Roster/Rumors/Speculation/Trade Talk - 2024-25: Re-Tool, Re-Group, Re-Mix, Re-Build

I like Maclean but imo he isnt that fast of a skater . I had Foudy pegged as someone that makes the team over Fasching if Roy thinks his speed will help cause chaos on the 4th line . I know theres the whole right hand shot / left hand shot angle to consider as well .

Under that theory, you would think Roy would have stuck with Gauthier. But he was quickly in the doghouse and never to be heard from again in 2024 (so far).

maybe the margin was paper thin choosing between Fasching and Gauthier when the time was required to send one down .

From an unreliable rumor site if you're interested in speculation fun...
Dobson/Lee for Caufield/Matheson/Reinbacher and 25' 1st.

I wouldn't be so quick to shoot this trade down.

I’m hopeful that Roy gives Gauthier a clean slate this camp.

If they really cant have Sorokin ready in a week then yeah its time to panic

Hogberg hold down the fort

Have you seen Montreal fans? They’d remove both young players, add in Gallagher and some guy who’s barely a fringe minor leaguer while claiming the 1st is enough to offset the cap dump that is Brendan Gallagher.

I wouldn't even dare give up Dobson for Caufield, we badly need puck movers on defense.

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

lol no thanks x 1000 to that proposal

I'm sure it's bullshit, but I think it's actually a pretty good deal.

We need to see less of the number on the back of Dobson’s jersey as he gets turned inside out in the D zone or the bloom is gonna come off his rose real fast.

Come on, it's not 1 for 1

All the pieces on both sides are legit assets

Matheson had 61 points last year and carry the puck just fine

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

That is the type of move that allows you options on the fly. What is Caufield’s AAV?

The 2025 first being added to Matheson AND Reinbacher is really what moves the needle for me.
