Sujet: Huge trades for habs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BadaBing</b></div><div>Why would the HABS take Nico when we can get the same player and possibly better in the draft named Shane Wright for $900K per year and younger.

NO THANK YOU!! Habs can trade Anderson and Harris next year for a Top 3 pick!</div></div>

dude take the blue and red glasses off for half a second.

Nico Hischier is 23, put up 60 points in 70 GP last year (would've led Montreal in points per game and been a single point behind Nick Suzuki for overall points), is signed to an arguably team-friendly 5x$7.25M, and is the Devils' captain. Trading him just to move up from #2 to #1 would be silly for Jersey - there's just not enough difference in projections for the top handful of guys in the draft this year to justify that kind of overpay.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Juiceman</b></div><div>Do you seriously think the Canucks would trade Hughes for Mercer, Severson, and Gritsyuk. I think you misplaced Holtz and the two first round picks into the wrong trade. You are really overrating Caufield if you think he’s two first round picks more valuable than Holtz</div></div>

No. I don't think a single team in this ACGM actually makes any of these trades. But why would you think the value is off here? Mercer is an A prospect, Gritsyuk is absolutely tearing up the KHL and had an NHLe of 61 this year, and Severson is the "RHD" you guys have been demanding in every trade on here including Garland or Boeser. Should there be a pick in here? Maybe. I don't think the total value is nearly as far off as you're making it seem though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PaulieWalnuts</b></div><div>I like the guys targeted in the trades.

Mangiapane is a good shout for a "we can't extend him" situation but my feeling is that Calgary have more room to maneuver than Wild or Canucks and thus would have to send more value back to them.
But given the heat one usually gets from trading for someone like Fiala in AGM I don't blame you for targeting someone else haha.

I'm a fan of Vancek's game but would prefer to leave Blackwood out of the deal, seems like an overpayment to me and Zacha is expendable anyways.
I think it would do wonders for Blackwood if he worked in tandem with someone you actually could rely on to either split the net with or actually outright win the starterspot from him.
In any case, I really don't want Blackwood traded unless absolutely necessary.

Petterson should be fine to replace Graves but signing Lagesson for the second pair doesn't sit right with me.
Even though he had decent possession metrics with the Oilers he was just batched into that Kulak trade.
Might be wishful thinking on my part but I'd hope that one of Bahl or Walsh would be ready for a full-time NHL job by 22-23.</div></div>

I keep trading Blackwood in these because I think he’s goneeeeeee

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>they came into the league together, Zuke from OHL and Hughes from USHL, sure Hughes was 2 years younger and thus less developed physically but its not like Zuke was 6'5" 205 lbs either. They have been in the league the same number of season and both played for middling teams, they are very comparable players. I don't know why you are so offended about that, it's not like I said Hughes was a bust or sucked or anything. I just said that they are both among the leagues best young centers and the gap is not as wife as what you think it is.</div></div>

Suzuki is a great young player, and I think one could make this argument that the gap between him and Hischier is not that much (would be hard to say if Price made up that gap without knowing if he is healthy).

But Hughes is on a completely different level.

In their D+3 seasons,

Suzuki: 0.57 ppg
Hughes: 1.14 ppg

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsLoveZuki</b></div><div>I see a lot of people especially habs fan, saying that the Hughes for Suzuki trade is unfair for Montreal. However I do see where it can come from. Hughes probably has 85-95 point potential, looking to be a similar player to a Crosby, but with less offensive upsides. Suzuki should be in the 75-80 point range and he looks like the next Bergeron. For a very long time in the league, Bergy was on of the most valuable players in the league. With Price in the trade (who is now not a ? on injuries as he played yesterday) the trade is much fairer then non habs fan may think.</div></div>

Hughes has a lot more than 85-pt potential. He was on 94-point pace this year as a 20-year old. And it’s not like it’s coming out of nowhere. He has one of the most (if not the most most) impressive junior careers offensively, was a unanimous #1 pick in good draft year.
