Jt Miller bad trades have come and gone. Now we just need Dvorak for Girard ones to go away.

No thanks

change the picks to habs 2023 2nd and mysak

Habs have to at least consider this counter-proposal. Maybe they counter back with Dvorak, Mysak, and the Avs own 2024 2nd rounder ... Girard definitely has more value than Dvorak but I could see him being moved to patch other holes with Byram, Towes, and obviously Makar being the offensive generators on the Avs blueline, and the Avs proved they can win a cup without Girard playing ... he's just a bit too pricy for a #5 d-man in a salary cap world.

Those aren’t the lines because that never gets you Girard.

Nope. I don't think Habs are bundling up those type futures + Dvorak. Girard is good and all but that getting carried away

that's just market value. you got to give to get.

I’m curious on market value. What’s your comparable on this trade then?

just look at any young established dman that's been traded in the last few years

Romanov went for 13th overall is comparable I guess

Probably not in the interest for both teams. Habs don’t want to trade futures and Avs are on record saying Girard is not available. I feel we are beating a dead horse on this one, as the saying goes

he would be the most recent and girards twice the dman romanov is.

girard likely isn't available now but could be by deadline and maybe by the offseason

Edit

Obviously they are at different points in their development curve so I don’t know about how that works out in value.

I expect habs to go after a Barrie or Holl more than Girard. Makes no sense for Habs to be giving up that return at this point of their rebuild

yea girard is further along in development but even when you compare them at the same age girard was still miles ahead.

Sure.
Habs decline any kind of overpayment it would take to get Girard. Makes no sense they would do that at this point in their rebuild.
I expect someone will step up and will overpay for Girard for what it’s worth.

i think it makes a lot of sense for the habs. especially next season.
