Do you guys think Nylander would score 60+ playing for the Habs? At center no doubt?
Yeah sure the value is probably correct but this, as of right now, doesn't make sense for Montreal. We'd be paying 7.5M for a guy who probably won't produce as much as he did in Toronto as he was with Matthews, and who isn't playing center for Toronto, and all that for a guy who is half the cost, actually playing center for the Habs and well, one of our only good D prospects right now in Juulsen, and a 2nd rounder.....
If Nylander comes in and scores 60+ while playing center for the Habs at a 1st line minute rate, Then I'd be way more inclined but otherwise, I don't think its prudent. We are getting what we'd probably get from Nylander with Domi already and losing Juulsen and a 2nd only cripples us in other areas.
And just food for thought, Domi over the same age and games in his career as Nylander has scored at a ~0.65 PPG pace while Nylander has a ~0.75. PPG. Except one guy was playing next to Auston Matthews and the other was playing in Arizona......
Domi as of right now is a point per game playing center on a team that isn't supposed to be good this year and won't cost us 7.5M in his next contract.
There is really no point to the Habs to making this trade. Even if the value of the trade is probably fair, it doesn't mean the Habs should do it.
