<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>so we're supposed to just say "Wow what a good trade!" because some dumb trades were made? The issue is people pretending like a bad trade means a player is good (See montreal fans), hell, Treliving isnt a good GM and might make a really dumb trade but that doesnt mean that Risto isnt an over paid bottom pairing guy that is the last thing the leafs need</div></div>

Did you see the part where I agreed with you that he is an over paid bottom pairing guy? I'm saying its kinda silly of you to act like this would "never happen" because he's "our overpaid bottom pairing guy". Especially when Leafs are specifically linked to Ristolainen by someone like Friedman. Never said its a "good trade" but in terms of it being plausible, it certainly is. Its not like this is a troll post of Ristolainen for Matthews.

Sujet: The Dubas Plan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bvermillion</b></div><div>I like the direction here but still think the bottom 6 is really lacking in offensive ability still. I did one of these last week and had them buying Carter out and going after someone like Ross Colton's RFA rights with their 2024 2nd. Buy Carter out, do that deal with Tampa (theoretically they'll take the asset that they can then use to flip for someone else who is cheaper either this summer or at the deadline), sign Colton to something like 4x3.5.</div></div>

You're definitely not wrong, though I would say Olofsson I think has some untapped scoring. I thought about trying to acquire someone like Sturm from the Sharks. I like the Colton idea, I just sort of think it'd be a tougher trade for Pittsburgh, as they would be directly competing with Tampa in the playoff race. You're right they may just have to do it though.

Sujet: The Dubas Plan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dan10900</b></div><div>Helle 99% isn't gonna happen and doesn't make sense for how expense he will be and what else those assets could be spent on and Dubas has never spent big on Gs, and I'd take Bert/Domi, but I feel like 75% of ACGMs for all teams are signing one of the two so I'm keeping expectations low for getting either. Also, imo we don't need Addison, with Smith and POJ, having 3 of the youngest players on the team being all pure OFDs is not the best</div></div>

Good point about Dubas and goalies. I felt like considering the FA options that a trade and sign of Hellebuyck would be worth it (he's not ancient) but I see your point. I guess looking in FA I just wasn't sure who could be a legit starter other than bringing back Jarry (eh) or someone like Andersen who there's complicated history with. Maybe buy high on Hill, but the history of signing the hot goalie on the cup run is not great.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MaxH</b></div><div>Pretty much... makes this team competitive and see what St. Louis can do with a real team. No prospect is guaranteed to be good. PLD and Huberdeau have proved it. And think of the TV ratings in the city.</div></div>

I generally tend to agree with you in regards to prospects. That's why a team that is ready to make a push, or wants to get over the edge (win a cup versus 3rd round lets say) shouldn't hoard picks and prospects. The Canadiens are not in those situations though. Trading Barron and Harris is just silly with how young they are and they have been playing in the NHL. They're not guys in juniors or overseas. Also, I can absolutely guarantee you that the Canadiens both 1.) will be ****ed with the cap implications of Huberdeau's extension and possible decline and 2.) are not concerned at all about their TV ratings and financial situation.
