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

[Runner77]

Newhook's best season is 34 points in 55 games. Just last season.
Dach's best season is 38 points in 58 games. Two seasons ago.

Why do people act like one is more likely to come out of this funk than the other?

Yes, Dach is coming off an injury, but they said he was healed and was ready to go at the end of last season. Maybe he never recovers.

Because Dach’s injury is typically not overcome within a few months and there’s a decent chance he may still end up up as a 2C, something I very much doubt Newhook is suited for or will do.

Because Dach is big.

Because Dach is big.

Yes, that's a factor, and?

Overweight even... Newhook just looks less like damaged goods.

Lavoie is the biggest joke in Quebec the guy is really dumb.

Renaud or JC ? Oh never mind

Would they?
Could they?
Memories …
Of the fake trades
We left behind.

Fake trades
We vomited
At one another
For the way
We were.

Would you trade him for a mouse?
Could you trade him in a house?
Would you trade him in a Box?
Could you trade him for Adam Fox?

Trading upcoming FA for upcoming FA isn't that much of a common occurrence.

There's always deals to be made regardless of the situation. Hughes seems like the guy who wants to do things in a different way. Anything can be explored.

Well of course, but if your main strategy is to trade Evans for an UFA upgrade, you are very likely to be disappointed.
