Icon33 Habs acquire Nate Thompson and 5th from Kings for a 4th

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
LA/MON talking about a Nate Thompson deal. We will see where it goes

News Update

done deal. Kings get a 4th for Thompson and a 5th

The 4th round pick was originally the Flames in 2019

Just curious, where would you slot him in the Flames lineup? Does he play on the wing as well as center? I don't know much about him.

Hated him on the Ducks but he's been irrelevant ever since he went to Ottawa and then back to California. I guess Montreal just wants to get bigger?

Deadline trades like this are sort of Bergevin’s MO

Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun
Thompson has as a limited no-trade but has agreed to waive it for a trade to Montreal. Both teams I think still working on the deal.

At the 2018 draft, Flames sent the 2019 4th to the Habs so they could get another 2018 4th - the 122nd OA pick and draft Milos Roman

Who gave Nate Thompson an NTC? They had to add a pick.

I feel like trading a 4th for a 5th is the kind of deal you make on draft day. Weird to see it now LOL. I'm pretty sure 4th and 5th round picks have nearly identical success rate

He has the perfect 1920s-1930s politicians name.

Governor Nate Thompson.

So the cost Nate Thompson is move down, give or take 6 spots. That seems really cheap for a serviceable NHLer.

Seems like a good deal for Montreal. After dismantling the previous regimes pieces, Bergevin has won the last few trades.
