Mtl: Gallagher

Edm: 1rd 2018

Is Gallagher worth a top 10 protected pick? I thin so AN D Edm should do it to have a line like this

Luci-McADe-Gallagehrr

@mtl4life, Why would habs do that? Because Gallagher is a middle six winger and they’re trying to build on the fly and a first round pick starts that. My thinking is why would Edmonton do that? They want a legit scoring winger to play with mcdavid, like a Hoffman, patches, skinner etc. Not a middle six grinder. They’ve tried maroon and lucic, as much as they’re clearly bigger, they’re still guys known more for physicality and work ethic over skill just like Gallagher.

Gallagher is on an amazing contract tho and he's a leader on ice and on top he's one of the hardest working players out there day in and out.

He might be on a good contract but he’s not the type of player they’re looking for. If they want someone hard working who plays physical and is a fan favourite they can just re sign maroon in July, who said he would like to come back. And they could sign him for the same or maybe even less, and still have their 1st rounder. Easy no.

If they’re giving up a first or a first plus, it’s got to be a real scoring upgrade. Gallagher I don’t think does that.

Its a salary out = Salary in situation for Edmonton right now, So deal would have to go:

Strome and Yamamoto ( 3.4 Mill) for Gally (3.75M)

OR

Russel or Sekera (4.1M - 5.5M) for Gally (3.75) + something pending player MTL wants.

That's the only way Edm can make this happen with the tight cap situation currently.

Both teams need their first round picks, but Edm needs it's first round pick worse than Montreal with the impending tight cap situation next year.

Doubtful MTL would take either trade, but that's what Edm has currently for the salary in = salary out situation they're in.

That was fairly rational FT4A. I thought Yamamoto would’ve been worth Montreal’s 1st and Pacioretty in your eyes.
