HF Habs: Trade Proposal Thread #89: 2024-2025 season part II

[yianik]

With the 2 1sts that we have, and the couple of 2nds, odds favour us ( I looked at prior drafts picking where we are ) to select a top 6F/ top4D.

The downside is that player likely won't be in the lineup for another 3 years. The positive is where we are at , given all the talent we have, one more top end guy could make a significant difference by being in the lineup or bringing us back a need in a trade.

Or we cash in right now and use the picks in a trade to fill a remaining need. Centres and D may be a need, wingers are not.

We have to be very careful though. Ottawa gave up I think an 8thOA and a 12thOA in getting Debrincat and Chychrun and they failed badly because their other pieces weren't as good as they thought.

Any big moves for us should be reserved for the off season and draft.

Good stuff. I'm sure Gorton/Hughes will listen to what is out there from now till TDL but they are not desperate to make a move. It's more probable they will have better options near the draft.

I guess you are hard core tanklogist. Goes against what Gorton and Hughes been preaching doesn't it?

If a deal like Farabee and Frost fell in your lap would you pass?

Wouldn't have said no to Frost as a center. Farabee I liked him to but not a need.

 

[Benstheman]

We are getting closer from having a shot at Desnoyers or Frondell. That I like.

 

[Andy]

I find all the players involved in this trade very meh. Frost, Farabee, Kuzmenko are all tweeners. Pelletier hasnt proven anything.

Evans has quieted down recently and it's time to make some trades.

Let's revisit the Evans + for Nemec swap.

Armia, Savard and Dvorak all need to go as well. We don't need any more picks in 2025 -- so look to the future of 2026 and 2027 picks.

100%

Evans is never going to have more value than he does right now.

Savard is definitely going to be attractive to some playoffs teams looking to add experience on the blueline.

Armia should also be attractive to teams. He'd be a solid bottom 6 add to a playoff team.

Dvorak..meh. He's trash and I'll take what I can get. I'll be pleasantly surprised if there is much value there.

No way Gally gets traded. who would want him??

Faut se noyer pour Desnoyers! The tank slogan write itself (noyer being the french verb for drowning).
