Calvin's Dog Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Maybe they acquired Newhook to include in a PLD trade? I think Jets want Nhl players back not picks. So they used the picks they would have used for PLD to get an asset Jests want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckwings Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Just now, Pears said: He’s been a good player his entire career. I wouldn’t give him 7 years or anything like that but he’d be a welcome addition regardless where he plays. Yep agreed he's a good player. I just don't think we should overbid. I feel some teams would be willing to give him that big contract based on his performance with Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJC Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) Anybody willing to do this? Not sure MTL does though. MTL trades: 5th overall Radek Dvorak Arber Xhekaj VAN trades: 11th overall 2024 1st round pick 2025 2nd round pick Connor Garland Jack Rathbone On our end is it overpayment to move up 6 spots? MTL ditches Dvorak’s contract now that he’s a 4th line C. We get an ideal RD in Wifi whom MTL would obviously be reluctant to give up. But, It addresses need and gets us into another potential franchise C drafting territory. Or, we turn around and trade that #5 tomorrow.

Newhook is young, only 22 and really only just coming into his own. Lets see what else they do. Is it possible that they needed another center as part of a trade for Dubois or to replace someone they are likely to lose as part of a trade?

Taking a chdnce on a young pjs yet who hasn’t met expectations yet. They have a lot of prospects and draft capital and are utilizing it to get guys who fit with their core.

rekker Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Not sure if it was an option but the Habs are a small bunch. I would of offered Suzuki for an extended Dubois 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving up picks in this draft you better be sure and to me in 5 years the picks should be better then what they got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekker Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 It is the Habs 31st pick, so almost like two seconds. Meh, still seems overpayment, but this is the center market at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a few small guys but the size thing is overblown. I’ll take a smaller heart and soul 200 ft captain like Suzuki over a floater like Dubois every day of the week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
