How a PLD should be handled on the MTL side of things

Let's see how a Dubois trade could be created by Montreal.
Choose one per box.
Opposite to what's being leaked in the media I see CBJ having no bigger end of the stick in this situation, Montreal has plenty of center depth (No one compares to PLD yet) and is in no rush to make another splash after going all out this offseason. In prior years I wouldn't say so but after committing contracts to bigger skilled guys the size isn't an issue anymore in Montreal.

Let's start with the main course, the bigger piece of that trade should be an A prospect or the pair of picks.

- Jesperi Kotkaniemi
- Cole Caufield
- 2021 1st, 2021 2nd

Next you'll want to add a B prospect in it to reach the fairness level of trade value and this is where Montreal's prospect pool is important, you'll be able to send one and won't be thin at any position.

- Jordan Harris
- Jesse Ylonen
- Jan Mysak

To finish you need a roster player to even out the cap.
Depending on which set you end up with I'm convinced Montreal will get a late pick back as Bergevin showed us through his tenure, I think we could see anything from a 4th to a 6th round pick coming back.

- Arturri Lehkonen
- Jordan Weal
- Paul Byron
