HF Habs: Trade Proposal Thread 92 Waiting on the DRAFT Edition

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

How about a package deal for Byfield and Brandt? Think those two guys have all our bases covered for what we’re looking for and both have been in trade rumours this year.

Cole Suzuki Slaf
Laine Byfield Demidov
Newhook Beck/Kapanen Anderson
Heineman Evans Gally

Hutson Clarke
Guhle Carrier
Struble/Xhekaj Reinbacher

You're losing a core member almost certainly for that pair.

 

[Benstheman]

The thing with the 3 x 1st round picks is that they are all likely to be 16+. Draft odds aren't that good. Adding Beck is the sweetener for them. He is at best a 3rd line centre for us. Hage is the prospect we want to keep IMO.

Slaf - Suzuki - Caufield
Laine - Crosby - Demidov
Heinemen - Dach - Newhook
Anderson - Evans - Gally
Kapanen

Guhle - Hutson
Matheson - Reinbacher
Xhekaj - Carrier
Struble

Thats a team that makes a serious run at the cup for the next two years at least. Once Crosby drops off....we make a play for another 2C or Hage walks in. I'm willing to bet on Hage.

We have enough top 6 talent that id trade draft capital at this point to get 2-4 years of Sid.

As for Lapierre. If we acquired him this Summer. He is behind Beck and Hage. At 23 years old.....Why?

Take Matheson out of my sight ffs.

I think Clarke can be had for a reasonable price, even cheap… his game doesn’t fit LAK stylistically - he is a defensive liability for a team that’s all about defense first

Byfield however, is perfect for their style and as mentioned is the successor to Kopitar

I don’t want a defender that’s a defensive liability.

 

[DAChampion]

MSL and Crosby fought at the Olympics, and Lecavalier had to split them. Crosby was a princess back then, and MSL was a real brat.

That was 11 years ago.

It's healthy to move on from small fights after 11 years.

 

[Paradoxe]

That was 11 years ago.

It's healthy to move on from small fights after 11 years.

Yeah sure. But we never know if both of them did pass from that.

 

[DAChampion]

Yeah sure. But we never know if both of them did pass from that.

I think it's likely that both MSL and Crosby are more mature than you suggest.

 

[Paradoxe]

I think it's likely that both MSL and Crosby are more mature than you suggest.

But this is still a paradox because Crosby won't be moved.

 

[Scriptor]

It would cost more because Crosby is still pretty active, while both Gretzky and Bourque were washed ... Crosby would be one of Demidov or Reinbacher, 2x1st and a B prospect.

Ridiculous.

 

[Scriptor]

yop, but that wasn't prime Gretzky anymore and in an Era where market value wasn't our...

It's not prime Crosby anymore either, folks. Get real.

 

[DAChampion]

But this is still a paradox because Crosby won't be moved.

Some of us enjoy this kind of speculation but I understand if other people find it annoying.

I think that Duchene and Tavares are good options too.

 

[BergevinBurner]

Ridiculous.

Yea that proposal is completely disconnected from reality lmao.

 

[DAChampion]

Caulfield - Suzuki - Slafkovsky
Laine - Crosby - Demidov
Kappanen - Newhook - Heinemen
Anderson - Evans - Gallagher

Dvorak, Armia, Pezzetta, Roy, Dach ... Gone? 13th forwards? 17th forwards?

That's a lot of depth.

 

[HuGo Sham]

It would cost more because Crosby is still pretty active, while both Gretzky and Bourque were washed ... Crosby would be one of Demidov or Reinbacher, 2x1st and a B prospect.

eugh what?

 

[HuGo Sham]

If I'm Dubas, I'm asking for a top 5 prospect, a couple 1st and a B prospect, you do not want to pay, fine, I keep Sid.

keep Sid

 

[Mrb1p]

I don't think he would be cheap but trading 3 first and Beck is total stupidity i would love to have Crosby he fits the time frame until Hague become's our #2 center but not at these stupid price.

Hes not gonna be worth 3 first.

 

[Mrb1p]

He's one of the best two way C in the game. Wild see him as their franchise C along with their fans. Not saying he's an actual franchise but he's a total stud.

Hes a stud but hes a 2C.

 

[Mrb1p]

Father Time is undefeated for a reason. It will catch up to him much sooner than that.

Crosby is a top 5 player of all time. Father time is going to catch up to him, but its goint to take a while. See Ovi, see Howe.

Clarke needs to be a PP QB to be relevant, absolutely not a need.

 

[TomKosto]

Ridiculous.

It’s as much ridiculous than people saying we can get Sid for mid first rounders and craps like Mailloux. Anyway, he won’t be trade, gonna retire as a Pen. I Hope we wont see proposal for Crosby all summer lmfao.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I don't think he would be cheap but trading 3 first and Beck is total stupidity i would love to have Crosby he fits the time frame until Hague become's our #2 center but not at these stupid price.

3 firsts I'd do for sure. Beck not included. But we could give them somebody like Mailloux.

Expensive but well worth it.

 

[tazsub3]

We know where I stand. I wouldnt do this.

I would do both 1sts this year, next years first and Beck.

hahaha i typed my reply to him, and then i saw yours and we made almost the exact same proposal.....lol
Mine was both first , beck and any d not in the nhl not called Reinbacher. or even Arbor instead

 

[tazsub3]

3 firsts I'd do for sure. Beck not included. But we could give them somebody like Mailloux.

Expensive but well worth it.

to be fair , looking at it from pits point of view, they might want a dach instead of beck.at least to attempt and say they got nhl level return.
for all the people saying how can gen be traded for crap , i tell you it is simple, he dont want to be traded they get nothing, he wants to he will dictate where he is going and the return might not be what people think

 

[DAChampion]

In a hypothetical 21st century redraft, Crosby goes 1st.

I do wonder how the other players would go.

 

[Paradoxe]

Ridiculous.

It is, but it won't be late 1st, a suspect, and a 3rd either. Crosby is out of the target range.
