Probably because his dad is there, they thought they could convince him to stay.

I'm like are you kidding me? He's assistant coach for Manitoba Moose, who cares? They probably still rarely see each other with road trips, etc.

Price and Gallagher are my top 2 hopefuls for being traded but I’ll be more than happy if we were to see Hoffman, Armia or Drouin gone

I think we could probably get some sort of value for any other contract we have

Well, we would be losing out on a 24 yo C with the same upside as Suzuki who WANTS to play for us.

If you’re not willing to trade any prospect or a 1st, there’s no point in even discussing PLD as you are clearly devaluing his obvious worth.

Excuse me? Suzuki wants to play for Jets?

Don't think so, dude. Suzuki is a Canadiens. Signed long-term already, a playoff beast, and someone who has improved every year.

Also, this isn't your board.

Complain to Pat Brisson, not us. Also fixing that locker room would probably help enticing young players.

I think most people who say wait two years also mean if the Habs never get him, they are not losing much.

Personally I would not want to trade a 1st for PLD or any prospect the Habs feel has a future in the organization. But if they made a vet for vet trade and added a mid-round pick or an out of favor prospect I'd be ok with that.

How are they not losing much? Dvorak stinks and there’s only longshots as centres in the system. We are talking about a 6’3 60 point centre that is motivated to play for the team. I wouldn’t want to face him and Playoff King Suzuki in a 7 game series.

Has Incarcerated Bob ever gotten anything right?
I mean that seriously, as I do not know. Has he proven himself to be a connected insider?

Multiple times.....but I'm not sure he's calling that he know something cause that tweet came with a retweet showing Habs added cap space while talking about getting some flexibility.
 
The way I see it we don’t need Dubois at all right now, not a good fit. He’ll cost way too much and HuGo will have an opportunity to draft a #1 center in 2023. Dach could also surprise in the next two years so I’d rather wait and see what we got before trading for Dubois, I think we can afford to be patient.

Keep him as a plan B in case things don‘t go as planned, if he really wants to play here he can wait 2 more years.

It depends which Dubois shows up, he was brutal in the 2021 playoffs.

I would have consider Pionk a young NHLer with potential to be fair, not just an OK prospect....he was a young NHLer who was doing quite well already for a D-men. One and half season under the belt, 23 years old and producing offensively.....more than Romanov did practically at the same age for perspective.

14 points in 28 games
26 points in 73 games

Well, yeah, Pionk was/is an offensive player and Romanov is not. But, Pionk improved his defensive game a lot, and added some physicality.

Most originally thought it was a bad deal because Pionk was not considered a good asset, but he grew into a role and developed really well.

The trade looks better in hindsight because of that development, but at the time it was heavily criticized as, "that's it."

He wasn't considered a top prospect for NYR.
