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

[salbutera]

Based on the perception that Zegras is not a player his own GM likes I get the feeling that alot of GM's are not too keen on grabbing a player who seems to be one dimensional. Why would a two time 60 point scorer not be wanted by his team?

Just as Sennecke was preferred over Demigod by little ball of hate - Zegras isn’t a Verbeek type of smash mouth player

Just heard Pagnotta say that the Oilers are not done and are looking for a 4-5D.

I think David Savard could be a good option for them.
Taking back Ceci might not be a condition but could provide enough motivation for the Oilers to part with Holloway.
David Savard at 50% vs Ceci saves them 1.5M under the cap and they are currently 350K over, with only 21 players on the roster.

I think the Oilers can be patient. Broberg looked pretty good when called upon in the playoffs.

Also don’t think they give up on Holloway. He’ll have a bigger role with McLeod gone now. He’s another that looked good on their run.

Going by the amount of PIM Zegras is getting, he's actually trying to be...

 

[Mrb1p]

I would look into signing Boris Katchouk, decent size might not have much upside other than 4th liner but he is represented by Octagon which also represents Rantanen, Draisaitl and Laine…

No need to go for Katchouk. Poulin should be the target.

I'll hammer this forever. Big, jam, skills, Québécois, cheap, Mike Sullivan doesn,t like him much... Like there's no downsides.

Do hooking and tripping penalties count as "smash mouth" though?

I like Zegras and hope he's one of the player we can trade for but tough, he is not...

Brutal for NSH and EDM

 

[The Great Weal]

Holloway kinda stinks. He looked good in a grinding role for a few games but besides that, he showed no offensive talent at all. Maybe he needs a bigger opportunity, but I wasn't entirely impressed besides a few games.

After watching the Oilers most of the playoffs i don't really know what all the fuss is about with Holloway . I like Foegele alot more even though he's older

Why is Nashville doing this? They have Josi and Skjei on LD. Do you pay any attention to the rosters and needs of other teams?

With all these "drop-by" posts you do about them being done, you're not going to "will" them into doing something lmao

No just reverse
want KH to read this and prove me wrong

What's up with Netchas?

 

[Tyson]

He filed for arbitration

 

[vokiel]

Nah he was done before it started.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I sure would jump at the opportunity to add Mercer, if the negociations for his new deal turn ugly and he wants out of New Jersey. He'd fit in well in our top 9.

Nah there’s a game of chicken going on - Necas, Laine, McGroarty

One of the GMs will cave…

I like the player and his intensity. Not sure if he is a good fit tho because he is smallish and a bit weak.

Is he better than Demidov, Suzuki, Slafkovsky, Caufield, Dach, Newhook? Then Roy, Hage?

I think he would be at best our 4th-6th best forward and i am not sure he is the type of player we should invest in to fill that role.

No problem.

We are in the driver seat. we have pretty much every pieces in place and its a matter of time before they are established. We still have 2x 1st and 2x 2nd and a boatload of cap space.

There is no rush, especially for player like Necas and Zegras.

Hughes can afford to deal in his own parameter.

I think he could be a solid top 6 winger for us, if we could get him back to the 50 points level. He's also solid on the PK, he plays a pretty well rounded game, he'd complement a guy like Dach real well.

Imagine teams fighting to get Necas lmao. Dude sucks

 

[GrandmaCookie]

People here, are truly, a funny bunch. KH is done grocery shopping. All dreams no shots any of them happens. This is pretty much the 2024-2045 roster.

Imagine teams fighting to get Necas lmao. Dude sucks

He a fine bro offensively, but defensively dude is a cauldron.

That is horrible for the Preds, I would do this 20 times out of 10. Add in a first and I probably still do it. Don't want Holloway certainly not for a 2nd and strudel
