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

[LaP]

Let's say WAS is having a bad year and OVI just retires. (he's injured i've heard)
So WAS going on a rebuild.
Would you be willing to trade for Tom Wilson for prospect and futures ?
30 years old at 6,5mil for a other 7 years

You are basically asking us if we want to be Derek in that prison scene in american history x.

 

[Rapala]

If Ovi is injured it wouldn't surprise me.
He looked like he just let himself go in that image posted here showing him on the beach.
If his normal playing weight is around 238 lbs he looked to be 250 lbs easily.

That was unnecessarily graphic.

I've always liked Leonard; I was one of the people saying he was good when it was apparent we were taking Reinbacher or Leonard.

Reinbacher still makes the most sense as the pick, especially when you consider what we were able to do at the draft table literally a year later.

I wanted them to draft him

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Newhook for Cernak

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Newhook for Cernak

Doubt the Lightning trade him, but that would be a great add

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Doubt the Lightning trade him, but that would be a great add

I wouldn't move a forward for him though. Habs surplus is on defense (although not rd).

 

[Treb]

Newhook for Cernak

We would have to add and it doesn't fit what Tampa needs.

What does Newhook brings to Tampa?

Why is Tampa creating a hole on their RD for Newhook?

 

[Destopcorner]

Newhook for Cernak

I like it. Tampa always pick in our yard and Newhook gits their style. Maybe something around Barron for Cernak, both would fit well in the organigram and salary department.

That's high praise for Fowler by management....if true of course. Our goalie of the future

 

[le_sean]

On paper, Fowler for Askarov is a trade I’d do. However, there’s something about Fowler’s approach to the game and confidence that is enticing to keep for this market.

It was probably Fowler + 1st round (pick or prospect) for Askarov.

 

[Team_Spirit]

If they wanted Fowler so bad why not pick him?

Home draft 6 bust top100 impressive

 

[HomaridII]

No way to Askarov for Fowler. Not in a million years.

I might look like a fool in years, but Fowler will be a star in this city, Askarov a mediocre NHL goalie. Quote me later either way.

Because he was drafted before his breakout season with Boston College. Had we known what we know now he would've been picked in the first round.

Insanely bold prediction, especially where goalies are concerned.

Primeau was supposed to be the heir apparent, remember? Look how that turned out.

Not saying Fowler is Primeau but there's a lot of years between "NO WAY WOULD I TRADE HIM FOR ASKAROV" and when he actually wears the sweater.

As for the trade, hard to say. Depends on much of a Monty truther you are whether you do this or not.

Primeau never had any type of hype. Never heard anybody talk about him the way Fowler is talked about.

lol I know its bold I don't make many or any at all actually.

I watched most of Fowler's games last year and I have full faith in him, more so than any of our prospects except Hutson and Demidov. He has the same thing the other two have, a desire to be the best, to grab the spotlight and be the man in his position, no matter how hard they have to work at it.

Askarov is an inconsistent hothead who hasn't shown up in the playoffs in the AHL:



That clip is in the playoffs btw. Anyways I don't like arguing lol. Askarov will proof me right, I am 100% certain. Immature, inconsistent hothead who has not ived up to his potential and is living on draft reputation. As I said, Primeau has better AHL Stats than ASkarov in a MUCH worst team.

Plus Askarov catches right handed!! He's not gonna be a star goalie lol

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Would have done 5OA for Askarov in the Reinbacher draft (knowing we wouldn’t take Michkov)

Would not trade Fowler for him at this point, Fowler is going to be a star and I am very very high on Askarov

 

[oberan1]

Exactly.. im calling it now, Crosby going be pulling a (ray borque) with the Habs in 25-26

Exactly why his contract is structured as it is - makes him easy to trade to a team of his choosing.

 

[McGees]

How long til I read this here

Do you think if Washington is having a bad year, PLD would ask for a trade and we could trade for him?

Give me 10 games and I'll post about Pierre-Luc.

I het a chuckle out of the pundits saying well, hes not going to be leaving Pitts.. lol

This contract is exactly for the reason of being shipped to his preference, in exchange for some young assets and picks at the TDL.

I could easily see him making that decision this year - and yes the Habs would certainly be a top destination.. at 8.7$M we can easily afford him.. especially if Dach cant stay healthy.
