My statement of the Jets taking Petry back referred to them taking him as part of the return for Trouba, not that he would be returning there for a second stint with the team. I should have clarified that better. My bad maybe I wasn't to clear either... I was thinking the Habs could offer Beaulieu + Pleky + 1st pick. Like I had said I didn't do the cap count for both teams nor really checked if the need for Jets to be right on their end... it was just a thought since there seems to be a lot of chatter out there about Nate on market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where the Petry talk comes in - they would have to get him to waive his NMC and trade him somewhere to open up a top four spot on the right side for Trouba. So now the Habs would be dealing away a player who just last year they committed to for six seasons plus come up with some sort of package for Trouba. That seems like a lot of work for someone who has upside but hasn't proven a whole lot so far in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGC21 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 If Petry transitions over to the left side, could the argument be made that a top 4 D could look like: Petry - Weber Beaulieu - Trouba Then you save Markov for the bottom pairing. Of course, I have no idea who you give in a trade to get Trouba (Desharnais + Emelin).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should determine today what would be an official "Ryder, Halak and a 2nd rounder" package for this year's edition. I will start by suggesting : Emelin, Fucale and a 2nd rounder.

But I forgot to mention that the goal was to get our hands on a top 6 FW talent or a top 4 Dman.u Back in the days, Ryder and Halak both had a better value than Desharnais and Condon or Emelin and Fucale have now. I think we should aim higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is just because Trouba is a RD it doesn't mean there'/ no room for him on the Habs. If Petry feels comfortable as a LD then I don't see why MB can't explore a trade for Trouba or even Shattenkirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't played there long enough to really know one way or the other. By the time he plays there and gets comfortable, Trouba probably will have been dealt by then. I don't see Winnipeg dragging this out to the December 1 deadline and it's going to take way more than a couple of preseason games to know if Petry is comfortable - and more importantly, competent - on that side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 2 hours ago, Trizzak said: Nashville? San Jose? Those would be my guesses. Their backups are Marek Mazenec and Aaron Dell (who is basically another Condon from last year). Given there will be other goalies available for free - Berra is on waivers today - any return would be minimal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why those two were tossed into deals. Ryder had value despite being a UFA and being on a down year. Halak was an up and coming goalie (who should have been playing for Atlanta and included in the Hossa deal but because Gainey refused to add Chris Higgins it went to Pittsburgh). DD/Condon/2nd is a close attempt but it's certainly a worse package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Ryder sort of gets a bum rap from Habs fans. The guy was a good goal scorer. Heck, I wouldn't say no to Ryder as a 2nd line FW even now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why these scenarios are laughable, of course, is less that the players implicated are garbage (although Condon is) than that they involve acquiring a perceived 'core' player in return for multiple assets who aren't that. (Ryder was good, but a secondary piece; DD is useful, but only under certain conditions; and goalies, bafflingly, always seem under-valued on the trade market). That's why ehjay's Pleks scenario isn't laughable, while these other ones are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
