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

[therocket9]

If these guys went to market I’d be inquiring.


Jordan Greenway - 27yrs old
Brett Howden - 26yrs old
Justin Brazeau - 26yrs old
Mathieu Olivier - 27yrs old
Trent Frederic - 27yrs old

Nicklaus Perbix - 26yrs old
William Borgen - 27yrs old

I’d look at 3-4 year deals to bring them to 30-31yrs old whichever we could acquire. The two on defense Perbix and Borgen I’d want both.

Specifically to shore up the defense and have Reinbacher in the AHL, Mailloux and Barron competing and rotating that final spot on the right side. To ease them in.

Guhle Perbix
Hutson Borgen
Matheson Mailloux
Xhekaj Barron
Struble

This way allows the perfect amount of lefty righties. Adds size and mobility. Savard which has slowed down would be replaced.

Kovacevic is another RHD who is a free agent.

If they are leaving Dach on the wing...........................then absolutely.
Not ready to throw Dach under the bus, but he has not looked good early on.

Laine returning soon helps the PP and offense, but we do need something down the middle besides Suzuki to create plays.

How long did it take Caufield to get back on track, following his shoulder surgery?

We all know that players undergoing major surgeries followed by extensive time away from games are normally followed by lengthy periods of not being able to perform at pre-injury levels. The time it takes can vary based on individual circumstances. This is where Dach is at.

Dach is not playing like he showed 2 seasons ago. Hence, for me, drawing conclusions based on what he’s doing now, is premature and misleading — I’d rather wait and see how he reacts deeper into the season. I appreciate that others may not have the same level of patience.

During that span of... 4 periods?

He meant the year before the injury.Dach will be a really good player like he was then but it's going to take a bit more time for him to get the his speed back and especially the physical aspect of his game .He looks tentative .He will be fine.Take a look back at film the way he was before the injury .A player that has really regressed is Slaf .Don't know what's going on with him

 

[Sterling Archer]

Can’t wait for Laine to come back and the uproar when he doesn’t score in his first 5 games. Should we trade him too?

Dach had 58 gp with 14g and 24a for 38pts.

I think he is tentative and hope he'll get it going but "really good player like he was then"... he was never a really good player in the NHL, it's all potential.

 

[Treb]

We're already having a rough time as it is to defend, not sure we trade him at all. Let's see.

By the TDL we'll see where we are. If we're clearly out, no reason to keep him, just call up Mailloux or take on a warm body cap dump.

If we're in the mix, it depends on the offer and Mailloux's progression. Or if we can make a deal for a mid/long term solution.

 

[Apfel Struble]

There's a real possibility that we'll have a second line of Caufield-Evans-Laine which Evans would love. He's going to cash in with his next contract. As of now, he plays a pretty important role on that team and is a solid vet. Would you keep him? At what AAV would you let him go?

A 4 or 5 X 3 would be ideal, but this ship has sailed. I think he makes north of 4M and the contracts nets him over 20M
