- ANA deal is close to fair, but ANA gets another prospect to make it happen. However, I’d be reluctant to trade a ‘26 1st…it is going to be a deep draft.
- the second deal is lopsided for the Rangers. I’d rather have the younger Laine than the bread man any day of the week. Matheson, if traded, will bring in more on a separate deal.

No way in the world The Ducks get two firsts plus a prospect plus Dach for McTavish.

For the ducks trade habs add engstrom only if ducks adds Tristan luneaux
The panarin deal is because I feel like the chemistry he and demidov would have would be gold, and panarin could resign at reasonable price to win that elusive cup.

Adding luneau 6foot1 200 pounds RHD with offence
Actually sets habs dcore for the future
Guhle (2 way d) Dobson (offensive d, 2way)
Hutson ( offensive d) reinbacher (defensive d)
Xhejaj or struble ( defensive d) luneau ( offensive d)
Dobson being the oldest at 25 years old.

So Chicago takes the salary for nothing?
Agree0

31 Aug 2025 12:00:15
Nashan, with the floor being higher, and teams needing to reach it, and with Price’s bonus being paid as of Sept. 1st, his contract will be a cheap way of helping a team reach the floor. (10.5M cap hit for only 4M, and insurance pays half of that. )
Agree1

31 Aug 2025 15:46:14
Floor is 70M and they are at 76M so again why take any salary for nothing?
Agree1

31 Aug 2025 17:03:22
The cost to MTL to move Price’s contract is expected to be a late pick, but Nashan you are 100% correct they don’t need it. I was suggesting basically a 7th swapped for a 6th, but you are absolutely correct that CHI is already at the floor👍.
Agree1

02 Sep 2025 03:47:49
I’m thinking if I was the GM to take Price I’d want a second no worse. No favors as it is tough going in the nhl. I hope they don’t add any more teams to make it even more watered down.
Agree0

03 Sep 2025 01:03:15
NASHAN: I totally agree that they shouldn’t expand, for the reason you stated. Unfortunately I fear they will to take the money that’s available.
The Habs have already ruled out a 2nd to the move Price. There are some teams that want to move out contracts that may need the Price cap hit to remain at the floor. The usual suspects seem to be PIT, SJ and CHI. Perhaps the upcoming GM meetings in Detroit will provide some answers👍.

Calgary trades - Kadri, 3rd round pick 2027
Carolina trades: kotkaniemi, Nadeau, 1st round pick 2026
Ehlers Aho Jarvis
Svech Kadri Stankoven
Hall Staal Blake
Pretty solid forwards that the canes have needed.
Calgary gets a good prospect and a first while taking on the kotkaniemi contract

I think this is a good basis of a deal. I think CAR would have to add a 2nd or similarly valued prospect to complete this offer.
I would also agree that KK gets traded before camp opens. He just isn’t a Rod Brind’amour kind of player.

Hi guys.
I have a crazy trade
WPG
Perfetti
2026 1 Rd
ANA
McTavish
2026 2Rd
WPG gets there 2C who could eventually take over 1C.
I know they signed Toews. But he is 37 yrs old and has been out of hockey for a couple years. Can't expect too much from him. He might be third line centre or fourth line centre or flat out realize his body is not where his heart and mind are anymore. And retire. So many unknowns. Don't get me wrong he would make a great locker room guy, and has a lot to offer in that regards. But on the ice ??? Why not go after a young centre good 2C and bring young driver to compete for cup. ( Might have to find another goalie for the playoffs tho).

I can't see McTavish really being available. That said, Chevy isn't going to give up a comparable young player and a 1st to get him. It's not Chevy's style.
The idea would be to add to the current lineup, not make a trade to fill one hole by creating another.
Agree1

19 Aug 2025 15:22:35
Remove the draft picks and make this trade straight deal Perfetti for McTavish and it could work for both teams. However I don't believe that Chevy would make this trade as he likes Perfetti's progress so far.

Habs should try and do a 1 for 1 hockey trade
MTL sends : Mike Matheson
To kraken for : Jared McCann
At a reasonable 5 million for next 2 years habs get their 2 c until’ hage is ready
Habs trade from a position of strength LHD
I also believe habs should target pending ufa Connor Murphy a massive RHD defensive defenceman which I would pair with Hutson
MTL sends : Josh Roy, a 3rd and a 4th round
To CHI : for Connor Murphy
Slafkovsky Suzuki Caufield
Demidov McCann laine
Dach Newhook Bolduc
Anderson Evans Gallagher
Guhle Dobson
Hutson Murphy
Xhekaj Carrier
Struble reinbacher

20 Aug 2025 15:04:09
Sidekick, there aren't really any 2C's available that are known of at this point, so you'd likely be looking at a project player or an older guy that a team wants to move on from. No possible names come to mind right now though.

21 Aug 2025 13:51:23
I can see something like this happening. McCann can play center, but plays wing in SEA since they’re pretty stocked down the middle.

24 Aug 2025 17:12:40
Yah McCann can play the middle for sure. I think he was in the 40s percentage wise in the dot so that's a spot that need work. He's solid at both ends of the ice. Age is right for where the habs are at. Id say Habs probably add a pick or two depending on what round they are in; but the structure is there for a deal to be made.

13 Aug 2025 13:26:12
Why are yah even considering trading Hutson? I'll admit I was his biggest critic last year in regards to how he would actually perform being an undersized dman. Guy went out and dropped 60+ points as a rookie dman and was part of the reason the Habs managed to be in the playoffs. You don't trade away corner stone dmen when you have em.
Also I can't imagine why NJ would move Hischer or either Hughes brother. They are perfect age for being consistently and the playoffs and potentially coming out of the east if things fall the right way.
There's trades to be made if the Habs want to address the 2C spot. Rossi comes to mind, I'm sure a deal could be made grab McTavish, Bolduc already in the system could tske that spot and run with it out of camp.

13 Aug 2025 20:49:24
I agree with MG69 about there are trades to be made, but id stay as is atm . Im still on team Dach however, I give him this one last shot to prove he can do it.
Im quite happy with the current roster and want to just see these guys grow together.. not a contender yet, but really close, I think this is one more year of growth, then its go time..

Montreal trade with Anaheim .Sign and trade.

For Mason McTavish ( 8 years x 8 million ).
Then re-sign M. Matheson 4 years at 4.5 million .

- if I’m MTL I’m not trading Guhle or re-signing Matheson for 4 years.
- if I’m ANA I’m not accepting any offer for McTavish that doesn’t include a 1st…and I’m probably insisting that it’s for the 2026 Draft.
