I think Habs fans wanting Pelletier need to widen their view. He's francophone and producing well in the minors, but he's also 5'9. In a bubble, that's fine.
When your roster already includes Caufield and Gallagher for the foreseeable future, and you already have a number of undersized forwards in your system, you have to consider that smaller players' production typically translates at a lower rate at the NHL level, and a quarter of your roster (or more) will be smaller players.
That's going to limit line options and hold a bigger risk beyond simply production concerns.

For me, Pelletier is not a desirable target. He may be okay on another team, but Montreal has tended to use too many smaller players and I'd like to see us move away from that.

None of these are blue chips prospects… A similar trade could be the Pacioretty one… since none of these prospects are Suzuki type good the second rounder and the contract dump could become a first rounder
The only deal I’d accept as Montreal is:
Toffoli-3rd round pick for Zary/Coronato/Pelletier,Lucic (no retention) and a 2022/2023 first round pick

Patches was and still is a far better player than Toffoli. Not comparable at all.

All 3 prospects are top 50 in the entire league.

That offer is horrendously bad for Calgary.

Well Pacioretty went crazy after his trade and he asked for a trade too so his trade value wasn’t at his peak Toffoli’s value is at a peak right now
