so im assuming this is at the draft. I thought 1st wouldn't be traded

Holland said he wouldnt trade a first on a rental. But yes i'm sure he would want to trade 2 seconds.

yeah two 2nds is more ideal than a first.

I don't see why Dallas would want Barrie, seems like they are set for offensive defensemen.

Habs reject. It would be 1st, Bourgault,3rd

Is this why everyone wants to trade Samorukov?

Also Montreal just doesn't need mid tier D prospects ... They've got boatloads, why Edmonton keeps sending him here? Just add a boom or bust guy like Lavoie, Maximov or Savoie to the deal if you want to add a decent prospect to the pot that Montreal would actually want.

Samorukov needs to get traded somewhere I dont think its likely edmonton keeps him now that he requires waivers.
