Anyone verify this?

Friedman did said that, whatever what he is saying is true is something else entirely...

Yeah I'd definitely inquire about Tanev and even Gourde. He's a pain in the ass to deal with even if he's 5'9.

I just have no idea what Seattle wants in return in addition to taking back Dvorak.

To me SEA will look to shake things up if they trade him. I don't see what they Habs could offer for him except if they think SEA would be interested in a 2nd to have a deeper pool in the next years and if they see the possibility of resigning him. I don't think they'd want Dvorak. I actually think a Tanev Dvorak Armia could be a good forecheck / possession line even though a bigger meaner Dvorak would be ideal.

A couple of things playing against something happening.

For one, timing — most opportune time for striking these kind of deals is the off season. Begs the question, how did Hughes not know in the off season, that his team lacked forward toughness and an experienced RHD? Or, maybe he fully knew but wasn’t willing to pay what it takes?

Hughes not giving up futures (picks and/or prospects) as part of a deal for above assets doesn’t leave him with a whole lot of appealing pieces to dangle.

Was Hughes just using these rumor mongerers to send a message to his players?

Keep in mind in the offseason we had less flexibility then we do now because of Price's contract and the desire to not use offseason LTIR. It's not something that would've prevented a good deal from taking place, but if the only deals available were kind of meh then it would be something.

maybe 95% of it

Yup.

Which means they probably won't do anything

He also threw out the name Matt Benning, but he has another year.

He also sucks, so it's not worth anything unless the Habs can deal a worse contract.

If Hughes is looking for a younger forward Mathieu Olivier tha he can sign to an extension....if it is a veteran forward who can forecheck Brandon Tanev last year of contract in Seattle.

Would have been great if Hughes could have made him part of a package deal when he acquired Laine. Maybe he tried, who knows.

You can only trust Friedman if he’s says he’s certain 96% or greater.

Top 4 right D going to be expensive. Especially without giving up future.

A second pairing right D costs us Michkov.

Update: Friedman on Mike Futa show today said Habs been asking for an edgy forechecking forward. Somebody without term.

On 690 they mentioned Gourde?

Stop with the ridiculous posts. Until they have played for a few years Reinbacher is as much a top 2 d as Michkov is a top line forward.
