Montreal's rebuild was ahead of schedule, and now their Cup window is ahead of schedule. I believe they are there now
Now Pittsburgh hopefully realizes that their season was a one-off and that they need to enter a full rebuild.
Dubas should do right by giving Crosby a shot at the Cup and Sid might choose Habs
MTL sends 2026 or 2027 1st and a prospect (Beck or Engstrom) Gallagher (if Pittsburgh needs it to reach the cap floor)
To Pittsburgh for Crosby 50% retained
Habs would still have about 11 million in cap to add via trade or free agency

These are trades that I think would volt Habs into serious contenders
1- Habs make huge trade with Toronto
MTL sends: Hage, 2026 1st round
To Toronto for: Knies
2- Habs trade with Ducks
MTL sends: Kapanen, 2nd round
To Ducks for McTavish
3- Habs trade with Columbus
MTL sends: Dach, Gallagher, 3rd round, Montembeault
To Columbus for: Olivier
Habs get significantly bigger.
Might have to tweak a bit these offers, but those would be the guys I’m I’m trading for
Caufield Suzuki Knies
Slafkovsky McTavish Demidov
Olivier Newhook Bolduc
Danault Evans Anderson
22 Apr 2026 21:07:26
4- Habs trade with Ottawa
MTL sends: Josh Anderson
To Ottawa for: 3rd round pick 2026
23 Apr 2026 19:23:00
I don't see any of these being accepted
Would love to have Olivier though
I wouldn't trade Hage anywhere.
25 Apr 2026 02:53:35
Yeah Olivier would be massive for Habs, imagine he’d be on Habs for this series vs Tampa.
25 Apr 2026 12:35:10
I like Knies but not at that cost.
07 Apr 2026 04:15:18
To Utah
Brady Tkachuk
To Ottawa
Either Crouse or Hayton
And Tij Iginla
05 Apr 2026 19:10:37
Brady Tkachuk from Ottawa to Florida in exchange for Aaron Ekblad.
06 Apr 2026 14:27:01
lmfao
04 Apr 2026 21:35:02
Tom Wilson
Vs
1st pick MTL
Pickford / Engstrom
Beck
Time will shows that Habs need a player like Wilson to become a contender team.
Washington continue the rebuild that had starter with the Carlson Trade.
06 Apr 2026 14:36:50
Lol thats a no.
03 Apr 2026 22:37:00
Brady Tkatchuk
Vs
Seth Jarvis
1st Pick Dallas
Ottawa will want Tkatchuk out
Canes get the toughness that prevent them from going to the final.
Maybe the 1st is too much, or maybe it is not enough!
04 Apr 2026 11:58:36
Jarvis is just as good as Brady. Adding a 1st is laughable.
04 Apr 2026 16:32:15
I agree, but Tkatchuk style is very rare and will cost a lot, maybe a 1st is too much, but it will take more than Jarvis alone! The 1st is almost a 2nd...
07 Apr 2026 08:57:55
Jarvis is the smell in offensive points essentially. I would argue a better defensive player. Brady is s disturber which to me is the only he is better at. Personally it's even to me.
27 Mar 2026 14:27:33
Tor: Woll, Robertson
Phi: 2027 1st (tor)
Solves our goalie issue by running Hildeby as our back up next season instead of losing him to waivers. We trade a player who asked for a trade out of town and get back our first from a terrible trade. This gives the Leafs much less pressure if they are terrible next season as well.
01 Apr 2026 10:40:20
Not sure Philly gives up a first for that.....
04 Apr 2026 11:59:30
Would to see the Leafs get a 1st for that, but it ain't happening.
05 Apr 2026 17:03:56
Just trying to get the Leafs' first back. Philly needs goaltending, so gotta find the right balance. Maybe add a 4th or 5th. But the hardest part is just nailing down the price of the goalie. Signed for another 2 years, young, and can work masterfully in a tandem.
25 Mar 2026 14:35:27
Vancouver
M Rilley
Toronto
J Debrusk
25 Mar 2026 14:33:49
St. Louis
W Nylander
Toronto
R Thomas
25 Mar 2026 17:40:24
Please tell me how a winger is worth a top 15 1c on a 5year contract at 8 mil a season.
27 Mar 2026 13:58:52
Colt, Nylander is a top 5 RW in the game, posts a higher ppg gpg. If anything, I think St. Louis adds a draft pick because Nylander is proven game breaker.
03 Apr 2026 13:22:09
Sorry this is the worts proposal no winger will ever and I mean ever be worth a top 15 1c in the league.
18 Apr 2026 01:18:56
As much as I think Nylander is a very good player, not a game breaker.
25 Mar 2026 00:18:12
Given that Anaheim has healthy scratched McTavish a few games I wonder if the Habs could pounce at the opportunity of adding him.
MTL sends Kapanen, 2nd round and Xhejaj
To Anaheim for: McTavish
25 Mar 2026 11:15:36
If he is a healthy scratch, that's a lot to give up... I would pass.
