  1. Will update as more becomes available. Montembeault to start. https://x.com/CanadiensMTL/status/1767952557601669248?s=20
  2. Not necessarily. This plight of the PP for a few years now is only having a single threat, Weber and now Caufield. PKs neutralized the PP by dedicating a player to that threat. With another threat on the other side of the ice the PK can’t dedicate a player to stoping the left circle one-timer. If they do, they risk being flat footed on the PK, beaten down low or opening the slot. All of which create more threats, which open up Caufield again. It’s how all good PPs function. The more threats on the ice, the more open the biggest threat ultimately becomes.
  3. I think the biggest difference is last year Caufield was on fire on the left side one-timer. This year, he's cooled off so the team has to look for other options. For development of the whole team, that's a good thing, especially if Slafkovsky becomes serviceable as a right side one-timer.
  4. Didn't see a GDT and the game was started. Currently 3-0 Montreal, Primeau in net.
  5. The Montreal Canadiens acquired forward Jacob Perreault from the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for forward Jan Mysak. As per TSN. Looks like a 1-for-1.
  6. I think the only names that are in the mill in any way now, are Allen and Savard. Both of which have another year on their deal, making less need to trade by Friday and for teams really interesting, it hurts their value. The only one Hughes is actively shopping I believe is Allen or Primeau. Have read over the last couple of days Hughes is saying he's ok with carrying 3 goalies to the end of the season. That's probably posturing though.
  7. MSL saying Allen will get the start. I would imagine the Thursday start will be between Allen or Primeau for trade deadline purposes
  8. I didn't think it needed to be stated that it would come with a pre-negotaited contract extension, as almost every other trade of this sort, but that's on me for not explicitly stating that. Rumor is he is at $11.5m AAV for an undisclosed amount of year right now. I would safely bet he will settle around the $11m AAV mark. Suzuki hasn't had a PPG season his entire career(0.78 PPG), possibly this will be his first. At 24 years old, there is nothing to indicate Suzuki is elite level, let alone a franchise center. He's no doubt a good top line or great send line center, which his career numbers clearly indicate. That comment is something you would jump over if someone else said it.
  9. It would be an elite center for a top line center and a young top-4 defenseman with top pair/elite potential. If Guhle wasn't an NHL mainstay, I would say it's about fair. A 22 year old current top-4 defenseman with 100 games of experience has significant value. Most defensemen are in they're mid 20's to be as far along in development. Guhle's current development certainly has him in the top pair/elite category, whether he reaches it or not is a different story. If he were put on Vancouver today, he most likely would be on the 2nd pair, even with how good Vancouver is. As much as I hate advanced stats, jfresh has him at 94% for even strength defense this season, so take that with a grain of salt. I'm not saying Vancouver would have to throw the kitchen sink at the trade, but I do believe in that scenario they would have to add something else.
  10. I would rather keep Caufield. Keep Caufield and Pettersson on different line as they’re both goal scorers. In theory it should spread out scoring and give Caufield easier opponents. I don’t think Guhle and Caufield for Pettersson is a fair trade. Vancouver would definitely have to sweeten the pot some to get that to work.
  11. Sounds like Vancouver is entertaining the idea of trading Pettersson as extension talks have stalled. They still hope they can resign him. The rumors have it, IF they do in fact trade him, they will be looking to bring in players with term. If he is in fact being traded, wouldn't offering Suzuki+ for Pettersson be a good idea? He's an upgrade offensively, Suzuki is having a career year, and Pettersson's value isn't has high as it should be because of the need to trade him. Vancouver will be looking for a replacement at center, and probably more. I don't see a scenario where it would happen without Caufield/Suzuki going the other way, with emphasis on replacing Pettersson at center. I have no idea the the + would entail. Just tossing out the idea here.
  12. When did the rules change that if you make contact with a player carrying the puck, they fall, it's now a penalty? Calling that a trip because of Caufield's back foot is like calling any hit elbowing, because the elbow makes contact.
