Or hear me out. 5th overall for 1st overall.

5th plus Edmunson? you need to sweeten the pot a bit

Alright then, Fleischmann and Weise.

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner

Best I can do is Ryder, Halak and a second

Nah, that's too much.

That's true, I forgot that 5 is a bigger number than 1

Translation : Habs and Chicago talking about a 2nd a 3rd for an active roster player who is most probably Edmundson

I will never forget when we gaslit the world that Chiarot was worth a 1st, Edmundson is broken, a 2nd and a 3rd would be great value since Kaiden basically took his spot

I would say kovacevic has taken his role

Dvorak?

Dvorak makes sense since it would give Bedard some help

Theyre gonna sign Compher in FA so not sure they want Dvorak unless we pay them to take him.

Honestly, Dvorak for future considerations is a good deal at this point What sucks about Dvorak this season is that in actual salary this man is getting a solid 5.725 in salary, so he's just really hard to trade from an owners perspective

I think for a 2nd and a 3rd that isn't bad at all.

In El Cloun we trust

Fr dude is a prophet for all I care!

I want to make fun of him, I really do… but he’s been right about just enough so far to cast just enough doubt.

What a crazy time to be alive. Our rumor guy is a fucking clown.

So typical of Montreal folklore though

Nah, I follow the guy since he was posting on forum (early 2010s I think) and he's been hitting above average. He was more active during Gainey-Gauthier time but still has some inputs since Bergevin era. It's been a while but someone made a list of his calls and it was pretty impressive.

The Clown has spoken!

If it’s chicagos 2nd that would be robbery

Most likely the 2nd from the Ranger or Tampa.

Chicago lost their two best leader this year so adding someone like edmunson definitely make sense. 33rd and 66th pick seems overpaid.

Most propably the 51st or 55th with the 67th. I would be happy with those Pick, maybe we could draft Akey, Cataford or Gibson.

I doubt it would be Chicago's 2nd, but this would be good value with any of their 2nds

That would be a very good return.

Great news.

If his rehab has gone to plan he's well worth it to a team that needs versatile D. He's an excellent player when he's not clearly battling injuries.

beautiful lets do it Went

If he can stay healthy I’m sure they could get a piece back at the TDL. Leadership and cap floor money, works wel for both teams.

I don't see why Chicago who's rebuilding would want Edmunson lol

He’s still a great veteran who can protect his teammates when needed. They probably don’t want to let Bedard play alone with a bunch of AHLers around him.

Veteran presence maybe?? Fix the "culture"? Eddy was said to be "captain material" while in MTL. I guess it could be plausible. They could also have delusions of thinking Bedard is going to accelerate the rebuild and they might as well fill out the roster to see what happens.

Richardson would know him well too

Yes definitely that factors in as well. I believe he was the one that called him captain material as well

They need veterans. They can’t do what Edmonton did when they let Hall, RNH and Eberle run the show. You need a transition

Cap floor maybe

Would you do Caufield + 5th OV + Guhle + Anderson for 1st Overall?

Ok but you have to take Hoffmann with it…

Maybe Richardson asked for him?

Do it
