Great move from JT but don’t expect the same from Knies. Tavares has earned over $111M n his career and this is his last contract. Knies has earned less than $2M and this contract will set the basis for future deals.

Knies isnt worth more than $7m per over 5 years.

JT has $2m in deferred compensation
full no move clause the first 2 years
5 team trade list the last 2 years.

Worth it IMO

1st off FYI everyone if you click “quote” on the person you are replying to it seems to now quote them and open up a reply which is awesome!

2. Not sure if it’s worth it (yet). The 2 x 1st round picks + a player that people are perhaps underestimating is a big price for an RFA IMO.

The player the Habs traded was Emil Heineman – 23 year old Sweedish winger who is 6’2 and 200 lbs and scored 10 goals last year. He could grow into a nice player for the Islanders.

Like I said this will an interesting one to see how each team faired in this trade over the years.

If the Leafs had traded 2 x top 20 1st round pics & that player for Dobson with the extension you just know many Leaf fans and for sure non-leaf fans would be screaming it was an overpayment! I actually think this one is a bit of a wash right now and both teams feel like they won.

WELL HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO QUOTE button!!!
The habs cupboards are pretty darn full, they are now entering win now mode.
Their top 4 d are now Guhle/Dobson and MAtheson/Hutson….thats pretty darn good…..three of which are really young.
Sure the swedish winger could turn into something more than a 10 goal scorer and who knows what happens to those mid first rounders in a draft that apparently after the 8th pick is pretty meh (so Ive read).
But for now, huge win for the habs.
I hate it.
I hate that I have to type something positive about those sacks of poop.

🙁

Leafs getting Marchand?!?!?!? Seems like an overpay, but…

I heard 4 x $9m….absolutely horrible imo. Marchand played great in Florida because he was on the 3rd line with other good players, facing lesser comp. Here he will be 2nd or top line facing stiffer comp.
Also, they moved away from marner’s 10.9 or soon to be 13 to spend 9m of it on a 36 year old? WTF.

Horrible if true.
Hope its not.

[Fakepartofme]

Rumour was Dobson was asking for $10-11m per from NYI.

So 9.5 is decent.

Going back to NYI are this years 16th and 17th overall picks and Emil Heineman.

Great deal.

You really think this signing puts the Habs in a better place than the Leafs? I don’t, not right now anyway.

As always time will tell.

I dont yet know whats going the other way to the Islanders…but ya…this is a great add.
Still so early (not even July 1st)…but Im Shania’ing……the leafs dont impress me much.
Cant wait to listen to the media splurge all over Montreal all season…..and stupid florida.
Gross.

(Im being dramatic with the “catapult” thing….but I do think this drastically improves the habs)

[Fakepartofme]

Oh look….another sign and trade

RFA…but still

Wow

FACK OFF!!! NOOOOOO

Habs catapult past the leafs.
Ugh.

[Fakepartofme]

Only a fool would be angry with the JT deal.

Geez Keith Pelley…..you dont seem to have too many answer here.
You liked how everything was going…but masai still had to go.
OK.

Masai costing too much?

Screw marner and matthews….JT with the win.

oh I know that, but another reason for me to question Tre moves.

Yup his and Dubas’ moves. Dubas kinda screwed Tre with not much in the cupboard and Tre moved out what little we had for depth players.
I really dont know if Tre can properly “change” the DNA of the leafs. Overpaying for Marchand or Bennett is simply not the answer….specially Marchand. I dont want to see him on the leafs, as he wont be utilized as successfully as he was in Florida. In florida he was a 3rd liner playing with other really good 3rd liners against weaker lines. In Toronto, they’ll have him on the 2nd or top line….rendering him much less effective.

Dobson on the move to Montreal or Columbus?

Please gawd, not Montreal.

really wish the Leafs were able to get Dobson
25yo top pair rhd ..good defense.

The leafs have no trade stock, anything they had was moved for a 4th dman and 4th line center.
Besides, I cant see Islanders moving their top Dman to Toronto even if TO had the assets.

Nurse could be on the move as well.

8 years for Frederic?
