Habs acquire Alex Newhook

No its very wacky conditions

*Conditions: 1. If CGY’s 2024 1st round pick is between 20 and 32, MTL can take that pick instead. Result: TBD

Scenario: In the event CGY receives FLA’s 2025 1st round pick:
1. If both CGY AND FLA’s picks are NOT top 10, MTL will receive the better of the CGY and FLA 2025 1st round picks. Result: TBD

2. If CGY’s pick is top 10, AND FLA’s pick is NOT top 10, MTL receives FLA’s pick. Result: TBD


Scenario: In the event CGY does NOT receive FLA’s 1st round pick:

Sub-scenario: CGY’s pick is NOT top 10
1. MTL will receive the CGY pick, and
2. If FLA’s pick is not top 10, is a better pick than CGY’s, and was transferred to another team due to prior conditions, MTL will also receive CGY’s 2025 4th round pick.
Result: TBD

Sub-scenario: CGY’s pick is top 10:
1. If CGY’s pick is 1st overall, MTL will receive CGY’s 2025 3rd, and the better of CGY and FLA’s 2026 1st round pick. Result: TBD
2. If CGY’s pick is 2nd to 10th, MTL receives CGY’s 2025 1st round pick. Result: TBD
 
I do enjoy having someone from
Newfoundland on the team. Would rather Dawson Mercer tho. Lol
Same here. I prefer Mercer, who I was hoping we would draft. While I am proud to see a fellow Newf as well on the Habs, our track record has not been all that good with them. Struck out with first rounders Terry Ryan and Brad Brown, while we did better with draft afterthoughts Michael Ryder ( a late round gem, really, regardless of his warts) and Darren Langdon(acquired years later). Don't think I'm forgetting any Newfs that played for us. .

Like many here, my first reaction on the trade was that it was a tad expensive. But there may be quite a bit of upside. Oh well, someone for you and I to cheer on for multiple reasons.
