NHL rumours 2

Habs
Kapanen
Reinbacher
Pickford or Engstrom or 1st 2026
Vs
Thomas

Hard pay for the Habs but you become a contender team. Suzuki and Caufield go on your 2nd Line, where they belong if you wanna be a serious contender team. Slafkovsky/Thomas/Demidov is your new 1st line. You also keep the top 2 prospects: Hage and Zharovsky.

Blues go on building mode for 2 years. They have young players to build around and it had to the group. With couple top pick, Blues becomes competitive quickly.

03 Mar 2026 02:43:20
I don't hate it.

03 Mar 2026 14:47:18
Sorry not enough.

Hage
Kapanen
Zhorvosky
1st 2026

Don't like it then stop asking. Hage will be included with Kapp or no dice.

03 Mar 2026 14:48:47
I love it. You want Thomas for your #1 center yet don't include your top two prospects? Blues say no thanks. Block number.

03 Mar 2026 15:19:14
That’s a huge price, but even though his price allegedly includes Hage and a 1st, it’s probably accurate.

The prospect capital would be better spent on a lefty center though, IMHO.

03 Mar 2026 18:37:24
Well I wouldn't include Hage, so no deal.

03 Mar 2026 21:39:35
Then you dont get Thomas

Buffalo offering

01 Mar 2026 17:48:55
Kings - Leafs

Kings get Matthews/ Stolarz

Leafs get Byfield/ Lafreniere/ Clarke 26 1st/ 27 2nd.

01 Mar 2026 16:35:11
Kraken-Leafs

Kraken get Matthews/ Carlo/ Stolarz

Leafs get Wright/ O'Brien/ Jugnauth/ Larson/ 26 Seattle 1st/ Rangers 1st 27.

28 Feb 2026 21:26:40
Adam Fox to SJ for Dickinson, Musty and a 2nd.

28 Feb 2026 14:00:20
Not sure how Edmonton could get out of the Jarry deal.. I kinda think would have been better to keep Skinner.

Anyone see any possible way that Jarry and obviously other peices could be moved for Binnington? Oilers are in a short window to win it all, and big game Binnington could be the guy to take them over??

I doubt Oilers would be able to do this.. but if my Habs cant win yet.. wanna see McDavid get a cup

28 Feb 2026 17:53:54
Not sure what picks the Oil have but Savoie maybe another prospect and a 1st plus Jarry for Binnington. I say this as Binnington has proved his play improves immensely the more important the game is.

28 Feb 2026 22:26:08
That's why id like to see him with Oilers. Hes a big game guy, something that Skinner wasn't able to be and I have less faith in Jarry for that.

02 Mar 2026 14:31:33
Blues say no.

04 Mar 2026 05:53:09
In what world would the Blues say no to that? Lol

07 Mar 2026 16:07:20
Ebsolute.. Blues would say no because Jarry is a sieve.

07 Mar 2026 18:26:20
So is Binnington. Why wouldn’t the Blues want a promising young player and a first for a goalie that doesn’t do anything for them?

28 Feb 2026 03:22:16
I like M. knies.
Montreal could really use him in the top 6.

I know the arizona connection and the fact it wont happen but.

Bolduc, reinbacher and a 2026 first.

Bolduc is streaky but young. he will grow and be a threat. just we aren't really in his window.

Reibacher will play next year but once again. What our defensive needs are will not provide growth.

Toronto is in the perfect position to grab two young (somewhat ) unproven kids and a first that they desperately need.

what do you think?

28 Feb 2026 13:56:27
Id like Knies as well. However I don't see this happening, especially being a Leaf. In a couple years he might be the main guy with Nylander on that team with Tavares aging out and Matthews contract expiring.

28 Feb 2026 15:02:39
It's wishful thinking on my part. I know the last trade we did together was Plekanec but this is what I would give up for Knies or a player like Knies with term.

28 Feb 2026 15:52:05
I really wish we could get Wilson haha.. I know hes older. But he's my type of player. Knies is a stud as well. Just dont like to admit it while he wears that other jersey

28 Feb 2026 16:21:16
I agree, Wilson would be a very good slaf replacement on that first line.

28 Feb 2026 17:47:57
As a Leaf fan, Knies is the 1 player I absolutely would not deal. All others are fair game, Matthews and Nylander included.

28 Feb 2026 18:12:56
They just have trade protection so it's a bummer.

01 Mar 2026 00:39:50
I would definitely do it if I’m Montreal. If Hage turns out to be the 2c then Habs top 9 will be set for the foreseeable future, also with Engstrom and Pickford, Reinbacher becomes imo expendable

Caufield Suzuki Knies
Slavkosky. Hage. Demidov
Newhook. Kapanen. Dach.

01 Mar 2026 00:57:25
Right, his mo is exactly what we need.

01 Mar 2026 02:57:29
To be honest, Matthews centering a line with Demidov would probably bring him back to 60-70 goals so I’d be interested.

01 Mar 2026 12:14:10
I would be hesitant to give up that much for 1 player... they need to see what kind of player at the NHL level Reinbacher will be... plus, giving up first round picks doesn't bode well.

02 Mar 2026 02:42:20
For knies I would definitely give up that package… he’s the perfect fit to play alongside Suzuki and Caufield

02 Mar 2026 14:33:47
No for Knies.

28 Feb 2026 01:13:23
Ottawa sens trade Zetterlund + prospect

25 Feb 2026 01:11:52
That wont get ya Nemec.. dont think NJ would part with him

26 Feb 2026 16:27:39
And Habs won't part with Hutson in my opinion.

27 Feb 2026 12:12:25
Habs absolutely wont part with Hutson

15 Feb 2026 19:47:45

19 Feb 2026 18:28:36
Don’t think Laughton gets you Mintyukov.

11 Feb 2026 21:07:56
Detroit sends: Kasper, Compher, Soderblom, Mazur, Augustine, 2026 1st, 2027 3rd.

N. Y. Rangers send: Trochek.

13 Feb 2026 17:37:07
detroit would have to give up

danielson, bear, 2026 st +++.

16 Feb 2026 15:04:06
- Habs need another lefty, and Thomas is a righty. Good player, but the wrong target for the Habs.

- Thomas will require a healthy return if he’s to be traded, but the assets as suggested make this a huge overpay.

17 Feb 2026 01:29:45
@Chickenfoot

Not sure what the Habs have to do with this proposal.

18 Feb 2026 18:07:43
lets see top 15 1c in the league signed for 6 more years at 8 mil.

A 1c at deadline would cost 1st and A prospect

so imagine a ppg 1c center that is 25 signed for 6 more years is going to cost. it just doesnt get done. it would cost MTL

Kappenan, Hage Zhovorsky, 1st 2026

its just that simple.
