And I seriously doubt Family Man Price is going to waive his NMC and uproot his family to spend a couple of years in Edmonton anyway, even if it is closer to Anahim Lake. EDM should have been thinking big regarding Price 3-4 years ago. They are fools who have been trying to patch up an entire roster around their big two C. Yeah. I think we probably could have teams over paying for Gallagher, and Price is the type of goalie Edmonton should have tried to get after winning the McDavid lottery.

Three old decking guys would be dumb. Holland has made stupid signings and dumb moves, but even he is not dumb enough to gut his D. There is also no way Edmonton isn’t on Petry’s list of teams he wouldn’t go to. All true My angle was really about Smith not being good enough and a playoff Price when healthy is incredible. Oilers need a high skill winger and the Habs aren’t giving one of them up so I thought Gallagher might work because of his net presence. Petry was to replace Nurse. Not the same player to be sure but a top of game Petry is greater than Nurse any day. I didn’t think the salary stuff through and the likely hood of Petry and Price saying yes are low. And a huge IF Price is healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nurse is close to passing him, if he hasn't already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meller93 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I wonder if the devils will be trying to trade down if they don’t need #2, even if it’s swapping with Arizona who would probably be fans of Cooley. What if a three way deal exists where Arizona moves up to 2, and MTL trades for 3, drafting Nemec (my personal #3 pick) As a base, this trade would look like NJD would net Petry and Chychrun, giving up 2nd OA and a prospect like Mukamadulin Arizona nets 2nd OA and Mukamadulin, Calgary’s first rounder (from MTL) and a second round pick from MTL. They give up Chychrun and the 3rd OA. Montreal nets the 3rd OA pick. Give up Petry, Calgary’s pick, and a second round pick. Now tell me where where it’s completely ridiculous hahah. Regardless of my evaluations likely being off, could something like this with tweaks be within reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea ... but the NJDs already have Hamilton and their leading TOI defenceman Severson as RHD ... don't think Petry fits a need for them.

I thought Petry after his second half resurgence wasn’t seen as a cap issue anymore, figured he had some reasonable value. Maybe that’s where my evaluation is most off.

Meller93 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I just envision New Jersey believing they are 2 pieces away from being a dark horse contender (along with progression from Hischier, J. Hughes, and Holtz. Petry probably isn’t the best fit for them as mentioned above though. id love for something along these lines to work though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habsfan89 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I don't believe management will look for anymore pics in this year's draft trading players regarding our players. If they move up Calgary's pick and our 2nd round pick maybe in play to move up. I think they're going to be asking for picks in next year's draft. Drouin Byron Petry Gallagher Hoffman Savard They're going to be asking for picks in next year's draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are maybe two players in the organization that a team might consider moving a top-three pick for - Caufield and Suzuki. If one of those players isn't in an offer, the Habs aren't adding another top-three pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Petry I'm not certain any of those players have any real value at the moment ... and Petry depends on how much weight other teams afford his history and/or the modest "uptick" in his game towards the end of this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan89 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 A trade that could be good for both teams would be us and Vancouver. They're a bubble team that wants to make the playoffs but have little cap space we have Weber's contract that would help them. Vancouver picks 15th how about this trade Vancouver get Calgary's 1st round pick and Weber's LTIR which would give Vancouver $7.8mil in cap space Habs get Vancouver's 1st round pick 15th overall Think it works out good for both teams.

tomh009 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Adding a player that is already on LTIR doesn't create any cap space. It essentially only allows you to exceed the cap by the amount of that player's contract: essentially, your remaining space is the same, only now without flexibility.
