Confirmed Trade: [MTL/VAN] Tanner Pearson and 2025 3rd round pick for Casey DeSmith

[Canucks LB]

Maybe it’s a player for player swap, Canucks get a cheaper cost player? And the Montréal Canadiens get a third round draft pick maybe

I demand all rewards
Nailed it!

 

[HabsQC]

This is fine

 

[FloJack]

If I had to guess, DeSmith is going to VAN and the Habs will LTIR Pearson.

I like this guess.

 

[Canucks LB]

Casey desmith is decent no?

 

[FlameChampion]

Hughes continues to pick up picks

 

[thefutures]

I thought myers was gunna be the one and it was gunna be a 1st to dump him??

[Captain Mountain]

Casey desmith is decent no?

Maybe? Montreal acquired him as a cap dump.

 

[uncleben]

A third to clear less than just over $1.4M?

 

[Treb]

Casey desmith is decent no?

Yes, but no space in Montreal and not much of a goalie market right now.

 

[Muffin]

A third round pick just to save 1.45M? Really?

 

[MMC]

 

[Canucks LB]

A third to clear less than $1.4M?

1.8 no?

Nm you guys are right! Tyty

 

[Hodge]

It's crazy how much draft capital the Canucks have lit on fire these past 10 years considering they were not even close to a contender at any point during that time period.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I've read that 2025 is a good draft, so at least the 3rd is in that year.

 

[Muffin]

1.8 no?

1.45M. 3.25-1.8

 

[CapSpace]

All the picks belong to us. And all the bottom 6 wingers too.

 

[Captain Mountain]

1.8 no?

$3,250,000 - $1,800,000 = $1,450,000

 

[uncleben]

1.8 no?

Looks like we may both be wrong
$3,250,000 vs $1,800,000

 

[Canucks LB]

$3,250,000 - $1,800,000 = $1.450.000

Tyty

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I wonder if the Habs retain 50% and flip him

Nothing released by the Habs yet, but they might be slow.

Is Pearson a former client of Hughes ?

 

[Mrfenn92]

Fair deal

 

[FlameChampion]

It's crazy how much draft capital the Canucks have lit on fire these past 10 years considering they were not even close to a contender at any point during that time period.

Its bizarre how such a uncompetitive team has had such massive cap problems.

Benning completely f*cked them on the Garland/OEL deal.

But Rutherford/Allvin doubling down on Boeser was also dumb.

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

Spencer Martin's numbers were Not Good last season... is there a battle looming there, or is DeSmith most likely to be the backup?

 

[PajamaBoy]

30 point winger? Check.
