The Habs doing charity towards the Leafs is very romantic but unfortunately the management team is very busy building a champion team that will perform in the playoffs in the glorious tradition des Canadiens de Montréal
Sign jt after his contract for league minimum jk lol but only way habs get him
Slafkovsky will never win Stanley cup for us.
@@panterafanloco1600 lol teams win cups not players
@@bradleypittman9370 Great answer, not a Habs fan, he's a troll.
@@danielmontreal007 not a troll, I'm telling you the truth.
I think JT should go back to NYI to heal his relationships there. 😀
That’s like getting back together with your ex wife after 6 years
Not even Rejean Houle is crazy enough to make this trade.
Marc Bergevin will
bingo
If this is the trade, Montreal is the team who adds prospect(s) and/or picks. Tavares has one year left and will probably score 60 points. Anderson has 3 years left and some guys on league minimum will have greater output.
@@TheBirdyyeses --- no, you have it all wrong. It's the other way, Toronto need to add a prospect or 1st round to get rid of Tavares contract.
@@bedbath9056 if it’s for a Marleau-type deal where the other team sends their 7th - 100% Toronto is paying this year’s 1st round pick and probably a decent prospect. For the worst contract in the league in Josh Anderson? Hell no. Even with the horrible Tavares contract, you’re paying an arm and a leg to unload those diabolical three years.
Your title is wrong. This is not a rumour.
I don't think Toronto would do this. They are free after 1 year, why take on an additional 2?
Because if you ask any accountant, you better have 1$ today than 2$ tomorrow. So having a cap space of 5.5M next season could be more appealing than freeing 11M in 2 years.
That said, I don't think it will ever happen.
Taveres could have played in Montreal but chose to play In Toronto so he can stay there
I remember Josh Anderson saying himself that he hates the Toronto Maple Leafs
If Montreal isn’t planning to buy out gallagher and Gallagher , than this isn’t a bad idea , regardless of the amount of points either guys get, Montreal gets 11 mils of cap space freed after next season instead of having Anderson for 3 years and the leafs free up 5.5 mil , enough to go get a decent defenseman to help them out.
If Montreal isn’t planning to fight for a playoffs spot, why not? Montreal still have to trade 2 or 3 defensemen maybe they could package a blockbuster deal. The only problem , Toronto has no prospect and no decent draft picks to sweeten any deal. The Leaf are in a very very bad position
Idea sure seems crazy at first, but as explained in the video, it does make a lot of sense for both teams - immediate cap relief for the Leafs and long term cap relief for the Habs. Of course Anderson has had a couple down seasons, but he does have the skills and potential to bounce back, particularly if he plays with Matthews. The main problem (and reason this won’t happen) is that both players have partial or modified NMC’s, and both grew up as fans and proud of their current teams, and the reason they signed the long term deals they did (Anderson’s family is from Burlington, ON, but grew up as Habs fans… there are videos on this). So, the odds of either guy shutting the trade down is very high, especially Tavares. But fun idea to think about. 😉
@@kevinsargent6282 the way Anderson and Tavares are playing , waiving their ntc , would turned the fans against them . They get booed and torn appart in social medias, the fans wants Tavares outta Toronto as he’s hurting them with his cap hit and Montreal would destroyed Anderson if he dares waive his ntc.
The NTC doesn’t mean much in big market , if the fans turns against you , you better accept going anywhere or you career and life would be over pretty fast.
Again if Hugues isn’t planning or doesn’t have other option of moving Gallagher or Anderson than this makes a lot of sense
You could even package a defenseman in the deal to make room in Montreal , but it all depends on what Hugues wants to do, doe he wants to become a contender this year and overpay to get rid of Anderson and Gallagher or does he wants to make that trade and wait to aquire something big when Tavares , dvorak and Armia become UFA in 2025, as they will free up 20 millions in cap space🤷🏼♂
@@stephaneferron5317 I don’t see Hughes “overpaying” to get rid of anyone, as that would be a “waste” of resources, and that is not his style. 😏. If there is an opportunity to unload those guys at even or advantage (think Hoffman last year!), he will do it.
Of course, neither Gallagher nor Anderson look very appealing with their contracts now, but they will gradually look better as the contract burns down and the salary cap goes up. At one point, someone will take a chance once the contract is shorter (or swap for another underperforming or “bad” contract that Kent feels may be a good reclamation project), possibly with some small retention. Just need patience. 🙂
When Tavares was a ufa, habs invited him to make a pitch for him and he refused to even meet.
Wouldn't want to see that Tavares in a habs uniform even if he wanted to play for free 😮
I wouldn’t Trade Knies he will Only get better.
Have any of your suppositions ever come true? Just curious. I think even the TSN panel gets about 10% right
The crazy season has yet to disappoint me lol
Hell no. Maybe if they include knies and Robertson. I’d try to sign Stamkos or trade for Crosby. Or go with what we have.
stamkos does not fit with the montreal young forward group, its better to trade for a ready young top 6 forward in the offseason. Only problem is these type of young top 6 forwards can be a bit pricey but judging on how many prospects we have and the loaded picks we have, im sure Kent Hughes can figure something out.
