Montréal trades for Crosby, this proposal I feel is fair or at least a start
MTL sends : Dach , kapanen, engstrom, mesar and ( both 2nd round 2026 or 1st round 2026 top 10 protected)
Pitt sends Crosby
Habs get to keep hage , reinbacher and fowler making their draft picks expendable
Lineup with Sid
Slafkovsky Crosby Caufield
Demidov Suzuki laine
Gallagher Newhook Bolduc
Flo xehjaj Evans. Anderson
That’s a scary forward unit for any team

Its a good potential offer but the Habs would have to give up Dach, one top end prospect instead of several bottom 6 ones and make it 2 #1 picks, unprotected to be fair for Crosby.

Dubas probably bites tbh, but that's because he has poor asset management abilities.

If the Habs are in a good spot come the deadline then it will cost them less IMO as I think Crosby would only waive to the Avs or the Habs and the Avs don't have the pieces the Habs do to make a deal happen. But I still think we are more likely to see him stay with the Pens.

Agree1 Disagree0

15 Sep 2025 20:08:42
I tend to agree with MG, as usual. Crosby would be a great addition to any lineup, but the Habs would do better at the deadline to add a less expensive 2C if it is necessary to do so.

The Habs have built great asset depth, but it’s tough to lose so much, even for Crosby, for a couple of years.

Agree0 Disagree0

If mctavish is a no go , habs should inquire about Anton Lundell…. Imo Lundell is a perfect fit for 2 c , he plays a 200 foot game and put up 45 points centering a 3rd line , so that number should go up playing on the 2nd line with demidov and laine
MTL sends hage and a 2nd round mtl
To FLA for lundell

Habs trades with rangers for Lafrenière
MTL sends Matheson and 2027 1st round
To nyr for Lafrenière

Slafkovsky Suzuki Caufield
Demidov lundell Laine
Lafrenière Newhook Bolduc
Anderson Evans Gallagher

MTL trades with devils
Habs send : Kirby Dach , 2nd round (Columbus) , 3rd round , Sean Farrell
To devils for : nemec

Guhle Dobson
Hutson nemec
Xehjaj carrier
Struble reinbacher

- why would the champs trade a key piece for futures when they’re clearly a candidate for a Cup this year?

- Habs are on record that Hage won’t be traded. You’re a Hab fan and you know this.

Agree2 Disagree1

07 Sep 2025 02:10:26
Because Florida is 4.5 million over the cap and by the new playoff cap rule they won’t be able to activate tkatchuk without a trade . I know habs don’t want to trade hage .. but for a 23 yr old cost control 5yrs 5million legit 2 c , I think they should do it ! I personally value more hage than a 2026 15-25 1st round pick but I think Florida does too

Agree1 Disagree3

09 Sep 2025 15:02:21
From how I read it the lineup just has to be cap complient. I do think Florida is going to have to get creative and may need to move some guys out; but that's why they pay someone the big bucks to do so.

As for the trade Lindell isn't going anywhere. Florida looking to 3peat this year and Lindell is a big part in rhat potentially happening.

Habs should just ride it out with their roster. Goaltending is still meh in the grand scheme. There's hope for Dobes to have continued success and Monty to take another step. Goalies are so hot and cold tho so we shall see. But Dach or Bolduc could take that 2C spot and run with it out of camp and into the season. Demidov could get some looks at 2C as well. No need to make a trade involving any 2026 1st until the deadline where they can see where they are at in the standings.

Last year's playoff appearance was ahead of schedule for the Habs. And they shouldn't look to get of course because of it. Hughes has the chance to make them great again if he builds the roster properly and players develop as they should.

Agree2 Disagree0

10 Sep 2025 03:00:58
I tend to agree with MG. Why not see what you’ve got and accumulate more cap space for a deadline deal, if needed and warranted? There may be a hot deal to swoop in on, especially for teams that took care of their cap situation early?

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Sep 2025 15:05:26
Im with MG69 on this. Everyone had an extra year of experience, hopefully everyone is healthy( im thinking of Dach most of all)
Let em play! Interested to see how Bolduc and Dobson fit in, and who will replace Savard, Armia and Dvorak as penalty killers..

Excited for this season!!!!

Yep Pinball is back being September.

05 Sep 2025 20:31:14
Yup……. more lopsided trades. 🤔🙄.

Agree6 Disagree2

05 Sep 2025 20:57:49
Nashan
Tuch is a trade chip and not to get another older player like Tuch as Buffalo is in a rebuild.
NRobertson with another team is probably a 20 to 25 Goal Winger and Danford is a very good prospect.
How you look at this as being lopsided is confusing.

Agree0 Disagree5

05 Sep 2025 22:41:32
Welcome back Pinball. You’re a man of your word.

This is an unbelievably one-sided, homer-trade, but you’re a man of your word, and that’s more important. I hope you enjoy the season ahead🤜

P. S. I think your beloved team will play with more balls and respectability than in past years. They are more of a Treliving team and less of a Dubas team, so while they won’t hoist a Cup, I think they’ll look a lot less petulant and silly with bitchy Mitchy out of the 416. Enjoy🤜.

Chickenfoot
Thanx for acknowledging that I am a man of my word and would to be off until September, and even though we almost always disagree it's nice to be back and have my negative feedback 😂.

Agree1 Disagree0

06 Sep 2025 02:35:07
And yes this will be a different team Chickenfoot, wonder who The Leaf whipping boy will be this season, if I were to guess I would say Rielly.

