Post-Game Talk: TRADE DEADLINE 2024

wethree is right... habs are quiet

That return for Guentzel is f***ing awful

Penguins are going to be a bottom feeder for a very long time starting within the next couple years.

He was obvious at the start of the year they'd be quiet at the deadline....

The only thing they might do is potentially a hockey trade in Harris dealt.

Who is this magic made up ufa rhd that is signing with the habs this summer to replace Savard again?

Wrong way to look at this imo.

Our window is Suzuki and Caufield contract. (6 and 7 next years)

Savard is a valuable pieces now but he won't be for the duration of this window. Matheson will be, for example.

It would be dupe to not consider trading Savard. It has nothing to do with replacing him, Guhle is playing RD and Reinbacher will be here rather sooner than later.

I agree and recognise every benefit Savard brings. I don't see any upside in trading him for 2nd RD picks or B assets. But if a team unfolds his 1st, it would be criminal to not let him go in the name of mentorship. (Or a piece that will help during that 6-7 years window)

Why would the Bruins trade him? Right now, they have a potent 1-2 punch between the pipes. Ullmark beat the Leafs on Monday and Swayman beat them on Thursday.

To bring in assets to complete other deals, according to rumours guys.

Agree that it would be special if they traded him, and if they do, its gonna be for win-now impact pieces elsewhere in their line-up

Dubois already on the move? Very telling.

 

[Colezuki]

Dubois already on the move? Very telling.

Wonder if they’ll take dvo and the wpg 1st

Dubois has 6 more points than Jake Evans. Let that sink in.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Today is the Day! We get to find out if HuGo's strategy of keeping 3 mid goalies on the roster was a masterstroke or pointless this whole time!

Wishing we could be a fly on the wall today, to hear the discussions, about not just today, but this upcoming draft/summer and where they feel they want to go and with whom.

As you say, if his price on Savard gets met, you have to deal him........................very unlikely though.
This time next year, different story.

My understanding is there is a price for him (prob a 1st or prospect?).

I just find the “all they have to do is sign a vet rhd” comments quite convenient and “hand-wavy”

Making 8.5M LOL
Ahhh, those Kings!! Nice going Bergy!

Obviously something wrong with that guy.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Probably posted, but...

 

[jrom]

If a core group brought Montreal multiple Cups I'd love to have them retire with the team instead of shunting them at the earliest possible convenience.

It’s the Karlsson trade that made no sense.

 

[BLONG7]

Today is the Day! We get to find out if HuGo's strategy of keeping 3 mid goalies on the roster was a masterstroke or pointless this whole time!

Probably pointless, and way too stubborn.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

No duh

He's not good, costs too much AND has another year at this point.

Would be a little surprised if they can to be honest.

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Who wants to bet Crosby makes Bunting a 35 goal scorer next year?

I think Pittsburgh gets similar production from Bunting while adding a bunch of interesting futures.

 

[Jaynki]

Oh, totally agree on this one.

 

[StCaufield]

It's also nice to see that you can get banned from this site and just come back under another name, and even admit to it lol

If you admit to it you’ll be banned again. It happened to a friend a couple of years ago. Maybe @MarkovsKnee can clarify

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Obviously something wrong with that guy.

It's encouraging that Caufield spent all that time partying with him this summer

Probably pointless, and way too stubborn.

I'd have been fine losing Primeau on waivers just to never hear about us keeping 3 goalies up again

 

[Naslundforever]

Dumba? Tanev? Pesce?

Cheers… Hard to believe Dumba has played so many seasons and is only 29

 

[Guy Larose]

Well he did a few days ago and keeps referencing it...and still here, in this very thread.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Unfortunately that's not how sports works and really never has. While coaching and training is great, the player to player interaction and learning from guys who been there/done that is invaluable. The key is to figure out when the young player/group is ready to move on from that and able to take the next step.

Exactly, it's why another Chris Wideman extension is at the top of my to-do list
