Mathias Brunet proposed a major trade offer between the Montreal Canadiens and the Buffalo Sabres involving Cole Caufield and Rasmus Dahlin.
On BPM Sports, the journalist put forward a bold proposition. Personally, I'm not a fan, but it's up to you to decide.
«Mathias Brunet would trade the Canadiens' first-round pick (unprotected), Michael Hage, and Cole Caufield (or Kaiden Guhle) for Rasmus Dahlin!»

And here is the clip in question:
I admit that Dahlin is an extraordinary player, but I would never be willing to give up so much to acquire him.
A Concrete Trade Proposal from Mathias Brunet, Involving Four Pieces Including Cole Caufield and Rasmus Dahlin
To summarize, the trade would be:
- The Canadiens' 2025 first-round draft pick (unprotected), which could be a top-3 overall selection.
Michael Hage, who seems to be developing into an excellent young player.
Kaiden Guhle or Cole Caufield...
In exchange for Dahlin.
I believe the Buffalo Sabres' general manager would accept this trade, but I hope Kent Hughes wouldn't make it.
Mathias Brunet explained his proposal as follows:
«I think I can get him, Dahlin! I mean, Dahlin can lock down 30 minutes on the left.. You'd have Hutson behind him.
If it takes that price, I'd pay it.»
If it takes that price, I'd pay it.»
It's an interesting idea, but I personally wouldn't be ready to pay that price.
Martin Lemay admitted that he would also trade for Dahlin, but instead of a draft pick, he would offer Lane Hutson and Cole Caufield.
Dahlin, 24 years old, is a 6 foot 3, 204-pound left-shot defenseman. He was the first overall pick in 2018 and has accumulated 19 points in 25 games this season, with a positive +4 rating.
In his NHL career, he has 311 points in 461 games, including an impressive 73 points in 78 games during the 2022-23 season.
And you, would you make the trade?