Agree2 Disagree0

06 Sep 2025 15:40:16
You may be right about that Pinball. Rielly is in decline, and he won’t waive for a trade. With a new family I don’t blame him. Their family is in Toronto and any new parent would want the help and support of nearby family.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Sep 2025 15:11:30
Danford shouldn't be an option for a trade. Our Dcore is old to say the least and he looks to potentially be a more physical version ot Tanev if he develops properly and gets more disciplined. Tuch would be a great add and maybe it's something that we revisit closer to the deadline and get in on the bidding war for him cause he won't be a cheap add unless he tells Buffalo he only wants to come to TO.

Robertson is gonna get some opportunities this year to move up the lineup. We will see if he runs with it. But that 1RW spot is wide open for the taking out of camp. We will see some LWs getting looks, Roy likely gets a look. If Roslovic gets a PTO he could also take that spot out of camp/ preseason. A lot of wait and see, but hopeful for some bounce back years from a few of our guys.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Sep 2025 19:53:40
Well I am out of Pinball Jail and just in time for a training camp trade to post.

Buffalo Trades
Tuch

Toronto Trades
NRobertson
Danford (OHL)

Sabres a rebuilding Team gets 2 young players in this deal with only a year left on Tuch's contract.
Leafs get a solid RWinger to play in the top 6.

too much right now for McTavish.

Agree5 Disagree3

04 Sep 2025 00:37:24
Done deal. McTavish is a stud. Second line would be much stronger.

Agree1 Disagree3

05 Sep 2025 16:50:35
I wouldnt be dealing a 2026 1st rounder until the deadline. Too many top prospects available this year to trade a pick blindly without knowing where you are at in thr standings.

Agree3 Disagree0

09 Sep 2025 01:29:01
Thanks for all the replies!

I would also not trade the 1st of 2026, but if I was Anaheim, that + good prospect would be the minimum!

03 Sep 2025 00:57:18
So MTL gives up a 1st (in 2026 no less) and TWO seconds to dump price, get two 7th rounders, and Poulin?

For reasons already stated Rielly won’t waive.

03 Sep 2025 16:36:06
Karlsson was a very god player. was. not sure he puts you over the hump.

05 Sep 2025 03:56:11
McTavish is a stud, but you don’t overpay to this degree. This is a can’t miss deal for ANA.

- ANA deal is close to fair, but ANA gets another prospect to make it happen. However, I’d be reluctant to trade a ‘26 1st…it is going to be a deep draft.

- the second deal is lopsided for the Rangers. I’d rather have the younger Laine than the bread man any day of the week. Matheson, if traded, will bring in more on a separate deal.

Agree5 Disagree2

31 Aug 2025 13:23:57
No way in the world The Ducks get two firsts plus a prospect plus Dach for McTavish.

Agree0 Disagree2

31 Aug 2025 17:40:52
For the ducks trade habs add engstrom only if ducks adds Tristan luneaux
The panarin deal is because I feel like the chemistry he and demidov would have would be gold, and panarin could resign at reasonable price to win that elusive cup.

Agree0 Disagree2

01 Sep 2025 00:23:21
Adding luneau 6foot1 200 pounds RHD with offence
Actually sets habs dcore for the future
Guhle (2 way d) Dobson (offensive d, 2way)
Hutson ( offensive d) reinbacher (defensive d)
Xhejaj or struble ( defensive d) luneau ( offensive d)
Dobson being the oldest at 25 years old.

Agree0 Disagree1

29 Aug 2025 01:32:36
MTL:

- Price's contract on Sept. 1st
- 2026 6th

CHI:

- 2026 7th (originally FLA)

Believable3 Unbelievable18

30 Aug 2025 18:41:40
So Chicago takes the salary for nothing?

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2025 12:00:15
Nashan, with the floor being higher, and teams needing to reach it, and with Price’s bonus being paid as of Sept. 1st, his contract will be a cheap way of helping a team reach the floor. (10.5M cap hit for only 4M, and insurance pays half of that. )

Agree1 Disagree0

31 Aug 2025 15:46:14
Floor is 70M and they are at 76M so again why take any salary for nothing?

Agree1 Disagree1

31 Aug 2025 17:03:22
The cost to MTL to move Price’s contract is expected to be a late pick, but Nashan you are 100% correct they don’t need it. I was suggesting basically a 7th swapped for a 6th, but you are absolutely correct that CHI is already at the floor👍.

Agree1 Disagree0

02 Sep 2025 03:47:49
I’m thinking if I was the GM to take Price I’d want a second no worse. No favors as it is tough going in the nhl. I hope they don’t add any more teams to make it even more watered down.

Agree0 Disagree1

03 Sep 2025 01:03:15
NASHAN: I totally agree that they shouldn’t expand, for the reason you stated. Unfortunately I fear they will to take the money that’s available.

The Habs have already ruled out a 2nd to the move Price. There are some teams that want to move out contracts that may need the Price cap hit to remain at the floor. The usual suspects seem to be PIT, SJ and CHI. Perhaps the upcoming GM meetings in Detroit will provide some answers👍.

3 way trade between habs , Vegas and Calgary

Very bad for Calgary. If they trade Anderson it will be for youth.

Agree4 Disagree2

23 Aug 2025 16:18:07
That's a big downgrade for Calgary. Montreal is giving up the least and getting the most.

Agree3 Disagree2

21 Aug 2025 07:46:40
Calgary trades - Kadri, 3rd round pick 2027

Carolina trades: kotkaniemi, Nadeau, 1st round pick 2026


Ehlers Aho Jarvis
Svech Kadri Stankoven
Hall Staal Blake

Pretty solid forwards that the canes have needed.

Calgary gets a good prospect and a first while taking on the kotkaniemi contract

Believable4 Unbelievable20

21 Aug 2025 13:47:07
I think this is a good basis of a deal. I think CAR would have to add a 2nd or similarly valued prospect to complete this offer.

I would also agree that KK gets traded before camp opens. He just isn’t a Rod Brind’amour kind of player.