Stamkos ? Crosby ? Are you out of your FU$&ING MIND 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you are most definitely a leafs fan 😂😂
@@matthew7827we need an elite type veteran centre if we do add a centre. Don’t think we are getting a stud 25 year old centre who can score 35+ goals and 80,90+ points to help this team along and not put too much pressure on our young nucleus. Can’t have all young players either. I’d like Stamkos and find a way to move some expensive wingers and move Dvorak.
I thought it was a Red Wing trade suggestion.
Seeing how good domi got on the leafs, who ever we send would someone become a top line player
No, but Anderson does have a value, and with his pretty good playoff numbers and he had a very bad season, next yr will tell you if he’s done, cause he’s been a 50 point plus guy
I can see a trade similar to the Zack Wilson NFL trade. One thought I threw out there as a gas was Buffalo trades their 2nd rd pick to Toronto for Tavares and a 3rd. Yet, I do not want to see Tavares on the Sabres. I think he is a potential grey cloud. I would rather Buffalo trade for Josh Anderson.
One idea, though, is that perhaps Utah may pull the trigger on a trade for JT. Besides Keller, they do not really have a face of the franchise. Plus...Utah has a boatload of 2nd rd picks.
Cheers,
-a.?/MCD
As a Habs fan no way. Even at 2 millions a year i would not want him. The Habs should trade Anderson with a d man like Harris and a pick for a young proven big winger that can score like Vilardi in Winnipeg
Honestly, Tavares for Anderson, I would do it. Heck if I was Hughes id retain 25-50% of of Anderson's contract as well and take the a Leafs first, flip JT at 50% retained to a team like Washington (who won't stop trying to compete whilst Ovi is there) and move on with all the picks. I would never put it past HuGo to do something like that.. We won't have the opportunity to do these type of cap retention trades much longer so might as well galaxy brain now... al in the name of crazy season of course!
we will only have one open space to retain salary next year, we will still be paying for Allen & Petry (oh and Alzner is finally coming off them as well)
@@savax1551isn’t Allen contract done this upcoming season?
@@komirules at the end of next season both Petry & Allen's contract end. For this year Edmonston is coming off the books for next season
@@savax1551 Gret point! Completely forgot about the Allen retention - I'd still approach as above though, just without trying to get a first from the leafs for the retention haha
Tavares has a no trade claus. Habs will not do this either. Who is gonna help their division rival like that?
Why would they deal tavares in end of his contract to take on 4 yrs of another bad contract when they can just get tavares off at the end of this year
Tavares isn’t waiving. He’ll finish out his contract and walk if the leafs don’t want him but he isn’t giving up his captaincy because Leaf fans are throwing a tantrum about the last series.
Ideally, he plays out the contract and signs a cheaper deal to stick with the club. He still produces great middle 6 numbers. Trading him for the sake of trading him is dumb.
The NYI didn't start winning in the playoff until Tavares left. The Leafs haven't won in the playoff since he got there. Habs don't need a loser to help them rebuild.
Toronto gave up a 1st round pick to get rid of marleaus contract , what will it cost to get rid of 1 year at over 11mil cap hit (yes the actual cash is already paid)
It will cost to take Josh Anderson contract and leafs have to send 2025 1st round pick or a prospect.
It’sso nice to dream awake! This is far from happening, both the Leafs and the Habs don’t exchange players since so many years that I can’t remember the last time, Mabee the Mahovelichs Peterand his brother???
Last trade between Montreal and Toronto was for Plekanec in 2018
We don't need any more ageing castoffs from other teams!
We already have our guy who never smiles. Definitely don't need this guy.
Why would Montreal help Toronto and take on a player that cannot score or skate in the playoffs. At least Anderson can score in the post season.
no no JT were good for at least 1 or 2 years before adding some one as free agent .
What are you smoking? You are just freeing up $5.5m for Leafs, so they can sign another decent defender, which is exactly they need. Leafs has to add sweeter, but they don’t have nothing. Think about what Flames paid to get rid off 1 year Monahan. Anderson is not good, but still has a little value.
I don't see how how either Tavares or Toronto would be in interested in this. How could be wrong, but I see this as a ridiculous pipe dream idea that will never happen. The only non playoff team that I can see him going to is maybe Chicago and even that is a leap. The reason I say that is I can imagine an aging superstar ending his career by feeding pucks to the next Superstar.
help montreal do what?
no thx. cap goes to homegrown talent!
1 year with JT to get rid of Anderson would go so hard
And how does this fit into the Habs timeline for building a contender. Our acquisitions need to be 26 or under. Doesn't fit.
Andersson only had a bad year end of story. Tavares is not fit in Montreal unless you replace Gallagher with him.
