HF Habs: Trade Proposal Thread #85 - Offseason Editon

[BLONG7]

god forbid we have players that CARE

If Gally CARED, he would never had signed that god awful contract.....LOL
The poor guy is the little engine, that used to..............he is basically done, and has been since his mega deal has started. Worst contract in the league....

 

[RealityBytes]

I'm certain Gallagher would be glad to get out of here right now.

4 more years of our media and fan base, considering his contract and poor play? Yikes.

Not really. No other team will pick him and his salary up and no other team will play him.

He will most likely end up being Montreal's version of Joffrey Lupul.

 

[Guy Larose]

Askarov >> Reinbacher

Oh look, it's the Habs hater that always poses as a Hab fan every season. Bad take as usual.

 

[Kimota]

No. Couturier is more broken, with MUCH more term (seven years, not six) and a higher cap hit, and almost the same age as Brendan.

Having Couturier on the books for Suzuki money and Suzuki term is way too risky.

Shawn signed for 8 years in August 2021. So there are 6 years left. While Gally has 4.

 

[Vachon23]

I would be ready to offer a big package if Askarov is available

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Like what kind of package.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

No way. 2nds and a prospect at most.

Shawn signed for 8 years in August 2021. So there are 6 years left. While Gally has 4.

But the contract didn’t start until last season so there is indeed 7 left.

Sorry, Reinbacher is the next Bobby Orr

 

[Destopcorner]

Like what kind of package.

Would gladly give 2 of our D prospects except DR Mailloux Hutson... Something like Engstrom and Barron which frankly, we wouldn't miss on the long run having a number one like Askarov. Would even add picks if I have too.

 

[VirginiaMtlExpat]

So, which team is going to trade us a first-rounder and an overpaid boat anchor to sign Patrick Kane? I need to find out for my fantasy teams, many of which drafted Kane.

 

[VirginiaMtlExpat]

Gallagher will sooner die than accept the LTIR fate.

Just a flesh wound.

 

[BaseballCoach]

Shawn signed for 8 years in August 2021. So there are 6 years left. While Gally has 4.

But didn't Sean sign a year early?

Hockeydb shows his contract ending 2030.

 

[Weltschmerz]

He signed in 2021 but had a year left on his old contract, the new one started in 2022.

Anyway he has a full NMC so it's not happening.

 

[Scriptor]

What was the joke of a trade? Gallagher fo rSean Couturier?

Any day!

7,75M fits right into our Cap structure and Couturier is a near PPG, two way C.

Don't like back problems, but, if Couturier falls on LTIR and takes a flight to Robidas Island along the way, the impact on the Cap becomes little to none.

Plus, what did we lose by giving up Gallagher?

If he can play to his level, though, this transforms the team.

Caufield - Suzuki - Dach
Slafkovsky - Couturier - Monahan
Heineman/Roy - Newhook - Anderson
RHP - Dvorak - Ylonen

Pezzetta, Evans, Pearson, Armia

We're back to my ideal situation, with two legitimate top-6 Cs playing on each of the top two lines. The lineup becomes insulated against injuries to the C-Line.

7yrs…..contract ends in 2030

1. 23-24
2. 24-25
3. 25-26
4. 26-27
5. 27-28
6. 28-29
7. 29-30

Dammit!

 

[Habs Halifax]

What would we get from Tampa if we trade them Allen but we take on Seabrook's contract? It expires this year and it actually gives us more cap space with both Price and Seabrook on LTIR (after the season).

How does it work if Tampa puts Seabrook on LTIR before the season and then he is traded? Do we have to take on the same accruement factor or are we able to reset it with a new team?

 

[sampollock]

I applaud the Canadian because Joel Armia has no heart, desire or passion for the game. I have the impression that he is a guy who plays hockey because he has the size and the tools, but I don't think he likes it. Personally, I don't even know how he looks in the mirror after a day's work. If I were in his place, I would donate half of my salary to the Montreal Canadiens foundation or a charity offering. In any case, congratulations to the Canadians! » -Tony Marinaro

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

i would be interested in Boqvist depending on the asking price

 

[sampollock]

Habs need scoring forwards

 

[WeThreeKings]

Boqvist would be great but there's no point really.. Mailloux and Hutson are coming.

 

[salbutera]

Boqvist would be great but there's no point really.. Mailloux and Hutson are coming.

But they’re not here now, with no guaranteed NHL timeline

HuGo have been constantly doubling down on MSL “hockey development whisperer”, that could become a business all into its own - Boqvist deal made with hockey ops evaluation being he can be quickly developed under MSL, thus creating a good situation to be in: trade him or package prospects to acquire a missing element.

Creating options…

Id do something around Boqvist and Monahan

Columbus are still retooling, trading for an UFA wouldn't make sense for them. I would guess they're looking for a early-mid 20's forward locked up for a while. Granted they did go all in on free agents this summer and are trying to compete. I don't see how their D factor into our situation though, since we already lack spots. Boqvist is kind of what we're trying to get out of Norlinder and Barron so he would be a good buy low candidate. But if we trade for Boqvist we have to have something for a Barron trade lined up.
