We've said this before: Jordan Harris is a LhD, therefore redundant, and Jesse Ylonen is better left unsaid. Replace them and the second with Owen Beck or Filip Mesar or Josh Roy and you have a deal.

Wrong prospects as NYI mentioned but the value is about right.

Regardless, the only way I see ANA considering it is if Lindstrom or Levshunov are available when the pick rolls around, in which case I’d guess MTL just makes the draft pick. Z’s sticking around in ANA
