Thread: Forget Zegras we need Necas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonh514</b></div><div>More cap: yes. More term: no. They both have 3 seasons left.

Quite simply: the Habs need scoring and one thing Skinner can do, is score.

Between Roy, Farrell, Beck, Kapanen, Tuch, F. Xhekaj, the Habs have a plethora of guys who can fill a bottom 6 role over the next 3 seasons. Skinner would fill a top 6 role while whomever we draft this year develops.</div></div>

My bad, I was thinking Gally had 1 year left.

Roy should be getting a look in the top 6, he has amazing offensive abilities that are severely underrated. I would rather give him that opportunity than bring in Skinner. I have my doubts that any of Farrell, Tuch and Kapanen ever make the NHL and Xhekaj is a 4th line tough guy with a bit of scoring ability (think Chris Simon with more scoring ability)

Thread: Wildcard
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>His stats are better than Caufield's, so yeah he's gonna make that kind of money. After all, his next contract being too expensive is the only reason Carolina would want to trade him away. If they could sign him for $5M AAV, they would just keep him to contend.

As for trade value, a top 20 pick + would be the market's value (like Fiala). This isn't it.</div></div>

What stats are better than Caufield's?

PPG? CC = .727 MN = .671
G/GP CC = 0.4 MN = 0.28
A/GP CC = 0.33 MN = 0.40

The differences translates to
CC /82GP G = 33, A = 27, P = 59.6
MN /82GP G = 23, A = 33, P = 55.0

Personally, I would rather have the guy putting up 10 more goals and 4 more points a season than the guy putting up 6 more assists, but that is just me. Necas has had 0 season above 20 G and 0 seasons above 45 points in his first 3 seasons. Caufield has had 3 seasons above 20 goals and 1 season above 45 points, 2 above 25 goals and 1 above 50 points in 3 years. All this to say that when comping the first 3 years of both players, Caufield is ahead at the same age and its not even close.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>LMAO so let me get this straight. You would actively not take a great value deal for Montreal because it adds a top 4 defensemen while also actively opening up another roster spot on the blue line by subtracting 2 inferior defensemen? Not to mention the 2nd trade opens up another roster spot on the blue line by getting rid of Barron. A trade like this would allow you to play Matheson and Savard on your 2nd or 3rd pairing instead of exposing them to 22 minutes a night to get caved in. Then by the end of the season you move Savard to a contender and bring up one of Reinbacker or Mailloux. Your expectation that prospects can just casually jump into top 4 roles is ridiculous.</div></div>

Ok, apparently I do need to dumb it down for you!

Habs not trading for LHD. Habs not trading 3 D men unless 2 of Hutson, Mailloux or Reinbacher make the team. Habs have no reason to spend assets on a LHD they do not want or need, if they were trading for a top 4D the D would have to be RH, already NHL proven, <strong>and</strong> under 25 with top pairing ceilimg (think Jiricek or Nemec) and even then we would have to send Reinbacher the other way as well so as not to have the same issue on the right as we have on the left where we are blocking players from claiming spots. Is that plain enough?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Huh? And in that same trade you are losing Harris, a left handed defenseman. You are also losing Kovacevic, a right handed defenseman.

That is + 1 defenseman, but also -2 defensemen. How are you this blind? The math says that is +1 spot on the blue line for any of Reinbacher, Mailloux, or Hutson</div></div>

Are you ignorant or do you just not understand English?! Who cares how many are going out vs coming in?! We need to trade a minimum of 2 D men to open spots for Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailloux, we are <strong>not</strong> taking back <strong>any</strong> D and blocking them from making the team next season. This trade just simply is not happening cause it makes 0 sense for the Habs and goes against everything Hughes just said in an interview 2 weeks ago. Is that plain enough English for you or do you need it dumbed down even more?!
