HUGE SIMON NEMEC TRADE TO THE MONTREAL CANADIENS? HABS & NEW JERSEY DEVILS RUMOURS

[@michaelb1621]

Don't think i'd trade Mailloux , he looks good

[@Tremblantbroker8222]

Sorry dude but you’re really stretching the limits of our incredulity. Nemec is never getting traded. Any mention of this is ridiculous.

[@thomasdidymus1393]

You never know...i could see the Devils dealing this kid.

[@qelip]

He said he wanted to

[@SusanRogerPoirier]

Mike Matheson would be good bait to start discussions

[@matuscarsky7857]

I wish MTL would buy him

[@SmokeTubeBBQ]

devs can bury nemec in the A until dougs contract is done and theres nothing he can do about it. RFA for quite awhile more

[@SK-WPG]

NJ says... NO BLEEPING WAY! Not giving a future Top Pairing D (which is invaluable) for a bottom 6 forward, a potential problem / 3rd pairing D at best, a who knows if he will ever make the NHL D and a pick. No... just no.

[@mikeking-t2u]

And where is Nemec again lol? Is he tearing up the AHL?? Mailloux is lol! Enough said

[@copiumw2596]

what about reinbacher?

[@stephaneferron5317]

With Dvorak leaving , Evans and Armia need to stay or the habs will fall right back at the bottom of the league , all that progress will be for nothing , take Evans and dvorak out and then you’re forced to put Suzuki on the pk , which affects caufield , Slafkovsky and everyone on Suzukis line at 5vs5 You already have newhook and Dach playing center when they shouldn’t be

[@Paul-fg6mk]

Click bait. There will be no trade by the Canadiens. End of the discussion.

[@sharangoalvich]

Fitzgerald laughs at that deal and hangs up

[@darrenmarchand647]

Good cuz I wouldn't give them that much for Nemec.

[@stephenpaquin1735]

That would be a move if the habs doesn't aim for the playoff but, with their recent wins, I don't think they resigned so that would not be a great move. However, if they are seller and count on Beck to take Evan's place on the 3rd line, then yes, he will take some experience for next season. I'm just curious how far NJD GM is ready to go to get Evans. Being KH, I ask it and evaluate what is my floor acceptable trade to not being in the payoffs.

[@michaelstenback1598]

devils should try to get kadri from flames as a middle 6 center

[@stephanegendroncartier5973]

Right now, Pascal Vncent ( head coach, Rocket de Laval\ AHL) has the mandate to improve the defensive game of Mailloux, so i'll be ready next year to play with the big team... Nemec vs Mailloux, forget abouti it, won't happen!

[@copiumw2596]

yes trade him he will show his potencial with canadiens

[@darrenmarchand647]

Plus the Flames first? as a starting point? Um no. Nemec ain't no Bobby Orr. I think the Devils would do damn well with Evans on their 4th plus Mailloux.

[@shuvmesumknowlegde]

Sell out the whole store. why not? That is one of the dumbest trade rumor trades I have seen in a long while.

[@dden7670]

Apparently, they are not looking for futures and Montreal can't offer what they want, which is a top 6 forward.

[@mikeking-t2u]

lol they are looking for a 3rd line centre lol! How is this a top 6 forward? It’s no secret they’ve been asking about Evans a bottom 6 guy! Hello!

[@dden7670]

@@mikeking-t2u This is not about Evans this is about what they expect in return for Nemec. It was reported by a journalist that talked to a member of the NJ organization.

[@NhlCoDGaming55]

POSSIBLE & I WOULD DO EVANS + 1ST RND

[@Hockeydad27]

Kent would probably send a 2nd rounder at most

[@leezwatz3339]

Not a 1st rounder. Nemec's problem is that he is not developing and he was drafted in 2022. I don't care if he was 2nd overall. Would you trade Lane Hutson (62nd overall in 2022) for Nemec? I rest my case.

[@prodICYN]

@@leezwatz3339 He seems to be playing well in the AHL right now, it's just, the devils have no roster spot for him because of kovy

[@komirules]

The lower of the habs and flames 1st rounder.

[@JeanMauriceB1C4RD]

It could be Evans and a draft choice (2nd or 3rd) for Nemec. NJ have plenty of Ds and better than Nemec. They need a good defensive center.

[@MrSoloDev]

1) Our pipeline is full of defensive prospects. We need room for them. 2) Evans is more valuable to the Habs than Nemec.

[@lucasc9688]

This is just wrong

[@BEYONDYOURIQ]

Montreal should not do this. Keep Evans. He is too good to trade.

[@GordonEngels]

No please, Nemec overrated

[@adamparn6309]

You realize he's just had a 5 point night yesterday with 2+3, right? He sure needs to work on a lot of things, especially defensively. But his ceiling is sky high. Unfortunately Devils are well aware of that

[@ST-TV]

@@adamparn6309 That's AHL, not NHL. There are plenty of players who are point per game players down there, but don't even make the lineupp on NHL level. If he was clearly NHL level D he would be playing for the Devils.

[@stevestreet4402]

Would rather get Kovacevic back instead. He was great as a bottom pairing with WIFI.

[@stockey]

@@adamparn6309 One game doesn't do a career,' Florain Xhekaj had a 6 points game.

[@adamparn6309]

@@stockey obviously a single game doesn't, though Florian is an LW/C and also playing in a stronger team, but that doesnt matter. I guess time will tell in terms of his development, but if I remember right, Nemec had 2 points in his first 10 in Utica since leaving Devils and is pretty much a PPG D man since. If Habs want him, they better make a move quick imo :)

[@zStonedPenguin]

JT, EP an hronek and 2 1st for the for the Hughes bro from NJ

[@Hockeydad27]

Slaf nemec mesar connection would be pretty sick 😅

[@SusanRogerPoirier]

Mesar's never cracking Montreal's top 6.

[@oSWookie]

I think it could work its helps both teams, I think people on New Jerseys side who would be saying "No" just dont understand the player they would be getting in Evans, He would instantly impact there defensive game, PK, faceoff, ect hes probably one of the best utility players in the NHL and now that the production is there. Its benefits us by having a extra RD man as were gonna be losing some soon and it also helps it would bring extra comfort to slaf having a childhood friend around, Instant boost to his confidence. I dont know if Maybe Evans and our Late 1st gets its done.

[@AlbertoRoa38]

We'd take Evans. Just not for Nemec. Not happening

[@oSWookie]

@@AlbertoRoa38 Yea but you already got what you need which is probs why he sitting down in the AHL, Evans + Late 1st would give the devils abilty to draft a respectable RD such as Fiddler, Or Radim is he slips bit. Like Pierre lebron said if both teams make a trade both are probs gonna be uncomfordable but i think this trade goes well for both sides.

[@seanwolfen8461]

lol if that happen its gonna be another shitty trade like newhook, barron and Dach... Habs core is reimbacher, Mailloux and carrier. IF MERCER IS NOT IN THE DEAL, you end the call..

[@stevestreet4402]

That being said I agree with you that we don't need a Nemec so yeah if there is no top 9 forward (a winger preferably) involved than why make a trade.

[@komirules]

We used the 2nd round pick we got with Barron to move up and select Hage.

[@seanwolfen8461]

@ Barron, newhook and dach are just gambles. New and dack will be gone in 2 years. they suck
