It's actually conditional 2nd. If segerchev plays 40 games, picks are exchanged. If not its a straight up 1 for 1

they're actively shopping Galchenyuk according to The Hockey News

thank the hockey gods they didn't sign him to a stupid long contract

looks like he'll be a UFA in 2018 as well
so if he shits the bed this season we could trade him at the deadline for something

Hmm galchenyuk + picks for tanev??

Solid trade for the Habs, they're window is slowly closing with price, who I think is 30 or 31. Good trade for Tampa as it opens cap signing room and if sergachev can crack their top 4 he will be an affordable good defencemen for another 2 years.

in that case, id expect to see 4.5M-5M for Bo

no way he's getting more than JDro

pretty good deal for the Habs esp if he can push 70+ pts next season

Drouin made everyone around him so much better in TB and played mostly with plugs... he was playing with Boyle as his centre most of the time and Boyle got 13 goals in 54 games last year... when Boyle went to the Leafs and didn't have Drouin anymore? No goals in 13 games...

He was also the only guy that Kucherov didn't throw under the bus as worthy of playing with from a skill perspective. As much as that whole saga said a lot about Kucherov as a teammate, it also says a lot about Drouin's skill level.

As much as everyone wants the Canucks to make the same deal for Druin. I think the whole league knew Druin only wanted to go to one place and that's MTL. So why give something up for a player who might pull another "I want a trade".

Habs have to keep wheeling and dealing they have no centres capable of utilizing the talented wingers they have. Forcing Galchenyuk or Drouin to play 1C won't work they are undersized and not a 2-way force.

The galchenyuk thing puzzles me. I always thought he played better as a centre. I don't know why he was always slotted in as s winger.

Tampa was in a pinch with the salary cap and the expansion draft.

We dont have enough good young players to have to worry about either lol

Biggest reason it's a win for Tampa is because they have too many talented forwards. They would have been forced to open up 1 of them to be plucked by Vegas for free. Getting back a blue chip defenseman prospect that is not expansion eligible gives Tampa another slot to hold their core together.

Vancouver doesn't have that problem because we don't have enough talent to protect haha.
In Canucks case...

Heard on 1040 some time ago someone suggested 5.3 x 6 as a play on his jersey # a la Crosby. I'd be ok with that.

For those who might not know why he wear 53: Canuck Bo Horvat has a purpose wearing 53

Anything below $6 for Bo would be a good deal now and in a few years.

Damn, Nathan beaulieu to the Buffalo Sabres for their 2017 3rd pick.

And Mike smith to Calgary with I think 25% salary retained for Brandon hickey, chad Johnson and a conditional 3rd round pick
