Description

If Blankenburg continues to impress we wont need to acquire new RHD. Then instead we should look for sturdy LHD to play shutdown role beside Blankenburg.

Other than that move. Build from within! Trust the process! In Jarmo we trust!

Trades

CBJ

Edmundson, Joel

Additional Details:

Montreal is rebuilding so they dont care if they lose a good defenceman. They are tanking on Bedard next year.

MTL

Additional Details:

Columbus needs a better defenceman in defence than Bean. These two are not key pieces but good complimentary pieces for Montreal to keep building again.

One game, but I was very impressed. Can certainly get behind Blankenburg if he looks good in the next few and doesn't fold vs tampa/pit. He looked really good last night. Also the kind of guy that I will always root for

not a bad start, but the habs could be looking at a first, second, and B- prospect for Edmundson

You don't follow the Habs so I assume you didn't see any of Hughes press conferences where he said the plan is to be competitive next year and he was not having a fire sale. Montreal already has several LHD prospects who are equal to or have the potentialto be better, therefor Bean to Montreal does not work.

Yeah but I meen who says out loud we are going to tank and be as bad as possible? I still see Montreal not going to the playoffs next year and "secretly" hoping to land Bedard..

This was just one trade idea. Any big sturdy physical LHD would do basically to play with Blanks! <3
