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

[1909]

James Reimer on waivers. Habs picks him or not ?

Could he be worse tham Primeau ?

 

[ReHabs]

Certainly when you're losing, you want to give your team everything you have to improve their chances, but we have to be patient and stick to our plan. We're not going to do things in the short term that are going to hurt our long term goals." - Kent Hughes

In other words, he won't mortgage the future.

 

[Andy]

Folks, the problems this team have will not be solved by waiver fodder. Enough lol

 

[Sterling Archer]

It would be incredible to get him but he has a Full NMC so I can't see any chance he would accept a trade to the Canadiens

Malkin or his dad was quoted as saying he’d love to play for Montreal. It was a while back but I think he’d accept a trade.

Or the price to get him

Didn’t he recently say that it was Pitt or go home?

MTL is not getting him.


More dreaming

 

[Benstheman]

I don’t pay for 1 year of Malkin.

Is everyone bad in Anaheim ? Haven’t looked. Never hear about their top picks. Just had a look Carlson sucks too, the team is baaaad

 

[The Great Weal]

Nah, general thought on the Pens board is that he will go out at the TDL and return a 2nd, perhaps a 1st in the right package deal.

Well this didn't age well whatsoever

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I guess that dude who said Eller might get a 2nd, or even a 1st is way f***ing off

No it did not.

 

[The Great Weal]

The Eller talk here has been so annoying since we traded him, I've never seen a 3rd liner receive so much attention. That being said, I have no clue how we don't match this offer. I'm sure he'd be an upgrade over Evans. And for some reason, we still have Primeau on the NHL squad. Hughes not wanting to give up insignificant value for a guy like Eller or risk losing a guy like Primeau to waivers is almost Bergevin-like. Not happy with that.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Less defensive centres to be dealt at the deadline, so Evans might get that 2nd as teams do a bit of a bidding war.

Maybe

 

[The Great Weal]

No it did not.

I would have easily matched that if I was Hughes. Better picks and not to your biggest rivals.

Can't wait to have Condotta as the 2C.

No and yes

 

[Mrb1p]

5th and a 3rd for Larsy. I would've paid that any day of the week.

Exactly my feeling. While I thought Eller was overrated around these parts, I would have gladly taken him now considering how we suck at the centre position.

Not a clear cut upgrade, I don't think it's worth it.

We have 7 picks in the first 3 rounds of this upcoming draft. A 3rd+5th is nothing. Especially when we also have guys that may get traded away for picks at the TDL too. Hell we could even trade him again at the deadline if it comes to it, hopefully Dach can manage the last 20 games as a center by that time. There's no reason not to make this trade.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

How has Riley Stillman been? I liked his potential back in the day.

AHLer except under the most dire of circumstances.

 

[OldCraig71]

I would have made the trade to get the great Dane back in Montreal, love me some Lars Ellah!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

At what point does the Letang conversation pick up again? We need the veteran D, the Pens are going nowhere fast.

He's become an absolute horror show defensively. It was never his finest trait, but oh boy, he's crashing hard. He was -5 in that shit show of a game against Dallas. He also has a full NMC & like 3 years on his contract. Huge pass.

Malkin would be amazing, or Pettersson.
