Oh yes, I completely forgot Scribbles is an all star, and has proven so in recent years. Other than his one year behind an LA Kings shut down team, he's never had a year over a .917 sv%.

Scribbles has proven he is garbage. Tokarski has shown nothing so far to suggest he is anything near garbage. I think I would take a slightly unknown over a pile of poop, wouldn't you?

So 2.5 bad games this year proves hes garbage??

Played behind tire fire defences. Saved 32/34 tonight.

Easy to look fine when you play 4 games, pal.

I would take someone with NHL experience and some success at the level over a guy with 4 games the last 2+ seasons

I thought EDM fans loved unproven players, my god. Wowy

I don't think a trade could be worked out that would be good for both teams. You guys need an nhl center and an nhl d. You can have Eller if you want him (probably don't) and the only D the habs could spare would be Young guys which doesn't help you guys right now.
- KovyFan27

Agreed, we need a specific calibre of centre and D.

a 3C and a 5/6 D isn't a good deal for Eberle.

Evidently, you guys aren't looking to deal the likes Galchenyuk or Subban for anything short of a king's ransom.

If our top pairing was McDonagh and Subban we would have crushed the NYR's last year and probably wouldn't want to trade him lol
- KovyFan27


It might be too much $$ on defense.

Not saying I would trade him if he was still here but Eberle on the Habs would have been way better than the mess that was Gomez.

His career save % is 0.003 worse than Price's.. Your fighting a losing battle

Tokarski's career .905 to Scrivens .914?

hard to call Tokarski's a career since he's proven exactly squat. AHL not 6 months ago

I would do it, but not the Oilers's gm. He's 31 and a UFA in 2016. He is not bad but he is far from elite.
- deadpoulet

But they need the second line center! But ya I agree no way I think the oilers would accept that, so what assets can you guys realistically give. I know galchenyuk, Gallagher, pach,and the two rocks on the back end are untouchable

His career .914 is better then price this year?? Does this mean Price is garbage? Price has a career .917 which is .003 better..

- McGallagher

The original deal was Eberle for Tokarski +, are you suggesting "a slightly unknown" is better than a 1st line winger?

Desharnais and Emelin?

Not saying they should do it but Desharnais is in his prime and can get 60 points a year. Emelin is on the top pair right now and is a mean defenseman that could help the Oilers.

Im not in here to beak back and forth with people, I was trying to see what habs fans would deem fair value. He was just being a dink.

Comparing Price to Scribbles... one who carried his team to Olympic Gold, finished 4th in Vezina votes last year and has 2 seasons over .925 sv% to a career back up until he landed in the sh*t show that is Edmonton.

Screw you guys, I'm going home. Between the commenters on this site and EK, I've had more than my daily dose of dumb.

Not comparing them, just wondering where you got the idea Scrivens has always been garbage

If Montreal wants a flashy winger like Eberle, they should look at trading with Philly for Brayden Schenn.

If Edmonton wants a serviceable available dman, they should look at trading with Columbus or Winnipeg.

There, I solved the puzzle everyone!

Even if we pretend that Tokarski >>> Scrivens, in what world is Tokarski worth Eberle? That's where you completely lost me.

Your the one that brought out the stats. Not to mention habs have a way better defense than oilers or Toronto. So the only time in Scrivens career where he had a solid defense in front of him his sv% was better than Prices has ever been.
