Moved like this would just prove Montreal doesn’t want to make the playoffs again.
No thanks. Price and Dach for Matthews. Now leafs can rebuild.
Waste of time rumour.
Maybe if we had not traded for bolduc this trade makes more sense? Even still the thought of giving Toronto a missing piece for a cup run gives me Keep away vibes
I highly doubt Canadiens would take this trade, it doesn't work at all for them. They need a Kadri, not a robertson
You can package Matheson and get more than that somewhere else!
If you package Matheson it’s got to be for a 2C …. Nothing less !
Hard pass for that bum, we have to many small players
Are we gonna comments on every trade ideas over the internet because if we start to do that, we don't have the time in all year to talk about pure speculation and when finally a trade occurs most on the time the so called expert analyst did not see that peculiar trade happening.
You can tell its a leafs writer “ already stacked defence “ lol nobody outside of toronto has ever said that
Nonsense.
Nope don t want any losers from toronto
Why not the Montréal get #91 John Tavares for #8 Mike Matheson 1 for 1 therefore we could call it the betrayal trade since this is two guy who played for they home team that get traded ? Did you know that Montreal have put a clause in Kent Hughes GM contract that Montréal can only do trades that outrageously advantage the Montreal Canadian, therefore the first trade for a botton 8 D-Man and 4 th lIne and 3rd round pick i is simply refused !
Mike Matheson got 61 pts 2 yrs ago Top 10 D at the Offense in NHL in 2023-2024 at 4,875 M$/yr he is a freaking bargain. but the eclosion of hutson last year as put a dent on Mike Matheson future with the habs.
Hockey needs to start soon. This is getting ridiculous, Matheson, to leafs. P-lease.
Only thing that may make sense is Montreal tries to get 2 Robertson to the same team. Just saying
Kk
Take a 2 Month Break my dude July and August it's time to stop making videos. You will be ok for September my dude.
This trade Never gonna happen.
No thanks we don't need the leafs garbage!
Matheson will be traded only if a usable player comes back .
Nope,Robinson to small, if it happens habs will package him to another team maybe.
Fiddimnimeshnarschoalesovrokwfj99andbye.
Just write down your name somewhere and i stop this nonsense.
Benoit doesn't even make the Habs 3rd pair and we don't need another bottom 6.winger. the Leafs have nothing of value that the Habs would need
No thanks
Montreal dont want Robertson,, to small,, team need to be biggar,,its a bad deal for Montreal
