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

[Paddyjack]

No

 

[Team_Spirit]

I'll wait for Draisaitl tyvm

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Holloway and broberg are not signing for $1m. The will demote a Ryan and maybe trade a McLeod

Neither have done all the much to deserve more. Holloway only played 38 NHL games this year. Broberg 12. Both were regulars in the Finals, but definitely not throughout the playoffs.

One year, $1m is about what they should get.

 

[Tyson]

Like my father use to say "N-O-N...NON

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Yes.

But only if he poses for a selfie with a wad of money.

 

[The Real Timo]

nope. top 6 W for sure... bad fit with the new team culture. dont want him around at all.

What’s the culture? Other than avoiding toughness like a plague what is that vaunted culture everyone speaks of?

I'll wait for Draisaitl tyvm

Drai on waivers soon - E5!!

 

[CGG]

What about something around Anderson for Burakovsky?
Anderson needs a change of scenery, and Burakovsky is coming off an injury plagued season and has fallen out of favour a bit in Seattle.
Cap hit and term are even. We could probably add a mid round pick, i.e. one of our 3rd rounders

I like this idea. Who knows if Burakovsky would be any better, but might as well give it a shot.

 

[MXD]

I would've had no issue with him for a 1-year show-me deal or something, but...

This isn't the condition he'll be coming here.

More important, He looks completely donezo. Finitos. Over it. Done. Injuries.

 

[Takeru]

I feel like there's a path to extract value from COL cap situation.
Team is up to cap limit and falls short of a full roster. Wish we could nab their 1st rounder.

 

[Kennerback]

No. Not far enough in the rebuild for that type of transaction. Why toy with the team’s chemistry when it’s not necessary yet.

 

[Tyson]

f*** no! He's a douche and I normally have a high tolerance for accepting douches but he's on another level of douchebagery.

THIS

Gallagher has gotten every single opportunity in the world to try and produce for the last handful of years. PP minutes, quality teammates, extra attacker mins, top 6 mins etc... you name it and he could barely produce.

His stats (abominable as it is) are inflated due to his preferential treatment. He's slow and can't keep up with plays, his offensive decision making is none existant, team worst +/-. He takes dumb penalties over and over without any repurcussions.

I'm not sure if he deserves to be in the lineup. All I see is someone who's hanging on due to favoritism by our coaching staff.


Fine, send him home. He either plays in AHL or he can stay home.

- Gallagher played 14:17 a game 2 years ago and 13:47 last year, both years these were near the very bottom of our forwards TOI.
- He spent most of last year with Evans, Dvorak, Armia, RHP and Anderson at ES and only finished the year with Newhook because like half of our forwards were hurt. The year before he spent most of his time with Dvorak, Dadonov, Evans and Hoffman.
- His PP minutes have gone way down, the only reason he still sees PP time is due to how weak our forwards have been. Even Tanner Pearson was on our PP last year it was that bad.

His contract sucks and he's not going anywhere with his NMC, but the last half of last year he actually played well and showed when he plays lower ice time he can help contribute.

 

[Bottle Rocket]

Like my father use to say "N-O-N...NON

My father used to say that too.

Wait, could it be... bro?

 

[BLONG7]

He scores, is tough and will defend his teammates. We only have Wifi and he cant fight everybody

This is so true, that said he has been a nightmare everywhere he goes................way too much trouble.
What a player this guy could have been if he had his head in it.
I spoke with his Uncle several times, and he said the boy has been like this his whole life.
His Uncle said turning pro was a big thing, but the family knew it could be trouble...................

 

[Sasha Orlov]

No thanks

Gally needs Newhook's speed. He looked much better with him than anyone in the last 3 seasons.

 

[Scintillating10]

Oilers are over the cap by $2.5M and have Broberg and Holloway to sign. Montreal can offer Kane a top six roll . Two years at $5.125M. Hughes make it happen.

What Oilers give us to take him? A Monahan type trade?

Gally needs to retire

COL 2025 1st already belongs to the Flyers if I am not mistaken.

 

[habsterr]

Maybe take a crappy player like Ceci and a draft pick for future consideration.

 

[rabbit4949]

At least 6 teams are over the cap right now and a few more are going over when they have to sign their RFA's. Patience grasshopper.

A Monahan type trade works if you are getting a Monahan- ultimate team guy. Kane is the ultimate me guy, the last thing you want to expose your young guys to.

Kane +Mtl nightlife = nothing good.

I doubt we get McG but I could see us landing Laine.

I still want to see how cheap we can get JVR. Solid vet who can help on the PP, but isn't too good that the blocks out young guys from earning top six minutes

 

[1000eeer]

Would you do that trade:

(MTL) Matheson (50% retained) for (NSH) Askarov + Lauzon + 2026 1st round pick.

Or something like that...
