Description
I am willing to wager Zegras is moved before the draft.
Although I am not a huge fan, I definitely see high value of him for the Ducks.
HOWEVER, I personally wouldn't trade a 1-10 overall pick for him.
But I do think he is worth at least 2 pieces.
My thoughts:
Question to Anaheim fans (who are probably all sleeping right now),
Which deal do you prefer?
Trades
1.
ANA
  1. Miroshnichenko, Ivan
  2. 2025 1st round pick (WSH)
  3. 2025 2nd round pick (COL)
Additional Details:
You're not going to get Ryan Leonard from Wsh.
Washington would gamble here that their pick is not Top 10.
Therefore I would say that the 2d round is conditional. If the 1st rounder is top 10 Washington keeps their 2d round pick
2.
ANA
  1. Pickering, Owen
  2. 2026 2nd round pick (PIT)
Additional Details:
I don't think you'll get Braden Yager. But if so it would be 1 for 1
PIT
    Zegras
    3.
    ANA
    1. Kotkaniemi, Jesperi
    2. 2024 1st round pick (CAR)
    Additional Details:
    This one is super tricky. Depends on how Verbeek sees KK.
    Personally I think KK will never be a 50pt player.
    But, if Verbeek sees a future 2d line center, this could be interesting.
    Pick is Lottery protected (not that I think it matters)
    CAR
      Zegras
      4.
      ANA
      1. Harris, Jordan
      2. 2024 1st round pick (WPG)
      Additional Details:
      Again, trading away a 16-32 pick because I really dont think Zegras is worth a top-10 pick.

        I think you have some pretty skewed perceptions of values of players. Value is somewhat tied to personal preference so I could understand some variation, but this feels like it's really quite far off base, in my opinion. For example:

        What makes Pickering worth as much as Mirosnichenko & a 1st?
        What makes Harris worth more than Mirosnichenko & a 2nd?
        You don't think Zegras is worth more than Yager?

        If I were to guess, ANA fans will think these are all well short.

        Only comparable is Laine (and/or Dubois), which isn't very usefull: a young elite player with motivation issues for a young elite player with motivation issues.

        You could also argue, based on stats, that Zegras is worth double Dach's cost.

        So another problematic top 10 player or 2x1st+2nd seems fair. None of those 3x1st or blue chip prospect.

        Based on this price, PIT and MTL are under market, WAS is on the spot and CAR is overpaying.

        One thing for sure, I'm not factoring in any michigan goal in the equation.

        We accept none of these

        Z’s value is one thing and then what we would trade him for is another

        We are not shopping Zegras, we need to be blown away to trade him

        It’s also funny because all your trades are completely different values — Washington has like 3 times the value to us than that terrible Pittsburg deal
