Carolina don't want a D man for Necas according to Friedman, Matheson isn't a piece that Carolina wants. No

I would switch it up

ANA gives: Zegras, Gibson
ANA gets: #5

MTL gives: Guhle, #5
MTL gets: Zegras, #10

NJD: gives: #10
NJD gets: Guhle, Gibson

From Anaheim's point of view, it would have to be Montreal, with their $13.6 million in cap space, retaining on Gibson instead of the Ducks.

From New Jersey's PoV, they would have to get more than spare parts from Montreal to move back from #10 to #26 just for Gibson. The Habs would probably have to contribute the Calgary/Florida 2025 first instead of those three players.

Nice try... Guhle isn't for sale.

I wouldn't do Guhle for Zegras 1 for 1. In your proposal MTL doing that AND trading down from 5 to 10?! Not a chance...

Matheson isn't a need, and the rest isn't really what the Canes are looking for. Barron just isn't that good and a late first next year is also pretty meh.

More likely than Armia, Struble and Evans for Holtz and top-10 pick.

Very effortless pass from NJD.

Holtz for 1st+Struble+Evans+Armia, sure fair enough (Armia is a cap dump)

10th overall for John Gibson is a no even if he was retained down to 2 mill

Habs aren’t getting Necas. They don’t have what the canes want.

Terrible deal from NJD point of view.

Zegras starts at 5OA, we don't need to move Gibson and his contract isn't an issue for us, so we'd require payment to make the trade.

This is even worse for Anaheim than the original proposal, which was already quite bad.

Zero chance the Ducks retain 2 million a year for Gibson.

Okay…gotta take it out of Habs side though.
