Montreal Dumpster Fire

Alex Galchenyuk for Max Domi straight up?
June is the most puzzling month for Montreal Canadien Fans.
First PK for Shea Weber. Still early but Montreal seems to be a clear loser in this trade. Sergachev for Drouin. Again early but the trend is a bigger bad trade than the PK deal. Now Alex for Max. On the surface this is a trade so bad the NHL should intervene. I dont want to beat up on Max. However he is another speedy Smurf who cant score. Alex is the top scoring player from his draft year and should the draft be held again may be picked first overall, or at least second behind Flip Forsberg.
Speaking of Forsberg Nashville got him for a bag of pucks from Washington. At least this trade will not be that bad.

I remain in a suspend suspension of disbelief waiting to find out what has happened? The writ has dropped. The next two weeks will decide the fate of Habs nation for a generation. Buckle up, its going to be a ride.

"Therein lies the first issue with this trade. Galchenyuk was arguably the biggest trade chip Marc Bergevin possessed in his arsenal, and all he got in return was a player who scored nine goals — four of them into an empty net — last year. With no additional picks, prospects or any other assets, the Canadiens traded away their biggest piece of leverage for a single roster player who has 18 goals in the last two seasons combined, and that quite frankly is just not good enough."
