Quoting: BorisBagel
Habs pass
Better off keeping prospects and pick
53% Faceoff win rate the past 5 years
Only Perrault and Drouin have more points then Henrique this year
Adding Henrique to 3rd line helps MTL a lot
It also allows Evans to go back to 4th line instead of Paquette how has a 25-30% win rate
This will allow our team more possession time and less time chasing pucks
What their asking for is a long shot Junior player who could be a legit bottom 6 NHL player in 3-5 years
Tuch is a Dmitri Jaskin style player who's entire career will hinge on him getting 100-200 hits a year
This gives us the chance to put together a team that can start winning and improve signifgantly when Edmundston and Price return to our back end.
Im all for thise trade because it comes with Term giving us 3 Centers locked in for 3 year minimum really only leaving us Caufield left to worry about (unlike Suzuki he's not making a case for a payday early on)
