Multiple NHL teams are circling the St. Louis Blues star centre, and while Montreal isn’t at the front of the line, they’re very much in the conversation. The Blues are believed to have interest in young Habs defencemen, including Kaiden Guhle, and prospect Michael Hage is a name that continues to surface in trade discussions.
So what would it actually cost Kent Hughes to land a true No. 1 centre?
Would Montreal move Guhle? Is Hage untouchable?
And are the Canadiens willing to outbid other NHL contenders?
Shaun Starr and Marco D’Amico break down the latest trade buzz, realistic packages, cap implications, and whether the Habs should push their chips in for Thomas.
Is this the move that accelerates the rebuild — or a price too steep to pay?

The bidding war for Thomas will make the price tag go up a lot, whatever package you have in mind, you probably need to add to it.
There are probably 10 teams that could be interested and coming up with a a valid trade package (Bos, Det, Utah, Buf, Sea, Car, Colombus, Min, Mtl, etc)…
The only thing that might reduce the cost is if Thomas doesn't want to play for most of them and use his 'no trade' clause or if the Blues don't want to trade him within the division/conference…
Won’t take as much as Marco is saying to get Robert Thomas.
Here's what I'm going for Monaghan; O'Reilly, kadri, there's no way I'm over paying for Thomas!!!!! Kapanen , struble , engstrom or a first that's it ! Didn't wait all this time for breaking up my team now !!!
Caleb Desnoyers is not better than Hage.
Hage, Guhle & a 1st rounder ? Never!!! that is an insane price tag.
The price is much too high to acquire Robert Thomas. Yes, he is a good player but not at an elite level. 80 points per season is his plateau, playing on the first line and being on the first power play; two conditions that will not happen with the Canadians. Michael Hage is an untouchable at the moment
Why is nobody talking about RT having a full no move?
Sometimes the best trades are the ones that don’t happen, just saying.
Trading Hage this early. Nah. This team still needs to figure out the goalie situation is, and giving another 1st rounder away is not worth it.
A Suzuki/Hage 1-2 punch would be way better for longer.
Suzuki and Thomas in the 1/2 would make the Habs an instant contender. This is a bag of mixed emotions but at 26, Thomas would put Habs in a 5 year window
More time without trading = more time to evaluate what we have now and how what we have now is able to perform in playoffs. Wait until summer after evaluation and before making a major move. Worked out well with Dobson last year.
Honestly sounds like the reason MTL is inquiring about him is because DET is also doing the same. Arms race.
Danielson and Kasper cannot be considered in the same ballpark as Desnoyers, Iginla and Hage. Carter Bear maybe and he's still borderline. Unless they trade ASP and/or Bear, I don't see how Detroit makes it.
If St Louis is rebuilding why get rid of Thomas who’s only 26 ??? They want way too much for him. Habs should pass
No way Habs give up Hage and Kapanen …
I don't mind giving up Rino and Monty 😂
Montreal NEEDS no trades ..
already a play offs team, ton of talents in the pipe line . Cup Contender in less than 3 years
Don’t see a big deal happening. A rental to bridge the gap to the young guys. Could be a RHD or a goalie and some young players like Struble, Beck, Engstrom, Roy, Mesar, Farrell, etc with picks going out.
I’ve seen some people suggest Boston for Thomas but my response is what assets would Boston have there’s no centerpiece for them to offer
My full trade proposal was Ghule, Hage, Evans, a 1st and 2nd. I would play it gladly
Stop the twaddle talk.
They need size on D not another small forward.
