That just isn't the right package for Anaheim. We need immediate forward scoring help or quality RW or RD prospects. Neither Pajuniemi nor Skinner looks likely to be any better than the youngsters we have now and Zachary Jones, although an EXcellent LD prospect, isn't answering a priority for us even if we can't re-sign Hampus Lindholm. Jones is very, very tempting, but at the end of the day, I think that we decline.

I doubt anaheim trades that 3rd pick for nothing less than someone very good

jones is a very promising lhd prosepct with huge upside however i do see where doubts arise over trading 3oa

Philly declines we don't need Howden or Hajek.

The issue with the Ducks trade stems from the fact that, if I’m not mistaken, not a single team has traded down from a top 5 pick in the cap era
