue his wife and kids are in the US right now. Plus he came out and did a few in-game and post-game moves that got folks to question his leadership. That said, maybe he does ok if Detroit has a primary group of leaders
Weird if this comment came from Lebrun who is a regular on RDS and should know the situation.

Why would the Wings trade Hronek for a 34 yr Petry? They aren't competing or anything.

And he was in the Norris conversion last year.
He's almost certainly played injured all season as it just doesn't make sense for him to suddenly forget how to play hockey in the span of what, 3-4 months. Granted, that doesn't mean he has much value at the moment.

Montreal is not doing this. Jeff Petry is going to move either at the deadline or in the offseason for a price far in excess of the current HF consensus. I don't think very many NHL GMs are going to be too concerned that Petry went from a top pair D to completely washed between July and October 2021.

Petry has negative value based on how his play has fallen off a cliff this season . Would be best for Habs to hang on to him and see if he rebounds next year .
I don't blame you for saying that. However, he hasn't slowed down physically. He still skates like the win. Problem is mostly confidence and playing on a bad team decimated by injuries.
Well, if you ignore all his history as a player and only look at this year, sure he has negative value.
Otherwise, I think his value is probably at the lowest right now and agree we should wait the summer or next year to maximize the return.
He's a player I'd be confident betting on to have a bounce back season.
