habs 21

I've heard reports of that kind of deal for Edmundson. How good is he, Blues fans?

Pretty sure the Kings won't jump at that deal, even if Alzner weren't part of it.

I think Mete would likely fetch you more than a lousy 3rd pick, which has about a 25% chance of ever becoming a solid NHLer (200+ games). Mete is 22 and already has 171 NHL games to his name. Habs might suddenly have an abundance of LD, but trade him for a burly 3rd or 4th line winger who can fill a need.

Depends what kind of fan you are. If you're an advanced-stats aficionado, you won't love him. He kind of sucks by the numbers, actually. But if you think there's more to hockey than just numbers -- intimidation (protecting teammates), chemistry, durability, -- he starts to look a lot better.

Adam erne is the burly winger lol

I don't think it's worth it to trade Mete for a third or fourth liner, we already have enough of that and I'm comfortable with byron and lekhonen on the fourth, I'd rather trade Mete for a 4th round pîck if I have to. It's not really worth it but the goal is to clear a bit of cap space, on top of that we have so many LD that do the same things he does.
