Lol
I would kick and scream. Don’t trade for a bust like Lafreniere when Slafkovsky could become a wrecking ball.
I’ve seen three Youtubers that I really like all go down this path about hockey where they just turn into click bait guys, and do you wanna know what happened to them? At some point people stopped taking it and unsubscribed in the thousands so unless you want that to happen, stop it.
Not gonna happen. Stop with the clickbait stuff
Cmon Lego, you're better than this
It's not clickbait ! Lego is talking about a bonehead idea of Norman Flynn.
If I was the NYR, It's not a Bad trade just because Slaf is 18 and can improve
If I was MTL, I wouldn't do cause Laf is older and might not be able to deal with the pressure of the MTL market.
Deal wouldn't be done.
Must be a slow sunday
Tf? No? Lol Montreal would hang up
this channel stinks now
well any moron that wanted Drioun would probably be happy to ruin the team making another trade for a French guy.
Lol why would the habs ever make that trade?! Lafreniere sucks.
[NO, NO, NO] is what I say to this. Montreal just need to [LOOK BACK] at the last trade for a [FRENCH LANGUAGE] in the Drouin trade & ask themselves this question, "DO YOU JUST WANT {FRENCH PLAYERS} OR GOOD PLAYERS"? We see back at the Dennis Savard for Chris as well & we [KNOW THIS HISTORY] of being so [BIAS] that you make these huge [MISTAKES] which is [NOT SO MUCH {UNLIKE} the {BAD DECISION] of the NHL trying to get away with their [DISCRIMINATION MEETING BY THEIR WOKE STAFF TO HOLD IN FLORIDA] until DeSantis [CAUGHT THEM] & they had to [CANCEL THIS MEETING & APOLOGIZE FOR THEIR {OBVIOUS DISCRIMINATION POLICIES}.
No a thousand times over
No way !!!!!
I think that Both Teams would Say No to this Trade. The Rangers due to Still Believing In Lafraniere, but to see where He Fits and due to The Canadiens Not Trading Their New First Round Pick. Let me know what you think
How does this guy have 39k lol? Other hockey channels make honest and solid content yet they don’t get recognized or respected for their work. Why do we fall for click bait and give this guy views lol
I wouldn't make this trade at all! Mtl just needs to stay pat, draft and improve with developing our young players.
Its only entertainment guys have a nice day.
Greatly said. What a STUPID trade suggestion.
Lafreniere looks like a guy who can be a gritty third-line player who can score at a reasonable rate maybe Sam Bennett , SLAFKOVSKY is a plus Anders Lee- I think most teams chose a similar but better Anders Lee
Stooopid to repeat Stooopid !!!
no thanks last time we traded a young prospect for a disgruntled french player was drouin for sergachev look how that turned out
lol this is so dumb. MTL would never make that deal, it'd have to be Laf ++ to make any sense.
Quebec Insider said. If he was the NY GM. Perhaps if he was the MTL GM he would keep Slaf… either way I despite that insider.
Ok these are getting out of hand. Why would the habs trade their 18 year old first overall pick who hasn’t even played 50 nhl games? Ur videos are honestly getting worse and worse by the day
I pray to GOD we don’t trade Slaf for him bruh
Stop it. They can have Armia and Hoffman though. 😂😂
bust for future bust, sounds good to me
No. Slaf is going nowhere
This would be a meaningless trade, what would be the point?
Habs are a one line team at the moment, an the only solution is to build on what they have.. This trade would help nothing. Bonehead idea for sure.
This is a bad idea for Montreal side not because of Lafreniere's development but this is his final year of his Entry contract Slafkovsky is in his 1st year of his 1st contract . This is not a move I see Gorton or Hughes agreeing too
Lafreniere is 21 years old!
Calm down Rangers fans.
He’s not a bust or a reclamation project.
He’ll be fine.
No one takes Norman Flynn seriously
Normand Flynn is a former junior coach and very frustrated to have no opportunity and no skills to be hired. He's already suggested the Habs should draft Danick Paquette in the first round…wow!
Not worth Trading Slaf for Laf if you are Montreal,also doesnt male sense for Rangers to trade Laf for 18yo kid,trade him for Kane with package or something,but in this trade Laf is not worth Slaf imo
it hasn't even been a full season and that guy is seriously suggesting this swap? LMAO anything for a headline I guess jeez he should lose his media pass if he has one
I'm keeping slaf
Dislike 👎 button right here
Naahh, Slaf is gonna be a Red Wing soon, Stevie-Y is about to do another fleecing job and fish him out the Canadian river 😉
This is a simple matter of another nhl "insider" beating the old Gars de chez nous drum for ratings. N oone in their right minds make this trade. Ranger s say no and Mtl as well. Theres a reason Flynn isn't a GM in the NHL.
2 busts
Slafkovsky > lafreniere
