<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>markmws</b></div><div>Great questions about Domi. He has mostly played center in Montreal and he sees himself as a center. The problem is that Domi can sometimes play a lot on the peripheries, and at times he struggles to backcheck (which a center needs to do) and in the faceoff circle (again, centers need to do these well) and he has a habit of taking a questionable pentalty <em>after</em> the whistle (think Lucic, but less stupid). I actually like Domi - I think he can be a consistent 20 goal, 50 point top 6 winger in this league, and I think that he is versitile enough to play center and do well there, too. But he's not consistent enough at center to beat out Suzuki, Kotkaniemi or Danault. No matter what people say about Drouin, he has played well and has the most potential of all of the wingers the Canadiens have (with exception of Caufield), and I just don't see them moving Tatar or Gallagher.

Nurse would be a great pickup. It's funny: if you asked a Habs fan 3 months ago if they wanted a left-shot defenseman, they would have screamed for it to happen. Now? With Chiarot, Kulak, Romanov and Mete? Not so much. If the Oilers are willing to trade Nurse, I assume the Canadiens would listen (then again, what do I know ha). Would Edmonton be willing to give up picks or prospects for Domi? I don't know. As an Oiler's fan, what do you think?</div></div>

Sounds like MTL doesn't really need D. I think the Oiler's brain trust really likes Nurse as part of the leadership group, so I could actually see them trading Klefbom instead, which I think would be a mistake. Nurse has a lot of athletic ability and skill but hasn't shown enough puck IQ in my opinion.

Puljujarvi might actually still be traded. He might fit the bill for MTL but he's still developing. I think Domi is further along and Domi sounds very versatile. I'm surprised to hear he plays on the periphery a lot.
