For MTL, I would want to know when this trade occurs? This is a 2023-24 roster. Are we talking next offseason? right now? at the trade deadline of next year?
If this was right now, I would do the deal. But the closer you get to PLD becoming a UFA, the less I want to pay. We can all agree that MTL is PLDs top choice for where he wants to go once he's a UFA. Now does that mean MTL is the only place? Probably not. But the Habs are in a position where they can wait to see if they can get him for free, and risk "losing" him to another team. MTL aren't competing in the next 2 years, and they don't really "need" PLD anyways. He would just be a happy bonus that can fall in their lap, and have zero impact to the Habs current plan if he goes elsewhere.
