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

[WeThreeKings]

he may be a target, but Cal may not want to let him go now or for what MTL offers.

I certainly would love him

We have their first which might be the trump card if it stays in premium draft territory.

Habs have all the assets to acquire a player of that calibre. I am 100% confident in that. It all depends if a key player in an alternative offer if preferred by Calgary. But the habs have the assets.

If he comes with an extension, I have no issues sending the Calgary 1st, Kapanen and Konyushkov for Andersson.. if they really want to push and go for the CGY 1st and Mailloux, I'd do it with the extension.

I think MTL can make an interesting package for Anderson, I'm still not convince CAL is ready to let him go.

you're bullish on him being a top pairing Dman? Asking because I trust your opinion.

I always see him as the Petry/Hamrlik mould.

He'd an insane add though.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I gotta wonder if we were in on Borgen because we immediately made a trade for an experienced RD once he moved.

I'd prefer him, too.

What is the cost for Matheson? Savoi a 2nd and 3rd enough from the oilers?

I'd take that.

Calgary might not have a choice since Andersson is UFA and might not want to re-sign there.

All depends on whether or not he wants to re-sign there.

Is he a 1? No.. but I think in terms of RD around the league, he's unquestionably a "1" kind of the same way Suzuki is a 1C.

I think having Guhle-Andersson as your top pairing is a very good top pairing to have, especially if Reinbacher hits the median of his potential and is the foil to Lane Hutson.

doesn't he have an extra year after this one??

Extension can't be signed until July 1st as Andersson has another year and the pick the Habs got from Calgary for taking on Monahan will have already been used as Florida isn't likely to finish top 10.

 

[morhilane]

Yes, but Calgary they don't need to wait to know if he wants to re-up after July 1st or once he hits UFA.

They can certainly gauge his interest in extending with the Habs before making any trade.

And if Andersson isn't re-upping, chances are Calgary is shopping him as soon as this season ends.

For an extended Andersson they'd ask for their first back, Mailloux, and then we'd have to keep adding.

Prime-aged RHD capable of playing in a first-pairing, with no injury issues, and that would come with multiple years of team-control? Yeah, that would cost us a lot.

So many contending teams with needs at RD would flat-out beat our offer, so that'd drive the price up a bunch.

Basically, Andersson would be an insane grab and help make our team better for the next 5-6 years, but I don't think we're at that stage of our rebuild to go around and trade the kind of assets that would be required back in a trade for him.

Are they even allowed to gauge his interest before July 1st , 2025 ?

Andersson has as said 1 year left after this one. If we offered Matheson who has 2 years left after this year and their 1st I wonder if that would be of interest to them. I would offer the 1st and Mailloux if that would do it.

If we could get Andersson he and Guhle should make for a very strong top pairing and I think Guhle would show more of whatever offensive ability he has.

Hutson gets the 3 spot and he needs a RHD to hold the 4 spot to give Reinbacher a chance to develop. If Reinbacher is the D HUGO thinks he is to take him at 5 I think he should be fighting for and hopefully grabbing that 4 spot in 2 years.

That could make for a very good top 4 and we have an abundance of guys to fill spits 5 and 6, namely Xhekaj and Struble right now.

Nope, not even in the ball park

Other than Calgary preferring someone else's prospect, I am confident the habs have the assets to match any package.

They still have one more year with him. Is possible they trade Anderson in the next TDL in 2026. I'm not so sure Calgary want to rebuild.

 

[rahad]

Calgary’s first and either Reinbacher or Mailloux and maybe another piece depending on which one of them is in the trade. I really doubt that the team would do this though.

You are insane if you honestly believe Kent will trade a Calgary first round pick + Reinbacher (top 5 pick) for Rasmus Andersson.

 

[Halakitlikethat]

Reinbachers value is not of a 5th overall pick anymore.

What are the chances he becomes a better player than Anderson is?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I think a big trade is coming. Too many assets. Way too many assets. Matheson isn't a long term solution.

I would not be surprised between now and deadline if habs get a 1st pairing defender.

I think you’re right.

 

[BaseballCoach]

Replace Matheson with Xhekaj

Does that make us better?

 

[Vachon23]

Rasmus Andersson is the obvious target. Silly if Calgary retains him. Not sure I qualify him as a top pairing D, but he is quite good.

He’s a 1st pair, maybe not a #1 but e really good #2 .

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

His value has NOT dropped. If he gets hurt again next season it will.

High chance lol. How many years did it take for Andersson to become a good RHD?
Not only you want to trade a high pick (Calgary first) + but also a recent top 5 pick (Reinbacher).....

How about you give Reinbacher 2 more seasons before you give up on him for a 28 years old player.....

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I took an old man nap when I came back from work and I had a short dream where we managed to land both Tage Thompson AND Rasmus Andersson. I was sad I had to wake up, not gonna lie.
