dubious not available and highly doubt scheifele gets moved as well

 

[jetsv2]

Andrew Copp is a center, he only plays wing with the Jets because they have 3 other centers in their top 9.

Also what makes you think Dubois is available. He is 100% not for sale.

I didn't think Dubois was available but heard him talked about on the Black n' Gold podcast today. Not a real rumor, just speculation on their part.

He is 100% not available, the Jets are going to try to sign him long term this summer.

Key word being try

Key word being try

All indications are that he is very happy this year. He is quickly becoming a leader on the Jets. There really isn't any indication that he won't want to sign long term.

If you're Vancouver how do you not get Boston and Colorado into a bidding war over JT Miller?

They want to sign him if possible— will likely kick the can to this summer to see if there is a path forward. If not, I anticipate he will be traded in the summer.

Colorado will win that war.

Boston doesn't have the assets Colorado does, and they just landed a big fish.

 

[RedHawkDown]

Larkin is not available

 

[SKNJD9]

This beautiful big for nothing lazy MF'er

 

[howboutahug]

I'm curious what Winnipeg fans would want from Colorado for Scheifele?

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Copp and Stastny from the Jets are what we'll be offering. If Scheifele goes, it will be an off-season deal, but I strongly doubt that TNSE is bailing on him.

 

[Hodge]

Just thinking they could get an insane return for him right now after Boston and especially the Avs missed out on Giroux. Byram could be on the table.

 

[SensFactor]

Chris Tierney....he's your man, if he can't do it, nobody can

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Copp will be gone for sure, he's having a decent year and can move up and down any teams lineup.

Dubois won't be traded, he's the Jets #1 center moving forward. I bet they trade Schiefele in the off season or at least shop him.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Dvorak to the Avs, 3C this year and insurance if Kadri walks also buys time for Newhook to be ready for 2C. Given what’s gone on in Mtl this year would prefer to wait til next year for his value to rebound but if someone offered what we paid for him would let him go, late 1st (or equivalent prospect) and 2024 2nd. Signed for 3 more years and low AAV

Byram appears to be damaged goods at this point.

Yup. I tried a thread proposing him to Minnesota, but some people went way off track and it got closed early, but I think he's available, and could be a very good addition to teams looking for added medium-term depth. Habs are clearly rebuilding on the fly, and I just don't see him gelling with the up-tempo, quick-skating play they're going for.

I terms of return, I think the Habs would prefer prospects that are closer to the NHL, though. But if a Colorado 2nd can be flipped to Minnesota for McBain, for example, that could work out for everyone.

Habs could even take Compher if needed to make the cap work (and I think as a rental next season, we could re-coup yet more assets).

JT Miller?
Horvat?
Larkin?
Barzal?

Schmaltz?
Dvorak?
Domi?
Zacha?
D.Strome?
Copp?
Roslovic?

I'll plead the fifth on Strome because I don't know what his deal is, but other than him: none of the above.

Miller, Horvat, Scheifele, Scmaltz, and Dvorak are all offseason moves.
DuBois, Larkin, and Barzal aren't on the trade market at all.
Roslovic and Domi aren't really centers.
Copp isn't good enough to be talked about.
Zacha is neither a center nor good enough to be talked about.

Larkin isn’t available. Any talk about trading him is nonsense from a couple trade-obsessed fans.

JT Miller, Christian Dvorak, Max Domi and Andrew Copp are the only ones on that list i see moving at the trade deadline.

 

[HabsAddict]

Jabs have no center depth so moving Dvorak is going to be almost impossible.

Unless the offer was crazy...
