Description
Hes a 22 yo who hasnt done anything in the NCAA before this year (and hes not even having a Hobey Baker type of season)... Not worth a 2nd round pick for sure especially since he could chose to not sign here at the end of his season.

So McBain wants to play this year and the implication is that Guerin isn't going to trade his rights this season if he doesn't get what he wants (a 2nd round pick reportedly). Guerin is (seems?) fine letting him walk this offseason, but since McBain wants to play he and his agent are likely going to try to find a team that's willing to pay Guerin's asking price.

Therefore, you either give up a 2nd for him to add to your team this year, or you sign him in the offseason. I don't think Guerin is going to budge on his asking price

From what I've gathered, he is a prima-donna that only wants to sign somewhere that is going to give him a top 6 opportunity.

He's big. Big means good in many GMs' eyes. Also 24 teams have called on him which makes his price higher

Which, he could absolutely be worth it. Pair him with a couple skilled players in a top 6 role and it is possible that he could be successful right off the bat. But, the fact remains, he hasn't really paid his dues and is asking a lot.

That is kind of ridiculous though, isn't it? Why would a team pay to acquire him when they can just sign him in a couple of months? Montreal is in the same situation with Harris, we need to figure out a way to sign him, cause once Aug 15th comes we lose him and wasted a good pick. TBH if I am a GM of any team I would steer clear of any prospect who commits to the NCAA. IF I did select one in the draft and tried to sign them in the first 2 off season and was turned down, I would trade their right to hopefully get a pick back. The NHL really has to fix these types of loopholes.
