Description
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.

As another top 10 traded recently, you could also argue that Zegras is worth close to twice Dach's cost (mid-1st+3rd) based on NHL production.

So IMO another problematic young player + a low 1st or 2x1st+2nd seems fair.

Don't start with none of those 3x1st (Gretzky price) or blue chip prospect.

(TRADES ARE FROM THE MOST TO LEAST APPEALING IMO)

        laugh Zegras isn't returning Askarov.

        And no Trevor Zegras isn't returning no 2 1st and a 2nd round pick, Get real.

        Knight and a 2026 1st round pick isn't getting the job done either. And Florida can't afford Zegras.

        I wouldn’t do Askarov for Zegras, even 1 for 1.

        I think that Zegras won’t gain as much interest from GMs as a lot of posts on this site think. Ultimately, that likely means he ends up staying in ANA. At least for next season.

        Totally plausible. Injury doesn't help to move on quickly neither.

        I do believe ANA is a motivated seller though. All those reports, zero denying by the GM. Money and risk management must be wispering in Verbeek's ear to act swiftly.

        As for Askarov, Nashville was ready to trade him away with another 1st for Reinbacher. Tells me they don't value him that high. Trotz wants high end talent and doesnt seems afraid to pay for it.

        Let's start with 'i don't like zegras' and even if the management somehow did like his play (even though he fits non of the boxes the current regime tend to look for) i wouldn't trade 2 1st rnd picks for him unless both have top 20 protection (yes...top 20)
