To add to what Memarcus and MG have said, why would MTL gut their depth for yet another right-shooting center?
BUF make be a perennial mess, Thompson and Tuch would command a heck of a lot more than this.

I’m not sure why MTL considers trading a 1st for a 34 year old with 2 goals. He just isn’t the right target for the youngest team in the league.
Laine and Roy are both on expiring deals, and the Habs are accumulating cap space with Laine out, while Roy is in the minors. Neither situation necessitates using a 1st to dump contracts.

TOR Receives:
Weegar
Farabee
2026 3rd round pick
CGY Receives:
Cowan
Robertson
2026 2nd round pick
2027 5th round pick
Ii know there will be a lot of leafs fans on here id even suggest trading Cowan but I think this is fair value. Toronto desperately needs help on D and the fact they couldn't get anything for Marner means they need to bounce back with a win now trade or risk losing the 3 Atlantic spots to FLA, MTL, DET.
As for Calgary they get a nice offensive prospect that won't be ready for 1-2 years which fits if they are able to score a top 5 pick this year, they get someone younger to replace farabee which hasn't worked and then they upgrade a 3 to a 2

Montréal canadiens trade with buffalo:
MTL sends : Dach and reinbacher
To buffalo for Tage Thompson
If habs can put laine on ltir for rest of season or add him in a trade And free up 8.7 extra in cap, if circumstances happen, (rangers and or Pittsburgh out of playoff ) habs should target panarin or Crosby . They got enough ammo in draft capital and prospects to keep hage and still make a trade for either
Lines with panarin
Slavkosky Suzuki Caufield
Demidov Thompson panarin
Bolduc kapanen Newhook
Anderson Evans Gallagher
Lines with Crosby
Slavkosky Suzuki Caufield
Demidov Crosby Thompson
Bolduc kapanen Newhook

I'd do it as the Habs. Thompson fits the age of the group and brings a big skilled guy down the middle. You let Laine walk at season end and go hunting for another RHD in the offseason with that cap space. Losing Reinbacher would suck potentially if he develops, but running a 1-2 punch of Suzuki and Thompson for the next 5 years would be worth it, especially if you grab a guy like Andersson in free agency or even a Murphy or Clifton.

Maybe re-visit these trades nearer the deadline. Think they could happen but I don’t think it’s time yet for the Flames to be giving up on the season yet. Types of trade if the Flames decide to go in a rebuild mode.

No offence but that’s a terrible trade that greatly benefits the Leafs. I don’t think you could even pull this off on NHL 26.
They Sabres would want at least a 1st rounder in return, which the Leafs don’t have.

Avs would want to retain him before considering trade talks, they contending for a Stanley. Think Necus wouldn’t get the wages he wants from another team. No one is going to offer the big wages he might want. I think he ends up re-signing.

Montreal convinces Sid to agree to a trade
MTL sends : Dach, laine, 2026 1st, 2027 1st, the better of 2026 2nd round (beck or kapanen )
To Pittsburg for : Crosby and Malkin (50% retained)
This leaves habs with more cap space to add during the season if need be
1st line
Slafkovsky Suzuki Caufield
2nd
Demidov crosby Newhook
3rd
Bolduc malkin Gallagher

Not going to happen lol. If for some reason it did though, your lines are just wrong lol. Malkin would get moved to LW and likely ride shotgun with Crosby and Demidov moves to RW with them. Newhook or Bolduc are your 3C, the other your 3LW.
But let's come back down to reality and realize Crosby likely only moves at the deadline but the odds are more likely he stays with the Pens and finishes his career as a Pen. Pens will need to rebuild eventually, but there is a tonne of value in learning under Crosby. Hell you can see it in Celabrini just from skating with him for the Worlds and in the offseason.

18 Oct 2025 14:59:24
Sid will retire as a Penguins unless he comes out and literally trashes the organisation. Very unlikely
He would want to go to a Stanley contending team. The Penguins would want multiple 1st round picks (and I assume high 1st round picks) and prospects.
Now imagine if you were a Pens fan and find out that Crosby gets traded to the Habs for Multiple 1st (Late Round picks) and couple of okish prospect. You would be marching to the PPG Paints Arena and asking for Kyle Dubas head on a pitchfork.
Only player I see gets traded is Erik Karlsson and the Pens are going to have to retain salary.
Agree0

22 Oct 2025 18:53:27
Not necessarily. While I share the same opinion that he likely stays a Pen the return wouldnt be anything crazy crazy as he has a NMC and ultimately controls where his destination would be. If he came out and said that he wants one more chance at a cup and id like to do it with *blank team* that's where hes going and Dubas would be settling on the offer as more of a sign of respect to Sid for all he's done for the organization. Closest comparison would be when Kane got dealt to the Rangers for a second and a fourth.