You absolutely have to make it soo sweet that no mortal human could take !!!!! Screw toronto !!!!
This one i ld do in a minute just to get rid of Anderson
Are you all sniffing the preverbal rubber? Both teams would never make an asinine trade like this. Toronto is looking to avoid more long term contracts. They need only to wait 1 more win lol.
This doesnt make any sense, Tavares wants to win now because of his age, he wouldnt waive his no trade to go to a rebuilding Montreal.
Putting that aside, this trade still doesnt make sense, no GM in their right mind would make this tradeon the Toronto side, it would make more sense to ride out an over paid Tavares that still produces and that is great at face-offs.
No thanks. I think/hope Montreal's love affair with signing stars past their prime ended when Marc B left.
Tavares looks so angry on the thumbnail
As a habs fan, no.
He could end up in Chi Town as blackhawks can give them picks as the leafs lack them.
Toronto would need to give up picks to shed the Tavares contract.
@@kurrentscom no they wouldn’t, he’d be perfect to mentor that group of guys, and for just one year left on his contract, they’d do it. A prospect mid range and a 2nd I think k they would, and JT can resign at a way lower rate for a couple of yrs and go to a contender if he wants via trade to help them out again.
@@matthewlarose9958 Calgary gave Montreal a first-round pick to take Monahan, and Toronto gave Carolina a first-round pick in 2019 to get rid of Marleau.
@@kurrentscom yes they did, but Tavares was a 65 point guy, and on the Hawks would be probably is a 70-80 point guy.
JT doesn't want to play here... he would turn into a JA displaying a lack luster effort. When the Habs would play the Leafs next season JT would probably score on Monty on purpose. Don't do it!! JA doesn't want to play there either.
Crazy, Crazy, Crazy!!!! Let him stay with Toronto. We don’t want him.
My first comment below before hearing what the return was. And stil no. Anderson season was a write off and didn’t need more production this season. He can rebound this season. Tavares underproduced on a high scoring team and is older. No thanks.
Godin and Basu have no relevance, best to ignore them. Unfortunately they are on the Habs beat and Godin's ultra-intellectualized questions at a press conference are unbearable. Godin in particular should retrain in another field because he doesn't understand anything about hockey
hahaha Good one Lego
nah, no old crap, no dirty contracts!
Franchement 🤦♂️
Why would Montreal do that….
Before I watch this, this is not happening, I haven’t seen what has been said I don’t even know if this is just a fun theory video, this will not happen I don’t care if you heard from Kent Hughes himself I won’t believe it
Basu is clueless
No matter who gets traded, the Leafs will manage to smoke themselves.... once again lol
I threw up in my mouth a bit.
No montreal will not JT,, not for Price
JT will prob be bought out and not play in canada
Why would Toronto buy him out? Just hide him in the minors for one year and then let him walk. Way cheaper, isn't it?
SMFH constant content about trading for old players. Please stop.
I don't think this will happen. I would love to move on from JT but it just won't happen. The Leafs are the kings of running it back the same and expecting a different result, Its insanity.
'godeen'. Yikes bro.
Basu and Gaudinne 😂
NFW
Fak Aff no way for Anderson !
Never gonna happen. JT has a No Move Clause.
That means nothing, all that means is that he has power to choose where he goes. have you not watched other players in the same situation and they still get traded...Happens EVERY year lol
@@Mrvegas6666 do you think he wants to move away from his home town. He will most likely ride out his contract and then extend to a 35+ contract for way less money. Marner on the otherhand would be greedy enough to leave.
@@johndesousa7379if they don’t want to resign him, he will have to. Or they try to move him to the Sens.
@@Mrvegas6666 Plenty of players have refused to waive their NMC. The teams just don't document or discuss this.
@@komirules if they don't re-sign him he will be a free agent and can go where ever he wants. Leafs get nothing in return because they no longer have any rights to him.
nooooooooooooo!
yuck 🤮 no thanks
No thx no Tavares maybe before but now he’s finished and cost too much
No thanks
Is this April fools day😅
Habs don't Trade with Maple Laughs
Tavares for Gallagher and Anderson , close cap hits ,montreal gets 1 year of a highly overpriced player , Toronto gets multiple seasons of overpriced contracts lol
As a Habs fan, of course I would do this, even 1-for-1... but Leafs are not that dumb... right ?
this would be a horrible trade unless TOR got some of MTL's draft picks (they have TWELVE this year)
You wouldn’t be getting any picks, especially if you aren’t throwing in Robertson on knies.
The Leafs had to give up a 1st round pick to get rid of Marleau. This is an unlikely scenario that Basu dreamt up.
I like John Tavares....at a around a $3-5 Million AAV for 1-2 years.
Very big mistake to get rid of Anderson he is what you need come playoff team hockey put him with Kirby dach and slav and you will have one of the most dominant all-around lines in hockey
