Too costly and no cap space even though that isn't a problem.
- Marwood

Yeah, that's the main issue. Sven or Sutter would have to be dumped somewhere

Because the goal is eventually a cup, not just the playoffs



You guys aren't thinking big enough
- Nucker101

It’s as big as he can think 🤔

Its all just mathamatics now,
33 games remaining and we have 58 points.
What is the magic number to clinch a spot, 94?
So we need 36 points.
It does seem, with our games in hand, and if we take care of the divisional games, we are in.

Pretty straightforward the task at hand.

Which is still bigger than a stupid Newfie can.

Wow - the go to Newfie joke - didn’t see that coming

How about Max Domi as a playmaking winger for Bo? Provides some grit for the playoffs and fits in with the age group of the core.


What would you offer?
- Nucker101

Damn that’s a tough one. 1st up I think Gaudette can use a winger. Bo’s line has been very solid.

I think they need top 6 F’s most. Baertschi in a package but not the main ingredient. We need salary out to make it work. That said it sounds interesting but difficult also.

How? His name has been popping up in rumours and he'd be perfect beside Bo. They've known each other since they were 10 years old as well so he'd be a seamless fit into the locker room.

And he brings that grit that people are always asking for.


It's basically as logical of a trade idea as anyone can come up with.
- Nucker101

Because everyone knows you don’t want to trade futures for a playoff push. MTL will want picks and prospects

What an absolute load of utter horse sh!t.

Now pres, just because you dont get it doesn't mean it isnt true
Just means you didnt get it....as usual

Also this is not a rental move and with Tanev situation unknown isn't the greatest long term need on D? Why give up on OJ the top D prospect they have?

Could do OJ + a lower pick
- Nucker101

I 1st thought of OJ also. Left side looks good enough to move him. Domi is RFA with arb rights next year making it even more awkward. What would his ask be?

Huge
Edler
Benn/Fantenberg
Rathbone down the road

Sven/OJ/Lockwood/4th

Sven for cap $$$’s
OJ for top prospect
Lockwood cuz see no opportunity here
4th as a guess & hope is enough

Also this is not a rental move and with Tanev situation unknown isn't the greatest long term need on D? Why give up on OJ the top D prospect they have?
- NuckUp

OJ is LHD
Woo is RHD
Rafferty RHD

Looking like Rafferty has passed OJ on the prospect list

OJ is LHD
Woo is RHD
Rafferty RHD
- Nighthawk

Woo is years away. Rafferty is a good story for depth but at his age not a long term solution. The talent level matters more then shot hand. Better talent allows to space out minutes among D pair.

Only in NHL readiness not long term plans.

- NuckUp

Still we have RHD depth in the pipeline.
LHD not so much but easier to fill also.

Huge & Edler eat up the minutes.

You might be right there. We'll have to see if Rafferty is the real deal

Correct you must be

Max Domi eh....

To Montreal:
Adam Gaudette

If that’s the price it forces Sutter to 3C... ouch
That might make MB giddy. Hope we could tame the deal down. To keep Gaudette is important so rather add a pick(s).

- SMBDragon

Real deal meaning?
Until he gets his chance, and if he can play meaningful minutes in NHL, he is a 24 year old Dman tearing up the AHL. I hope he can be a late blooming, undrafted gem, not another Pouilot. Please be the "found money" that this team needs.
