Don't worry, they are the opposite of patient executives.

Are you being sarcastic or no?

No. They will make a move

I sure hope. Im okay giving up poulin because he will be traded in a few years anyways when rebuild fully starts. Empty the tank with this core until they retire.

Montreal takes that all day, good trade

VAN decline, they can get a better return than that.

Just an FYI but you can’t do conditions on picks based on a player re-signing per the new CBA.

What if it was a 2nd instead of a 3rd?

Did not know that, thank you.

Yeah they would probably accept, but they don't need any bottom 6 depth players coming back.

Riikola and 2nd gets the deal done then.

VAN doesn't need Riikola

2nd for Jake then lol.

I would say no to this trade for the following reasons.

You move chiarot for Pettersson. Yes he’s younger but he’s locked up for several years and Habs have Romanov, guhle, norlinder, fairbrother, struble, harris all coming in the next 1to 3 years. You are not getting much offense out of him and this will stifle what is coming.

Then in Danault you’re bringing back a winger that we have plenty of and you moved him to centre. He only wins 38% of his draws. So if you move danault bring back a better Centre or why move danault?

Burke is patient. Believe it he was fired in sixth years as Leafs GM/President as then he complained that the Leafs owner didn't give up enough time to make changes.
Surprised Burke hasn't blamed the Pittsburg media or fans for the state of the Pens during his short tenure

Valid point about Pettersson and his contract, and the potential log jam coming up on the left side
