Zhukini Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I would do that first trade, but even at 20% retained that Price contract is too much. He’s been a god lately but struggled most of this year, and has had a few injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dats hockey Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Interesting idea with the price trade, not sure it would happen but let’s go out on a limb here and say it did, what are your new plans with Demko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuktravella Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 in what world would edler get a return of best goalie on the planet are you drunk and high? and why would we wanna trade mark and baertchi maybe you should think your proposals through a bit more no offense but trades have to some what fit teams needs we need a offensive right dman and a nother sniper winger we are fine at goaltending demko depietro are coming up from minors eventually so marky nillson are fine at moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Even if it's for Carey Price, I don't want to give up our 1st rounders. You are suggesting this trade assuming that we will make the playoffs in 2018 and 2019 so hat 2019, 2020 1st rounders would be late 1st rounders. But I think we are still far away from becoming a for sure playoff team for 2018 and 2019. It requires Pettersson to come in and perform as well if not better than what Boeser is doing as well as at least one top notch defence prospect to emerge (i.e., Juolevi). In my opinion EP and OJ will both be high caliber NHL players one day, but not sure if it will be starting 2018. And in the current NHL, taking a gamble on an undetermined first round pick is not a smart thing to do. Look at what Toronto gave up for Kessel: Seguin and Hamilton. Also, we have Demko in line to become a #1 so I don't see a need for Carey Price and his cap right now. And honestly, I don't think Markstrom is going to solve Philly's net problem. I'm not even sure if Markstrom is much of an upgrade over what they have now. Maybe a bit but not by much. Oh and Baertschi doesn't feel like a type of 3LW that the Phillies are looking for, but that's just my impression without knowing exactly what they want in 3LW (if indeed, they want to acquire a 3LW). I don't think Philly does that trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberz21 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 If MTL trades Price for a rebuild...they want the rebuild to start right now...not in 2022, when those 2019 and 2020 1st rounder reach the NHL.. and they would ask a lot more, start with Boeser. As for Philly...you don't trade your 1st rounder for "a decent chance of making the playoff". You trade your 1st rounder for a decent chance at reaching the Conference Final/Stanley Cup. If Philly are outside looking in, Baertschi/Markstrom aren't necessarily going to put them in. They get better but not worth a 1st and 2nd for an ailing team.

The_Rocket Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I feel like a carry price trade will probably involve the following Demko Gaudette/Joulevi (depending on if they want a defensemen or forward) 2019 1st 2019 2nd no salary retention mtl sends a 5th round back as well MAYBE that gets it done. For that reason, there’s no way I’d pursue Carey price. Just too much to give up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't need to pile on another bad goalie contract on top of the that, for a few season of Carey Price in his prime (if he's not past his prime already).

NUCKER67 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Edler and two 1sts for Price? No thanks, his best days are behind him IMO. I wouldn't mind Trade #1 though. An extra 1st in 2018 sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Carey Price a decade ago would be worth Edler and 2 firsts, but today that Price is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvis15 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Yeah, no. I understand the premise that we're neither a contender or a bottom feeder currently, but trading away 1sts for Price is not the solution. I'd consider the Philly deal almost - almost - but I don't know if they would. For the price of Neuvirth, I don't know that they'd need to retain salary to help us as he's not a pure cap dump and we'd have the room (Marky's cap hit is more going the other way). Besides, asking them to retain salary lowers our return as they'd be doing us a favour. Still don't think they'd do it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have to agree on the Price deal, it is pretty off the wall (as Coastal puts it!) .........On Coastal.......I think he likes me, always talks trash to me, kind of like a young guy does when he likes someone.........He knows I am married to Jan, right? ....... I hope! Not really into guys! But on a serious note................I like the Phili trade and they need the help and have the extra 1st this year.........maybe your right about the retention, though as I would really like to pick their pockets..........I think Markstrom and Baertschi has good value but are replaceable...Phili needs them, so maybe we retain 20%..........it is a very tight race, and our vets are playing well....which is a time to move them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
