David Savard’s value on the NHL transaction market has just experienced a meteoric rise. With the recent trade involving Sean Walker to Colorado and a first-round pick, it is now clear that Savard is also able to attract similar interest.
Compared to Walker, Savard offers invaluable experience and defensive reliability that does not go unnoticed.
While Walker shines with his offensive play and youth, he can sometimes leave gaps defensively, making him less reliable in certain crucial situations.
On the other hand, Savard is renowned for his solid defensive play, capable of neutralizing opposing attacks with formidable efficiency.
Additionally, Savard’s contractual situation represents a significant advantage over Walker’s. While Savard is under contract for next season, providing long-term stability, Walker comes to Colorado as a current player.
With teams such as Toronto, Long Island, Tampa Bay (their top pick is Noah Hanifin), Edmonton, Vancouver, Detroit, Boston and Nashville all showing strong interest in Savard, it’s clear that his potential market value is significant.
Playoff-seeking teams recognize the importance of adding a caliber player like Savard to their roster to improve their defense and increase their chances of success in the playoffs.
This rise in Savard’s value suggests that the CH could consider obtaining a first-round pick in return for his services.
With the growing demand for reliable defenders like Savard, it is likely that negotiations over him will intensify in the coming hours, providing Kent Hughes with a valuable opportunity to optimize his assets for the future.
