Can’t see Comtois fetching a first in this strong draft unless he has a big bounce back. Last year was pretty rough for him

Agreed. And if he has a big bounce back, I can’t see the Ducks moving him unless it’s a package to upgrade.

Comtois is an interesting player. I don't think he's hit his ceiling yet, but he's not worth a 1st. Right now I'd say a 2nd would be pushing it, but possible. Also, if he's playing well enough by the deadline to warrant a 1st it probably makes far more sense for ANA to keep him.

So it's July and Anaheim fans are selling off players at the trade deadline already. I do remember those days. The returns are never as lofty as you hope. Oh, Canes pass.

The Canes currently have Burns, Pesce, Bear, Coghlan and Chatfield as NHL ready RDs. Unless they make a trade or go through catastrophic injury issues, there won’t be a need for Klingberg, certainly not for a 1st.
