If PLD is one of your top 6 centers you’re not going to be a playoff team. Once guys like him get paid with term they float often. And he was already a floating type of player before the big payday. It’s one of many Blake mistakes that will haunt us for years.
I hope he turns into that. Given how it has ended at his previous two stops and how has started in LA would rather cut losses and bail.
Well, both of these have some high-end potential left in them, and if LA had secondary options, maybe there's a fit there, but it doesn't look like LA has a reason to sell them cheaply, they'd be exactly the kind of players Montreal tends to go for - Newhook, Dach, Barron were all in similar situations.
Don't expect a return and do expect to take back a player like Ghally. Not just from Habs but any team that may have remote interest.
When you say Fowler are you talking Jacob? I f so no he's not available. He's our future #1 .
Any idea if the drink is any good?
Habs should be picking in the top 5. How good of a prospect can we expect from #4/5?
No. Just no.
Say Turcotte seems healthy and has a strong 2nd half.... why not ? He'd be a better risk/return profile for us than picking someone who'll be 7 years younger than Suzuki and unlikely to make an impact for 3 years.
Are these guys any better then Roy or Beck or Mesar?
Look at the timing. If memory serves me right, these guys wanted out at the same time as PLD and they signed after he left.
Everyone wants sure-thing top-6 players, but they are really hard to find. I'd say trading for either of these 2 is more likely to give a top-6 player than using a draft pick and get a guy who blooms when Suzuki is 30.
Did i say stars?
