You keep Zegras over EEK any day.

Zegras is a 100 point potential guy (doesn't mean he ever hits it but he is supremely talented). EEK is not.

That's why Minn takes him but he's not what the Sabres need, EEK is what the Sabres need- Zegras needs to be a 1C and he's not better than Thompson so not here.

I think Cozens is a better all around player- not every star is a winner and not every winner is a star.
