TLDR: Marco suggests trading for Adam Boqvist. Thoughts

I know CBJ fanbase wants to part ways with Boqvist at some point to bring Jiricek in the line up eventually.
Is it too soon tho for that ? I reccon Jiricek could use another year before the big jump.. i’d see more Boqvist be a TDL trade if they see at that time they are near a playoff spot and wanna push for a run. I don’t see them make a rush move quite yet.
That said Boqvist would be a great addition to the core, and it might deter Kent from using our 5OA on a RD ?

Would love Boqvist as long as it’s not expensive.
Idk what Columbus is doing tbh.
They have one of the best prospect pool in the league with plenty of young exciting players like Johnson and Marchenko but suddenly they want to make the playoffs NOW. Ownership probably has something to do with it but signing Gudbranson 4×4, Severson 8×6.25 and paying a first++ for Provorov is ludicrous. And bringing a coach in Babcock who’s gonna be hard on the rookies.

Can’t see Habs using a 1st to get Boqvist, but if they feel like there is some untapped potential, I wouldn’t be upset with a 3rd round pick (maybe a late 2nd) being used to get him

We have too many dmen as it is. Even if we trade edmundson and banish wideman to laval, we have

Matheson-Barron
Guhle-Savard
Harris-Kovacevic
Xhekaj
I dont see how from an asset standpoint it makes sense to trade for boqvist when it means probably losing kovacevic on waivers
The only target right now is Dubae
Hear me out: acquire PLD, trade him immediately to CBJ for Boqvist.
I’m refreshed, boss
Kaapo Kakko is my vote, left shot RW to complement Caufield right shot LW
Keller, Laffy or more off the radar grab of Vilardi would be nice
I’d take Lafrenière if he isn’t too expensive.
The Panthers run hurt the Habs so badly. Having the 17th would be so much better than the 31st/32nd pick. So much more possibilities.
