Well, i'd trade Hayes for pretty much anything that's good because i don't think he's very good
I classify Eberle as good.To be fair though, it would make our cap situation pretty rough so it's extremely unlikely.
Wow. Who saw that one coming? 
Habs deal arguably their most valuable trade asset and don't end up with a top six center. Interesting.

Darn I figured Drouin would be traded. Too much bad blood and contracts coming up. Wish we had got in on that.

I think he can play in the NHL but would have to play better than he did last season at times. He is not what was hoped but is better than some fringe players. Maybe he gets a fresh start in Vegas?

I'll take Drouin over Sergachev...
Drouin is exactly the kinda player the Habs need...however, if they dont bring back Radulov..i think they are no better than last year. they need more than just Drouin.

Yeah, I know Sergachev is very good prospect, but he played 4 NHL games. Drouin is at least 50-point winger with potential for more, 2015-2016 P-O he was beast.

The Sharks have no interest in Nash. He doesn't fit their needs at all.
I don't know who penned this fable, but it's a fable.
Is it though?
I don't think JD produces as much in Montreal as he did in Tampa. I think Yzerman did well to get back a stud D who still has 3 years of ELC salary left + more when they've been shopping Drouin forever.

Its hard to say for sure at this point because only Drouin has played in the NHL. Tampa traded the #3 overall pick from 2013 for #9 overall pick in 2016. After last years playoffs people were talking about Drouin like he would replace Stamkos as Tampas best forward.

Nope I agree with you
Drouin is going to be a consistent 60+ point player who is spectacular on offense
Sergachev is an unknown at this point. A good prospect but still no idea how he will play in the NHL

I think I might be the only one who believes a trade for Nate is completely feasible.

You can't trade Stepan to Montreal without a monster return now. You can't give them a big piece and potentially face them in the playoffs without addressing more than one need.
We don't need a wing and we don't need another iffy center. We need a center if we ship out Stepan and we badly need a right d. Don't see how Montreal helps in either department.

This is a bad hockey team.
As long as Skjei isn't involved. He has much higher upside than I originally thought.
