I realize Caufield is a fan favourite and habs fans don't want to trade him but I think we could afford trading him with the Hoffman signing.
Caufield, Guhle, Drouin and a 1st for Jack Eichel

Hoffman - Eichel - Anderson
Toffoli - Suzuki - Gallagher
Lehkonen - KK - Armia
Byron - Evans - (Perry?)
Paquette, Poehling, Belzile

Edmundson - Petry
Chiarot - Romanov
Kulak - Savard
Wideman

Price
Allen

I realize it's a lot to give up but the team would be much improved imo.
and it would take a lot to get BUF to trade Eichel within the division. I see Eichel as a top 5-6 center in the league.

Definitely an improvement at centre but it also means we have a dangerous top 6 instead of dangerous top 9

I don't really consider a 3rd line centered by Evans "dangerous" to be honest

This team is better--- we tend to forget that Weber was a disaster during the regular season---
- bigmacdaddy

I'd say we're lateral to last year at best. Hoffman is a great upgrade to our top 6, thank (frank) there won't be anymore Lehkonen, but we also lost Danault and Weber which are big blows. I think Savard is worse than Weber in every way and Danault isn't replaced whatsoever. If we get a good center and maybe a mobile dman too we're defintiely improving over last year.

Did you see Weber in the regular season---- that was a trainwreck, I'll take Savard and extra cap space all day.

It’s the wingers that I am talking about, Evans is not a top centre but the wingers will make the line better

If Eichel was 100% healthy, sure, but I'd have a hard time trading Caufield with both the injury uncertainty and his big contract along with it.
- apex123


Not trading Caufield for Eichel, I was too impress by the kid in the playoff after what 4 Regular NHL games ?

if you want to talk KK + 1st, 2nd and ++ sure

but the second they insist on Suzuki or Caufield you tell them (frank) you and hang up

Weber still managed 19 points injured with the habs playing very inconsistent hockey the entire regular season and he still managed to defend well injured in the playoffs. For a guy who's supposed to be kinda mobile and I've seen some reports call Savard a "puck mover", his point totals the last couple of years are horrible. If he plays like he did 5 years ago, then it's a different story. In any case, I think we're really going to miss Danault on defensive zone face offs and face offs in general.

Honest question-- what do you think is the absolute upside of Caufield?? You wouldn't include a 30 goal winger for a top 5 center is asinine to say the least.

Is it certain he'll be a top 5 center after his surgery? Then there's also the fact Caufield is in his entry level contract and Eichel signed to a huge one.

I woudnt fall off my chair if coco end up being a point per game guy

so 60 pts is a safe bet

Then top 5 center Eichel...maybe, but one that hurt and already whinning...

not talking one on one, but considering the fact we would need to add++

Pass for me

I just would trade a winger for a center--- cause right now our center depth might be the worst in the league-----------------------------------------------------by far
