<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leahyl29</b></div><div>You should read my description before you comment next time. “ I’m not entirely sure on his trade value so I just ended up doing the 29th pick.” also if they keep both that means they’re gonna have to trade Dvorak and good luck with that.</div></div>

Dach was traded for 13overall coming out of a very slow career start. He had his best season with us and hes signed under 4M for 3 more years, wich looks to be a bargain pretty soon.

As for the C, position with or without Dubois, there is absolutly no problem. Both Monahan and Dach played wing last year and Dach was very good with Suzuki and Caufield.

You never have to much center depth. Dvorak can also be moved to the wing if not traded, hes not part of the future anyway.

Last thing, the PLD drama is pretty much over IMO, with his 5-6 teams list, MTL lost a lot of leverage. Pretty sure the Monahan signing indicate that trade talks are dead. And if not, Dvo will be in the package to make the money work. Yes his value is very low but its not negative either. Hes a reliable 3C under 5M for only 2 more years. Slightly overpaid but he's at least worth 3M AAV.

All of the top 5 players in this draft would be 1st over Laf in 2020.

I would even say no teams in the top 10 would trade their picks for him. He's a good player and I dont want to diminish him but his progression since drafted does not jutsify that kind of gamble. We got Dach for 13th overall and late picks and he has basically the same kind of progression since drafted while playing in a premium position.

Speaking of Dach, he's already not that far from PLD, younger, cheaper for at least 3 years. Im not saying it would not take that kind of offer to snatch PLD but it would be such a dumb move. Chances are Dach at 25 years old will be as productive and even if not, he's more reliable overall.

I wouldnt even do a 1v1 PLD-Dach trade for those reasons even if PLD is more valuable right now.

Oh and I like Barbashev, Hathaway and Soucy as UFA targets but its not yet the time to spend that kind of money and term commitment in our rebuild

As a habs fan, I couldnt hate this more but I think you nailed the first 9 picks! I see it go exactly that way

BUT, I also think you completly missed the next 10 picks haha.

Pellikka, Ritchie, Simashev and Draigcevic wont go before Dvorsky, Moore, Perrault, Barlow.

I wont go into details but overall, the first group of 4 I juste mention have so much more question marks than the second group and thats why I think most of them will fall deeper than expected.

Dvorsky, Perrault, Moore and Barlow also have a lot of questions marks but most of them have more than one prime attributes scouts are looking for!

Side notes:
Not having Yager in the top 20 is crazy.
Gauthier will go 1st round
Nate Danielson is a gem and his complete package tool will make him a top 15 pick.

I say all that in all modesty, your point of view is as good as mine but those are my toughts!

Sujet: Robertson trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffGorton</b></div><div>Suzuki isnt holding out on a contract. Suzuki is a future captain. Center is a higher value position than a winger.

Harley is nowhere near the same as Guhle. Harley has the same floor but way lower ceiling than Guhle. Anderson is better than Gurianov. And for the 1st, most likely a 6-10 pick in 2024. A stronger draft than 2022.

You also forgot about the Khudobin cap eating which easily costs a team a 2nd rounder at the very least</div></div>

You can tweak it the way you want, there is like 10 person on your post telling you you're way off, some not even Dallas fans.

Yes suzuki is under contract and play center but no matter how much dollars he sign for Robertson is worth it and as a much higher production rythm.

Maybe anderson is better than Gurianov but also older and more expensive for a longer period of time.

Yes Guhle should be better than Harley but both still has everything to prove in the NHL.

The pick cant be top 10 in 2023, top 5 in 2024 after your conditions, with that roster anyway its probably not even possible.

You are just wrong my friend its okay

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffGorton</b></div><div>Did you forget the Debrincat trade? Hes better than Robertson by a decent way and hes only went for 7th overall (Guhle and our 1st) and a 2nd + 3rd (Anderson + Khudobin cap dump)</div></div>

First of all, he's not. Pretty sure Dallas would never have traded him for the 7th overall. Then you cant compare value in a trade and value in another trade. There is always age, contracts, capspace, where teams are at in the process for contention.

But lets just compare value here for fun. Would you trade Suzuki for
Gurianov, big strong 20 goal winger similar to Anderson
Harley, 1st round pick defensman same age as Guhle and drafted 2 spots after
A 1st that will never be top 10 with all your conditions
A 4th and a 7th

Even if the comparisons are not 100% accurate, pretty sure your answer is a big fat no!

Sujet: Next season
Man, I'm not even that high on Mailloux and Norlinder but all of this to get rid of 1 year of Byron and 2 years of Hoffman while getting back a prospect with one of the worst injury history of all time?

Byron will probably get buried on LTIR and if not, I think we can manage the last year of his contract..

Getting rid of Hoffman will be steep but a 2nd and a B prospect should do it or else we can wait next summer so the price can get less expensive.

I get Mailloux's background but he's still a 1st round pick with good potential and the 2023 2nd will be top 40. Its 2 assets worth keeping in a rebuilding context. I get that shedding salary is hard nowaday but Hoffman and Byron are not that much of a problem IMO. We need ONE salary move to be okay for Dach until next year, I think we can figured it out without giving up that much.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ploppz</b></div><div>Montembault is as bad as your whole team was last season, please... He's had 1 year where his save% was above .900 since he was in college, and that's for 11 games in the AHL lmao. Please educate everyone on how he's "improving".</div></div>

Well, it's pretty simple, he had a couple of games where he was the only reason we got a W behind terrible defensive performances. At the beginning of the year, he was spectacular on some saves and let some disgusting goals go in. At the end he was much more consistant on 60 minutes. Its easy to look at stats and make them tell you the story you want to ear, if you watched every game in a very very bad habs seasons like I did, you would see the improvements.

Anyway its not like im saying Montembeault is the next best thing, I just told the guy he wasnt as bad as he described him. I know he wont ever be more than a #2 but at his age and with what he did last season, he showed enough to be confident about him being capable of handling 20-25 games espically if the team in front of him gets better.
