Thread: Cant wait for friday - realistic take for the habs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Okay, well he wasn't able to crack Montreal's lineup regularly last year and wouldn't crack Winnipeg's starting 6. So, then the Jets would lose him on waivers. Meaning he adds like a 3rd or 4th in value, so not much.</div></div>

I mean he played 48 games in the NHL last year, that's 6th most among Habs defensemen. Our defense moved around a lot because we have a bunch of young guys and the team gave multiple chances to different guys. He's 22 (23 in November), 6'2, posted 13 points in 48 games with essentially no PP time, and was a -3 on a -53 team lol. I'm not saying he's god, or even that the Jets would absolutely want him, but he's not getting waived lol. You are clearly underestimating his value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>stuuuuuuuuuuutzle</b></div><div>Laine seems to really need a fresh start and I think now you still have the mystery of a player who has been great sometimes, has been bad others, has been injured lots. Also, in terms of the trade, I think it's pretty fair for taking Dvorak too (though, Habs might not care that much since they don't need to be great next year). I don't think I'd trade him for much less — maybe take Heineman out</div></div>

Yea the thing is Dvorak is not a bad asset next year. He's UFA in 2025 and the habs can probably easily move him for a pick with half retained salary at the deadline. They won't be paying someone to take him next year, not a chance. If he's offered to CBJ, it would be because they would actually want him or because they value the same idea of him being most likely gone next year and being able to get free assets from him at the deadline.

It would basically be Harris + Heineman + a late first, a second, and a third. It's not like outrageous or anything, but think Harris + late first + 3rd should be enough. Or like Harris + Heineman + 2nd.

Damn that would be quite the splash lol. Nice job thinking that out. So let's see.

Would any team do Guhle, 5OA for Johnson, 4OA? I think I would favor the CBJ in that deal, so if I'm the habs I say no.

Than we have Laine for 26th OA, and I don't think CBJ accepts that, so maybe if we pull both those trades together, we have an ok from both teams.

The last part of the trade is Dvo+Farrel for Svozil. I don't actually know Svozil, but Dvo and Farrel have very little value in my opinion, so the habs would win that as a cap dump. Idk what Jackets fan think of Svozil, but if they value him at all, I don't think that's a trade you go for.

So that's two no, one yes for CBJ and two yes one no for MTL.

Now if I'm MTL, we're moving up to grab a forward, so we're trading away our best defenseman, and what I assume would be a great D prospect picked at 5, and we're getting 2 great prospect at forward (4OA and Johnson) + Laine for it.

For CBJ, they are moving money away with the Laine move, and getting 1 stud Dman + 1 stud D prospect.

I think in terms of value this at least sort of works right? But then would those team really get better with moves like that? CBJ would be left with very little offensive punch and MTL really can't replace Guhle, almost all of our D prospect are offensive minded.

The next move with Arizona doesn't really make sense to me tbh, so I'm kinda ignoring that one.
