Warhippy Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Just a super quick discussion. Galchenyuk is 0 for. Zero. Nadda. Zilch. Nothing. He's currently the whipping boy of les Toilet Seats and their fans. Bobby Macsays straight and true "now's not the time to trade him" But his value is as low as it's ever been. The lack of responsible 2 way forwards and scoring is killing the Habs. Do we FINALLY have enough depth to get that trade done? My thoughts are a good prospect and high pick. Possibly a young roster player and pick/prospect. I'm still thinking we're one solid drafts worth of depth before we can make this trade. But I don't think we lose out much if we can obtain him while his value is so low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 He'll be in a bigger deal for scoring help now. A pick and a prospect likely isn't overly attractive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I really like Chucky, and would love him on our team. I think the GM in Hab land needs to win now, so he might prefer a more developed play. I'm thinking Sutter and a prospect and a pick might look good. Maybe, Sutter + Goldobin + our coming second? We might have to take another contract along with Chucky to balance out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripplereh Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 not at this point should we go for a trade like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtieCanuck Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I like the proposal The Hockey Guy on YouTube made regarding him. They should do a true hockey trade with the Avalanche for Duchene. We're overloaded on the front end, I'd rather add depth on the blue line personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pick and a prospect likely isn't overly attractive As usual with Habs-related posts, @qwijibo has it right. We have assets, but they are sadly the WRONG assets. Habs are in full win now mode, with a ticking clock on Weber. If Bergevin doesn't show enough success to justify his huge moves lately, then he is gone this year or the next and he knows it. Sadly that likely rules out picks and prospects as trade bait. Their perceived problems at the moment are scoring related (despite having the highest shot rate and lowest shooting percentage in the league currently). They are more than enough middle six defensive guys and stay at home defenders. Can you really think of a high end offensive piece on our roster that we want to give up for Chucky? I don't think that I can really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanuck Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Mtl can't score - I don't see a single guy on AG's level of worth we'd be willing to part with that'll solve that problem for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutter stabilizes their 2-way play and adds some scoring, Goldy is someone I think we need to hang on to, it sounds like he's really getting the message in Utica.

Raymond Luxury Yacht Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I don't see MTL trading Galchenyuk for anyone who isn't guaranteed to score. If they would take Eriksson, I would include something tasty with him. Nothing against Eriksson, it's his contract that sucks....must be a Lou thing.
