Would only like to see something like this happen if and only if, we fall out of the playoff hunt. Cause we are looking for a D man, as we are in the playoff picture as of right now.
Not that I'm interested at all, but Therien threw Eller under the bus earlier this week, after the Habs shootout loss to the Panthers. Postgame Therien said he didn't use Eller or Sekac in the shootout because he wanted to use players that had some offensive ability.
If there was a time when Eller might be had for less than whatever his value is, it could be now. Sekac would be really interesting, but isn't going anywhere despite comments like that. Eller could be.
