Agree with your on both points, I'd say remove the 2nd on the chucky trade

Also, not convinced on Tkatchuk @ 3OA and don'T think Dibson is there @11, I think you go with goal scoring and needs something like Zadina/JK. If you're lucky, you get Hugues at 10 but I doubt it happens


<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Truebeliever</b></div><div>I like the Toews trade -- captain for captain and a deal that would help both organizations. Chicago can't get away from the Seabrook and Keith contracts, so they need to find some breathing room beyond Hossa retiring. With Hossa out, the Hawks have $11M to sign eight players.

My two faults:
1) I think you're underestimating Galchenyuk and overestimating Bellows in this deal. I think you'd get more from AZ, COL or LAK.
2) You have about $9M in unspent cap space and no solution for Shaw and Byron being out until December. Surely you can shore up the lineup a bit more</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DomCholette</b></div><div>He would be a great fit but you can't do this with your 3OA... you will need to trade down from 6 to 10 (Det,Van,Chic,NRY,EDM) as he is ranked around 10OA.
Maybe
Det: 3OA for AA + 6OA.
Van: Hutton LHD+ 7OA for 3OA
Chi: Saad+8OA for Shaw +3OA
NYR: Names+ 9OA for 3OA
EDM: Drai+10OA for Pacc + 3OA... THE BIG TRADE!!! :cool</div></div>

If you want JK, then the Chicago offer is the best one, I think he'll be there and you get Saad while getting rid of injury prone Shaw.

If you want to remain fairly high, then the Det trade makes lots of sense but I think Detroit goes with a D, therefore have no need to move up to get either Bogvist or Hugues.

All that to say MB needs to figure it out and then tell us what the hell did he entertain thru the process to convince us he hasn't completely lost it

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ThatGuy</b></div><div>I can understand what you are saying… That being said, everyone has their own opinion on what a player is worth. My "CF" opinion on a particular player is definitely different from, let say, Bergevin's opinion, as his opinion is most likely different than every other GM and owner in the league. The only difference between us and them is that they have the power to pull the trigger. Now, when a trade does happen IRL, it’s not necessarily a perfect representation of what the player is realistically worth. People under/overvalue players all the time. IDK why you are being critical of people sharing their opinions of certain players. Yes, there are a lot of brutal ARMCHAIR-GM roster put together, but there are also some good ones. I, for example, being a Sens Fan, see people significantly undervalue Karlsson all the time. So I like to shed my Opinion on the situation by commenting or creating my own ARMCHAIR-GM roster to put things into perspective. I have never expected or thought that I could directly influence a trade made by a NHL GM IRL through Cap Friendly (And I hope no one does).

Regarding the Price trade. I like to think I am making an informed/realistic proposition. For Instance, I know the cap is most likely going to go up from 75M to 80M next year. I know that the flyers are probably not going to resign players like Filppula or Read (Freeing up, 8+ Million in cap space) but need to save cap space for some of their up and coming prospects (Provorov + Konecny &gt; Patrick). And, most importantly, the flyers have not had a good goalie in like 15 years which has greatly affected their postseason success. Everyone in that Organization desperately wants a true Starting goalie (the most important position in hockey IMO). Now for me, the biggest mistake people make on here is overvaluing High Draft Picks. Having a top 10 drafted player in your roster does not guarantee you a #1 Center or a Top 2 D. So I definitely think that the Price Trade is a more than fair/realistic deal for both sides. However, do I think it will happen? Absolutely not. I don’t think the Habs can afford to trade away another key player and Fan Favourite. They still have a business to run.</div></div>

I agreed they aren't likely to trade Price but instead of rejiggling the same ideas all the time, tought it was interesting to float the idea of having one of the best G in the league go to a team that has been looking for one for years now.

To put things in perspectives, look at what Colorado got for Duchesne, ton of picks and young prospects, I'd like to believe Price has a lot more value than Duchesne therefore Patrick, a first and Hart seemed like good value for one if not the best guy at the position. Does that mean Philly can fit the money in their long term strategy, not sure nor do I care, I'm building the Mtl roster :)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BrandonMcD11</b></div><div>Youre crazy if you think we can get all that from philly for price. Their future 1C, their future starting goalie, and a first round pick. For a goalie that just came up a terrible season and an injury. Also whats with the scherbak trade? Have you watched any habs games while Sherbak was playing, the guy is going to be good, a huge part of this teams future</div></div>

if you trade Price and expect JT to come, then you need to have someone decent in nets from day 1. While I agree Scherbak should be good, we have tons of wingers and no more NHL ready goalie in this scenario

As for the Price trade, it all depends on whether Philly wants to get a goalie now and go through the good days of Voracek, Giroux and the older guys or whether they want to build for 3+ years from now. They have the cap space, they have the need, who knows
