HF Habs: Trade Proposal Thread #90: 2024-2025 season part III

[pepperMonkey]

At a hotel in downtown Montreal and I’ve run into 3 Capitals scouts for some reason which is odd because they don’t play the Habs again this season. Take that as you will, really random.

And what are you doing at a hotel in downtown Montreal? Hmm???

My guess is that @le_sean works as a private investigator.

My guess is that @le_sean works as a private investigator.

He doesn't say things like "toots", or "see?"after stating something.

Doesn't talk about smoking a cigarette every 10 minutes in a dimly lit room while listening to depressive jazz from the 50s.

Never talks about the one that "got away" in relation to an adversary, or a lover.

I'd say he's more like a Spy.

MSL believes in a playoff chance after these 2 points. Watch us keep all our UFAs.

LA will be calling and asking Hughes about Evans.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't look like Robert Mitchum or Humphrey Bogart either !

Anderson played solid game Tonight. Scored a goal, aggressive on the forecheck on first goal.

I have mixed feelings on it but would you trade him for a late first? He's one of few tough guys we have, wears the CH on his heart. But we should be able to sign a physical 4th liner for half of 5.5 million. Frees up 3 million in caproom next season. Moves Heineman up to 3rd line. The extra first could sure up right D with a Hensler or Fiddler type.

From our FAs, I think Evans and Savard would be the most interesting pieces for Washington.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Washington go all in this year with the regular season run they've had and the 8 clock running out.

Taking back Ethan Bear to clear them of the AHL bury overcap would fit us as well to finish the year.

Looking at it, maybe an Armia for Mangiapane switch would suit them as well to free some cap? Depends how they value Mangiapane contribution to the PP vs Armia freeing others from the PK.

I don't see Dvorak and Pezzetta fitting.

Other than Xhekaj, we need another veteran tough presence with Demidov making his way to North America. I think we should keep him until next year and instead trade Evans, Armia and Savard.

Like you said, it should be possible to sign a tough bottom6 player for half the cap hit.

We need a sea change, this roster is dysfunctional.

If the plan is to trade Anderson, it would be the right timing. There is a risk that he get back in his shell next year.

 

[Sterling Archer]

But that's also with an ultra talented dman in Makar

That’s not how that works.

 

[morhilane]

Getting traded twice in the span of like 2 months would be wild.
