Sure looks like a perfect complement to Beck doesn’t he…

LW but I think he plays better when he's on the right side which is where he often is on the PP.



Farrell needs to be signed before August 15th, 2024 unless he opts to return for a 5th season, which is a new rule put in place due to covid.

he has no shot at winning unless things change quickly as the regular season ends in 6-7 weeks. I do think he could end up top 3 finalist though, but if not I go to think he makes the final 10.

If our second line is Farrell - Beck - Roy, we might never win that 25th Cup before the rebuild.

I see an amazing 4th line of Farrell - Beck - Heineman, though. before they end up playing higher in the lineup ;)

Farrell does look small on all those highlights. Talented, for sure. Plus, he has the midget seal of approval from CC22!

Or, a 4th line of Farrell - Evans - Heineman if we draft Dvorsky, trade our FLA pick for a young RHD and somehow acquire PLD

Caufield - Suzuki - Dach
Dubois - Beck - Roy
Slafkovsky - Dvorsky - Mesar
Farrell - Evans - Heineman

Plus, we can probably get a better C than Evans from our prospect pool to play with Farrell and Heineman by then...
 
Third line of Farrell - Beck - Heineman is a definite possibility, but to really depends who we draft in 2023 and where they will slot on team depth charts.

If it's Bedard and he ends up as the #1C, Farrell is not gonna be any higher than 3rd line as Caufield - Suzuki - Dach would likely be second line.

If it's Fantilli or Carlsson and they end up being 1st line material, the same reasoning why Farrell can't expect to be better than 3rd line material applies.

If Fantilli/carlsson end up 2nd line material, Slafkovky and Mesar probably ply wing with them and Farrell remains 3rd line material, at best.

Now, one might argue that Farrell is better than a third liner and, if that's the case, I package him with something else for a bonafide, young, established RHD that can play an impact role on a 1st pairing.

I'm not against trading Farrell, if he is such a great prospect, but, then, we should increase our expectations when it comes to the return.

A good hockey trade can include a good player from a position of strength for a good player to fill a position of weakness.

So a C/LW like Farrell, who is, whether we like it or not, smaller in stature, can be moved for a Puck-moving, RHD for our 1st pairing.

Yet, I don't think Farrell, alone, lands that RHD since he has not played in the NHL yet and there will always be doubts about how his talent translates to that level because of the size bias.

Hell, that size bias was going full tilt as early as last season when Caufield had barely scored under Ducharme and it was full tilt when Caufield slipped to 15th OA his draft year.

It's reality and Farrell is a good asset to have. Only, it might end up being as a valuable trade chip too get something we dearly lack.

Hell, he could be a trade chip for Askarov with the Habs looking for a G prospect upgrade with #1G upside. Saros is set for a while as the #1G in Nashville, I believe. Farrell is an interesting add-on to that team's forward prospect depth, no?

No rush to trade the guy. There are injuries every so starting on the 3rd does not mean you stay there all year. Ylonen played first line minutes this year.

Then there’s a possibility he shows he’s more than a third liner

I agree Farrell is an ideal trading chip right now

Beck should not be our targeted 2C. He is not a standout playmaker. He could be our Lars Eller or Nick Bonino in a Cup run.

Roy and Farrell can definitely be projected as possible middle six wingers who contribute offensively and play responsibly.

Elite face-off guy who can shut down anyone while the top 6 rests up a bit - and contribute his 10-15 goals is a real potential nhl job on a contender.

Why everyone want to trade him?

Too small, i guess for some.

Wouldn't trade him before seeing him in the AHL/NHL. I don't think we would get much value in a trade (he may be worth something like a 2nd rounder right now) and if he reaches his ceiling he could be a great top 6 two-way forward.

Would love to see the drama if a rookie like Beck is taking the 2nd line center spot from Dubois. He stated multiple times that he prefer to play center and PLD doesn't seems to have the best attitude. I also think Beck will be a perfect 3rd line center and not a 2nd.

Big braining things. He won't be traded and he will be a key piece of the top 9 for a long time.

Some people here did the same for Caufield lol

Oh! We should use him as a trade chip! Too small anyway!

I think the majority never saw Farrell play, my only explanation to this non-sense. Maybe a package of Farrell + Hutson since we’re at it. Trading our best prospects.

LOL at Mesar ahead of Farrell.

Caufield-Suzuki-Bedard or Dach
Slafkovsky-Dach or 2023 Pick (C)-Anderson
Farrell-Beck-Roy
