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

[WeThreeKings]

We have heard the rumour of us looking for a top 4RHD. Not sure that makes sense to me. So are we dropping or trading one of Matheson or Guhle ? Savard who is working well with Hutson be dropped to bottom pair ? Why would we drop Savard to bottom pair ? So then one of Struble or Xhekaj gone ? I mean getting Rasmus Andersson is one thing , but getting Not much of an upgrade over Savard makes no sense, and moving Matheson right now doesn't seem like something Hughes would do.

Would probably be to ease Savard to a rotational depth piece.

But they also mentioned that they are looking for short term help at forward with some jam and bite. So much for Marty, Hughes and Gorton wanting a soft team.

Need an upgrade on Guhle seeing as how he'll never reach his potential since he spends half of each season at least injured.

Another insightful gem from you.....

You're welcome.

And then the conspiracies will start that they only want that forward so that they can bench and/or trade Xhekaj because they secretly hate him.

 

[HuGort]

So Kovacevic can play on a better team but he couldn't play on a bottom feeder. Yeah, that makes sense. He has 2nd line minutes with the Devils. Here he rotated in and out of the lineup.

Big D like Kova good for taking away passing lanes. Most goals come off east-west passes. Over long period of time should have solid plus/minus.

So, we are looking at a bottom six physical player. Who there is?

I'll believe it when I see it. And I am fearful that while they are talking about "not mortgaging the future" that Arbs is a potential piece they will sacrify because, you know... he is not a rookie anymore. And there are many teams and coaches who can truly appreciate what Arbs can bring to the team. If you are the other team and have a nice depth forward "with edge", who do you want back? Dvorak?

Blake Wheeler and Milan Lucic are still UFA.

Special diet conference.

 

[Mrb1p]

WTH? Why did we let Tanner Pearson go?? I’m so pissed. Fire Kent Snooze.

Youre not serious

 

[MXD]

That big bottom-6 player with jam issue probably should've been taken care of in the offseason.

 

[GrandmaCookie]

Couldn’t do worse than pizza face.

 

[HuGort]

At deadline Might get a first for Evans and Armia combined. Good penalty killing unit for playoff team. Call up Beck and Roy.

They have one in Tuch and another with Davidson, I don't think they're agreeing with the vision of the club very much. Or they're just too afraid to waive some vets, which is bizarre since they did it last season.

I'm joking

Evans is a glue guy worth keeping. He's barely older than the core and there's no guarantee any of our center prospects overtake his capabilities as a 4C. We made that mistake with Eller and everyone celebrated getting two seconds who turned into nothing while Larry Love scored a cup winning goal.

Although I guess one of the seconds traded down and got Harris who was traded for a 40 goal scorer. (Sarcasm).

Still upset about Eller tbh. Would absolutely sign him for two years this summer.

At some point we have to stop moving talent out and start piling it. Matheson Savard and the crap forwards are the only one I'd look to move.

Tuch is starting his pro career coming from the NCAA and Davidson missed a lots of time last year due to injuries. I can understand why they started in the AHL. The same goes for Flojack.

Tuch and Davidson are 22 years old, these justifications should not stand.

Kessel would be a great veteran add and help for the PP.

The guy who hasn't played an NHL game in.almost 1.5 year? He's another RHS which we have plenty of too.

And they’re looking for someone with ‘edge’

Phil was more in the ‘round’ category last I checked

Kessel wants to play because he is 8 points away from a 1,000.
