No, from Montréal, we will keep the youngest player.

Why is Montreal involved as a 3rd team?
Or why are NYR involved as a 3rd team?
Or why are Kings involved as a 3rd team?

Juraj for Byfield

Who says no?

LA instantly.

 

[Baksfamous112]

I’d trade him for Juraj one for one

Montreal politely decline this offer.

Slafkovsky at 19 and 20 years old is putting up similar seasons than Byfield did at 21 and 22 respectively. I’d rather take my chances on the younger player which still have more time (than Byfield) to develop

They all can't be the third team. Someone has to be first and second.

Byfield and slaf are pretty comparable 1 for 1 and byfield is a slightly cheaper cap hit

Why in the world would the Kings trade the player who is taking the reins from Kopitar? It would need to be an insane overpay for them to do that.

 

[JKG33]

The problem with trading this guy now is, first we already lost several years of Stutzle-level production and a kajillion assets for filling the hole with guys like PLD and Fiala and we can't get that back; and second, he's always been known as needing years before that elite offensive package comes out. In the meantime, he isn't exactly on his way to being a Selke candidate.

So either we keep him on his inflated contract and keep hoping or we send him elsewhere and possibly watch him turn into an all-star that we paid so much for and got 5 cents on the dollar after sacrificing 80% of the franchise's future.

Drafting Byfield over Stutzle, missing out on Eichel because the team didn't want to include Byfield, and then going out and blowing a bunch of assets on PLD, is an all time blunder series of events

Montreal gets the best player here.

Id take Slaf over Byfield (barely), but it's the Rags getting screwed there

He had better start producing more than ~20g/55pts if they plan on him being a Kopitar replacement….
