Carolina and Habs have to put their differences behind them for this one lol

To Carolina Tatar + Kulak + 2nd 2021

To Montreal Skjei + Suzuki + Fleury

Carolina gets a top 6 winger + a bottom 4 dman plus a decent pick next year.

Habs get a top 4 LHD and 2 more prospects to go with the youth movement not to mention brothers of current Habs players.

To L.A. Mete

To Montreal 2021 2nd

Next season Habs line up

Drouin-N. Suzuki-Gallagher
Domi-Kotkaniemi-R. Suzuki
Lehkonen-Danault-Armia
Byron-Evans-Weise
Extras Weal, Hudon

Skjei-Weber
Chiarot-Petry
Romanov-C. Fleury
H. Fleury

Price
Demchenko

So a few things. I don’t think hurricanes make that trade as that is now 2 D off there top 6 and don’t have much in the system to replace with. Second I don’t think Montreal will want to trade Mete unless it’s an out of this world package, he is a smart young D with loads of potential and already has 100+ NHL games. And lastly the predicted lineup is way too hopeful, Ryan Suzuki will not be NHL ready for at least another 2-3 years and having Cale Fleury above his older brother Haydon is a bit of a reach.

Your fist comment makes sense if we were talking about this season, however this would have to happen in the off season and by then Vatanen, Pesce and Hamilton would all be back from injury and the top 6 would likely be Slavin-Hamilton, Vatenen/Skjei/Gardiner-Pesce, Vatanen/Skjei/Gardiner-Van Reimsdyk pushing the LHD Fleury off the roster. Second point I don't think Mete is working out and now may be when we get the most for the kid, he simply gets pushed around too much in front of the net and his shot is not that hard enough to be a top 4 Damn if the Habs want to move him to the wing I think he would do better there as he has the skill and speed to play forward. Third your right projecting R. Suzuki in the top 6 is a stretch but we are weak on the right side and he would easily be the best available option and last Cale is a RHD Hayden a LHD Sklei and Chiarot are better Dmen and the Habs management value Romanov too much to send him to the AHL or as a 7th dman therefore Hayden gets carried as the 7th Dman.

So Vatanen Van-Reimsdyk and Edmondson are all UFA and Hamilton in a year is a UFA. So losing those 2 could be bad for them. And I say we can agree to disagree on Mete because I’m a fan of his game and I can see him being a Ryan Ellis type player. And Ik Habs RW is week but pushing Ryan that high is a reach as he’s just doesn’t look ready in the chl to go up against NHL players.

I see your point about the FA issue so maybe instead of Kulak you sign and trade Mete as part of this package. I also like Mete he is a great skater with a lot of silky hands but for me just gets pushed around too much it is most prevalent in the stretch run to the playoffs when the checking gets tighter. As for Ryan I do not follow JR hockey but knew our right side was weak so just kind of put him in there as a fill in cause I do not see anyone else in the organization filling the role. If we can find a middle six forward in FA then I would allow Ryan to develop more as well I was just working from what we have in the system or were getting in this proposal.

If Hurricanes make this deal, check the GM for drugs, because he's probably on them
