In a recent article, journalist Arpon Basu, whom you know well and covers the Montreal Canadiens, proposed a concrete trade involving the Habs and the Buffalo Sabres.

"In the case of Dvorak, the numbers don't necessarily reflect his true trade market value.

A third-line center who wins his face-offs, who can play both ways on the ice, who can play on the power play and on the penalty kill, is an attractive asset for a contending team.

I believe the Canadiens will view him as such and would require a significant return to trade him.

Once again, as an example, let's say the Buffalo Sabres are in contention for the playoffs by the trade deadline.

If they feel they need a veteran center to stabilize things and play solid defensively, they might be willing to trade a young player like Isak Rosen, a very good prospect, but not the crown jewel of the Sabres."

Do you like the idea?

Rosen, 20 years old, was the 14th overall pick (1st round) in the 2021 NHL Draft. He is a Swedish winger who accumulated a solid total of 37 points in 66 games last season in the AHL, in addition to 8 points in 14 playoff games.

Interesting!

Would you trade Dvorak for Rosen?
