Savard sucks now. Of course so did Monahan and somehow they hoodwinked the Jets into paying a 1st for him.
He had back issues last year, so who knows how much he has left. But fair warning about Stan, that kind of stuff has never stopped him in the past.Legit or are you just trying to will such a trade into existence?
I used to like him as a player but haven't watched many Chicago games lately. Does he still have anything left in the tank?
He’s someone who can compliment a LHD on the second pair or give you a solid 17-18 minutes on the third pair and PK. Those D, especially RHD have always been valuable around the league.lol he got 30 pts once ; a decade ago . He’s now only a shell of his former defensive self. Which was where his true value lied ; the fact that you’re selling him as some offensive force makes it very difficult to take anything you say seriously . He’s not a good dman anymore . He plays an elevated role in a depleted d corp and doesn’t really handle it all that well .. not worth near a 1 st to me , maybe an incredibly desperate team that misses out on their prime target around the deadline circles back and improves their offer . Deadline deals can be silly sometimes ( see chariot) .
He sucks according to hfboards-o-meter where if you’re not a superstar you suck and are useless.Savard sucks now. Of course so did Monahan and somehow they hoodwinked the Jets into paying a 1st for him.
Trades I have good prediction historyI'm not even gonna question Savards worth being a 1st +. Habs fans on these boards always make the most outrageous valuations of their players at the deadline and somehow they are actually always f***ing right.
Yeah right. Only way I touch Letang if it's a precursor to Crosby signing here.Savard will be redundant once we pick up Letang so don’t wait for the TDL.
If Oil’s first isn’t available I’d take a gamble on Shane Lachance
Post them pleaseTrades I have good prediction history
The RD market is so f***ing awful this year.Savard sucks now. Of course so did Monahan and somehow they hoodwinked the Jets into paying a 1st for him.
In a different division maybe they are in the mix. Unless they upgrade in goal( and d for that matter as it currently isn’t great ; promising for future ) I see them falling short . Overall I like the direction they are headed for what it’s worth . But I think next year is too soon to expect playoffs . Could happen if the stars align , but I think almost everything would need to go right l/avoid injury .I was mostly joking. Habs be in playoff race now with Laine. Most likely.
Probably worse thing could happen to them long term. I was hoping for top 12 pick and being able to deal Savard at deadline. Both not going to happen now
If Oilers are in a position to send away their 1st, that means the season went well despite the backend being questionable. So maybe they work something out with Montreal but I'm not sure if they want to move out from a 2026 1st.
- They don't have a 2025 1st.
- From 2016-2023, they only have 1 out of the 7 1st round picks still with their organization. Moving the 2026 1st should be off the table unless something major goes down.
He's a defensive guy who doesn't defend very well anymore. He reminds me of Cory Sarich his last few years. Lots of effort, blood and guts guy, but the wheels have fallen off and he's not quick to the puck anymore. He's been well over 3 goals against per 60 at ES for the past 3 seasons. His game is gone.He’s someone who can compliment a LHD on the second pair or give you a solid 17-18 minutes on the third pair and PK.

As for Savard, this is a discussion that needs to happen after at the least after training camp but ideally at the TDL. I think we need to see where Reibacher, Mailloux and Barron are progressing before doing anything with Savard.
Haven't heard that name in a long time. I was in the same class as his little sister, Didn't talk much but that's what you expect from a Farm boy. Sadly my family moved before he won the cup and the town had the parade.He's a defensive guy who doesn't defend very well anymore. He reminds me of Cory Sarich his last few years.

NoIs David Savard even better than Codi Ceci?
The RD market is so f***ing awful this year.
It's larsson (won't waive to edmonton)
Savard
Ceci
Ironically, Ceci might be the best possible RD addition edmonton could get at the deadline.
If Calgary wants to cash in this year on Rasmus they'd get a haul
This is correct . And as we just saw what kind of value that he had (Basically zero : I understand retaining some would bump up the value but i think the point is clear ) .
Just cause you say “It’s good deal for Edmonton,” doesn’t make it a good deal. It’s shit.Either now or at deadline. Oilers lost 3 D-men off their roster. Habs have extra D. Reinbacher likely make team at some point this season.
Veteran D like Savard who has a ring at 1.75 million. It's good deal for Edmonton
Don't go overboard. He's sound but isn't a magician. He got a 3d for Allen with 15 months retention, after having 3 goalies for far too long.We can't even laugh at scintillating's proposals anymore because Kent Hughes absolutely fleeces everyone lol
Probably. But deadline prices are always insane.If Edmonton is positioned for another run they can probably get better value for a first.
