Habs reject 1st one because there are reports that teams will offer a 1st and a good prospect for petry, therefore I rather get that then acquire barrie who is a bit better on offense but worse on defense. Habs reject 2nd, but you could switch Yamamoto for Bourgault or the 2nd for Bourgault

I think if teams are offering a 1st and a good prospect for Petry they are gonna expect significant retention (2M+). He's 34 now and will be 37 at the end of his contract; he's almost guaranteed to get worse at the back end of his contract. His big value is for a team that wants to win now and think that he'll have a BIG bounce back from this season.

Toffoli is good but he's not worth that much (basically 2 1sts and a 2nd you're asking for not to mention the 1st could easily be a top 15 pick in a strong draft class). I honestly thought this offer was already an overpay.
