Hutson for Seider is a good start but while we're at it, I think we should also do Demivov for Kane straight up. I heard that guy is a beast in the playoffs.

That was 10 years ago you say? Don't care, when they offer you Patty Kane you don't ask for more. :sarcasm:

Guys, forget about Crosby and Seider. Let’s talk something a little more realistic.

If the Bruins keep losing and we keep winning, how much would Brad Marchand cost? We could use a playoff rat with his experience. :sarcasm:

People talk about what they know.

That's why this forum talked about Laine a lot, and as far as I can recall, nobody ever mentioned Carrier prior to the Barron trade.
 
What habs need to finish the season is a better #13 forward (than Pezz) who can step up and help in case of injuries.

Plus a vet-D, a RHD if possible as a #7-#8 d-man.

They definitely shouldn't spend assets on a #13 forward this year. Ride with Pezz this year and then either get a cheap FA or promote someone internally.

I agree they should target a RD, but I highly disagree on the level. What Montreal should be aiming for is a top4 RD.

A depth RD does nothing for the Habs. What they actually need is top talent because we have none at the NHL level right now.

If the Habs weren’t in the dogfight for a playoff spot, I reckon there would be interest in Josh Anderson on top of the interest in Evans and Armia.

It’s not a problem per se and it’s nothing to get wound up over but it would’ve been nice to see what haul we could bring in for them all. I didn’t think this season had a deep playoff run as its destiny… but they’ve been playing as well as I could remember the Habs play to be honest. So who knows.
 
This is a great test for the current management on whether what they say means something or they are full of shit.
In what sense?

They haven’t shown their cards or inclination at all. If they sell I won’t be surprised. If they buy I won’t be surprised. If they stand pat I won’t be surprised. ‘In the mix’ is also ‘no man’s land’ by another name.

Crosby and Seider? In a three-way? Sounds interesting.

Marchand is a dick head, he can go f*** himself somewhere else... Habs aren't hiring or trading for assholes anyhow. :sarcasm:

This isn't true. They clearly said the current season success doesn't change their plan.

This means no rental this year.

Evans is the biggest question mark. Pending UFA and if he is asking for a lot, what do we do? Let him play it out while we go as far as we can or trade him? Because I feel the 1st rounder will be offered. Look at most of the contenders... there is a big 3C need in the NHL. If Hughes feels like it's best to take the 1st rounder, how much faith do we have in Newhook as the 3C? Or does Hughes make a trade for a center but he has term or team control (RFA years left).

Drum roll...... Zegras :sarcasm:. Cost to acquire Zegras can't be much now. Would it be a good move to use the 1st in the Evans trade to get Zegras? We add a B+ prospect? Newhook takes the 3C spot and Zegras plays with Dach and Laine for the rest of the year. Then he moves to play with Newhook and Heineman next year when Demdiov arrives.

Savard may get a 2nd but we already have lots of picks. I think Savard, Armia, and Dvorak will stay.

Does trading one of our 3rd rounders count in your equation?

If it's for a rental, yes.

If they buy, it should be for a guy that will be there beyond this year.

What does our herd say if we trade Evans for a 1st and use that 1st to acquire Zegras (1st and B prospect). We put our faith in Newhook as our 3C?

I posted a Zegras value thread on the main boards. Curious to see what the Ducks and other fans say about him now.
