HF Habs: Trade Proposal Thread #88: 2024-25 Season

[sampollock]

I'd call for Trouba personally. He's not the best dman around but he's a big physical RH dman with lot of experience. Price would need to be near 0 though and Anderson would probably need to go the other way.

they need a centre way more than a old d man

He'd also want to waive to come here, which he almost certainly isn't

They also need a top 4 RHD. Savard has been pretty mediocre this year.

I dont know what to make of Trouba. When i watch him play, I like his game and think he is solid. But the way hockey fans talk about him, you'd think he's trash defensively.

I dont know.

ya... true
Just the centre position drives me nuts for years ( don't mention BT)

 

[Kosseca]

Habs need a centre. that is where KH should be hunting.
they have lot's of picks and prospects. Hunt KH "sound the horn"

To be honest, CLB has a lot a player that can play C, young ones, but a few. May be worth trying to get one from them.

Savard is pretty much done. Barron and Mailloux are not good defensively and can't eat hard minutes. Reinbacher has 11 games played on NA ice and will have missed most of this season anyway.

A defensive minute eating RHD is the biggest hole right now. Not sure Trouba is the guy to fill it thought.

The center depth might not be contender quality, but only Dach is struggling on it and that's much easier to manage for the team.

Im missing something, since when Savard was a top 4?

Do you mean in future seasons or this one?

Having Suzuki and three 4Cs is a big contributor to how poorly this team has performed. A lot of what people have blamed on young defenceman or a “bad” system is a symptom of being extremely weak in the middle of the ice.

Evans isn’t struggling by his own standards but there’s absolutely no way he should be anywhere near the top-6. Dvorak is hardly an NHL player most nights and is on our third line. Dach has been ineffective no matter where he’s played. Condotta isn’t an NHL player. There are maybe five other NHL teams with comparable or worse center lines.

I have more faith in Guhle/Matheson and Savard at RD than whatever we’re trying to pass off as capable centers this season. I’d rather Savard and Hutson on the second pairing than Evans/Dvorak on the second line.

Medium/long term though? Yeah, we need some better options for two-way RD.

 

[HuGort]

Struble + CGY 1st, next we draft Schaefer, then we trade two of Matheson, Barron, Mailloux for a hard worker in front.

I pass on that idea. Jiricek is another Rasmus Ristolainen to me. Keep that Calgary pick. Good chance it's Desnoyers or Spence.

Schaefer will go first overall, slim chance we get that pick. I am looking at drafting between 5-10, and 14-15th.

He played that role for us the last two seasons and was okayish in the context of a rebuilding team. This season though he is less than okayish it doesn't work anymore.

I wonder how attached they are to that Lindstrom fella. I don't know if you've heard, but he's had an owie back and perhaps they're questioning that pick now...

Fair enough

 

[Ozmodiar]

Didn’t this guy get something right recently?

I think he got something Laine related right. Maybe the injury length or him getting traded here to begin with.

I doubt it.

I was thinking more about Sillinger or Johnson. I dont see them moving Lindstrom anytime soon.

Weber was clearly a notch above but reminds me of the discourse when we got him

There are a few spoof account with the same/similar username, the difference is the amount of "r". I don't remember how many the "legit" one has.

Saying that, this post looks to be something made up after Chris Johnson said Habs were on Jiricek (with 6 other teams).

Here’s a hint: each one of those accounts is made up nonsense.

Well just goes to show you that Sean Avery is as f***ing stupid as we all remember. Kakko isn’t a centre, so losing the faceoff should be expected. And that goal was a bad angle goal, it shouldn’t have gone in. I assume he’s just trolling.

Was he available before? Well outside the imagination of the press and fans?
