Trading for Zegras

That’s going to be a no for Anaheim there fella

Not enough his end talent of need for us to want to make any deals

Anaheims not trading Zegras for a grab bag of lesser pieces. There is one piece in Detroit that interests Anaheim, and it's Seider. Sure, it's not a 1 for 1 trade, Anaheim would add Tristan Luneau.

"bUt He'S a OnE dImEnSiOnAl PlAyEr!!!" Yeah, so are Patrick Kane, Artemi Panarin, and Alex Ovechkin, they still have value.

"bUt He'S pLaYiNg BaDlY tHiS SeAsOn, HiS vAlUe HaS nEvEr BeEn LoWeR!!!" Yeah, too bad he's signed for two more seasons after this, plenty of time for his value to recover.

"bUt DrYsDaLe WaS tRaDeD, vErBeEk Is ClEaRiNg HoUsE!!!" You clearly miss the nuance of the trade, Anaheim was overflowing with puck moving defensemen, yes, it hurt to loose Drysdale, but Mintyukov had emerged as a replacement on PP1 for him. Other than being right shot, he wasn't unique on our roster, and we always struggled to find him a D partner ever since we traded Lindholm.

And hurt is what it's going to take to acquire Zegras, if you heard the news tomorrow that Detroit had acquired Zegras, and it didn't immediately fill you with dread to hear the cost, then it's not enough payment.

Man wrote a novel defending an argument that wasn't even made yet. Trauma does crazy things.

That's a lot for a player who hasnt scored more than 65 pts

We're tired of this ****.



Yeah man, two middle pairing LHD, 28OA, and a 3rd line center totally buys you top 6 forward with RFA control. That's a craptastic offer and you know it.
