The Habs need high end centre prospects but the draft has more talented wingers and defencemen, particularly in the top 10. It's also recognized as a deep draft (not 2003 or 2015 but still good).

The Rangers are rumoured to want to move up in the draft and have plenty of picks.

Rangers: 3rd overall
Montreal: 9th overall, Boston 1st, Tampa 1st

If it's still not enough, add New Jersey 2nd.

Montreal selects Hayton at 9th.
This would give Montreal 7-8 picks in the first two rounds.

If I’m Rangers I’m definitely not making that trade. They are doing a full out rebuild and blowing everything up I think it would be more wise for Rangers to keep their picks and get 3+ solid players rather than give it all away for one.

I'm merely going on what's reported in the media. It's not unfair for each side.

"C'mon man" - care to explain? Let's not be lazy here.

Its interesting from mtl. I know theyres a lot of good center deeper in this draft and not in the top 10 so could be a good option for mtl. Again a trade has to work both way so if NYR feels this like they're in a postion to give up all thos picksit could be a good gamble from mtl.

That's a lazy offer from a NNyr fan
Gonna take a top center and dman for Mtl to move that pick
( Don't even wanna hear about Zibanejad or Skjei) they are not good enough.

Keyhabs, your ignorance is on full display. So according to you it'll take an established top centre AND a d-man to trade for a player that's projected to be a top winger? Is that what you're saying? High draft picks are valuable but still.

My rationale behind the proposal is that Montreal desperately needs centremen, not wingers, which is what 2-4 are projected to be. They can trade down, get the top centre, and flush out their centre depth with quality players later in the first round aka the Morgan Frost of last year's draft.

PS I'm not a Rangers fan.
