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

[Mrb1p]

Parayko or bust. Send them Matheson and Mailloux

If the Habs want to trade Mike Matheson...they don't have to do it with any salary retention. He's already cheap for what he provides.

He's seriously undervalued by this fanbase.

Undervalued if you look at his DB page

My point has nothing to do with his DB page and all to do with his value as a minute eating, point producing Dman.

You're not a fan and that's your right, I just know there's not a ton of Dman who can do what he does (even if you think what he does isn't all that great) who are available and make less than 5M for this year and next.

That has value...value that you don't need to tie up a salary retention spot if you're desperate to move him.

So says your crystal ball? Mine kinda says he wins a Norris and the Flames are "In The Mix".

i dont need a crystal ball its an obvious move Conroy has to make Calgary are looking at a rebuild and Andersson will be worth a ton hes a bargain at 4.5 for two seasons

20 game mark before we see movement?

A lot of D can do what he does, mainly because he doesn't do it well.

Gustaffsson is the perfect example.

Parayko or bust.

He would be amazing, but I think we are not ready for such big trade. This team still needs 2-3 more years to mature. He would not accept the trade now.

This team needs veterans that have player key roles in winning team. Not just f***ing losers and depth players.

Last year, not tomorrow.

Gustafsson is currently 5th on the Red Wings in TOI/g

At ES he's 7th

On the PP he's 1st

On the PK he's 7th

He does not do what Mike Matheson does.

That makes him a poor example exacerbated by the fact that the Detroit Red Wings would kill for a player like Mike Matheson.

Mike Matheson, mostly out of necessity granted, played the 3rd most minutes in the NHL last season out of all players in the NHL last year.

Erik Gustafsson has never nor will ever come close to approaching that.

Again it's fine that he's not your cup of tea but to suggest he's got similar value to what is essentially a PP specialist, is ridiculous.

Kinda crazy we have like the worst veterans leader ive never seen gathered in one team

Does bowel movement count?

I doubt anything happens for two main reasons — timing is still early at 20 game mark and Hughes is only willing to trade assets that are not part of the future. So, who does that leave, one of the org’s many diminutive forwards?

That said, Hughes cannot be completely dismissed.
