MTL says NO like always

Its MTL. The fans have always been this way and always will be

Who's he being traded for when they refuse ? Hall ?

So we're supposed to be overjoyed with trading our best prospect for a pending UFA who likely doesn't re-sign with the team in the summer ?

This is by far the hardest fanbase to negotiate with on this platform. I don't think the sense of trade value is understood because everyone who wears the habs sweater or is expected to immediately is elevated beyond their real worth by the fans. Obviously we don't expect a trade for someone who doesn't work just because the value is fair, however the value being placed on Caufield is immediately far greater than it should be. He's no McDavid... Eichel... Draisaitl... Pettersson
You won't be getting a Galchenyuk for Domi trade every time.

Or maybe some people just don’t want Hall. You can’t blame people/a team for not wanting to make a trade. Just because some people think it’s a good trade on paper doesn’t necessarily mean you should do it. That said, there are a considerable amount of habs fans that are complete idiots.

I personally am high on Caufield, but this is because I was high on him before the draft (I had him ranked 5th). People are entitled to their opinions on players, especially prospects, because they’ve never played in the NHL. The ridiculous people are those that changed their opinion on Caufield immediately after the draft (negatively or positively) without any hockey played at all.
