As much as I like Adam Henrique, I don't know why Seattle would do that.

I am kinda new to the NHL so if you would trade Adam Henrique who would you get in return?

Welcome to the nhl

Thank You

Lots of stuff to factor in. Salary, position, destination, needs, term on contract, age. Many on here will help you with value and many are just trolling.

Think what position does he play, who would need him and do they have cap space or potential cap space. Now, what does ANA need/want and can that other team fulfill the need. SEA maybe the best destination but if they are also the only one then value drops. It’s tricky and everyone on here is wrong but we give our best attempts 🤣

Welcome! As @nyr1983 said, there’s lotsa helpful clowns here, and lotsa straight up clowns. Don’t get discouraged!

Maybe I’m saying the exact same thing as him, but the biggest things that I look for are:
-fit
-contract
-age
-fancy stats
-Whether the player has a no trade clause or not.

The last one is the one that gets neglected here the most

I disagree VEHEMENTLY with my dear friend and esteemed colleague @Lenny7:

The element of constructing a trade that gets neglected the most here on CapFriendly isthe effect the traded player is going to have on the team you're trading him to: namely, their needs and their cap situation.

Seriously, he and @NYR1983 set down some excellent factors to consider when trying to construct an equitable and sensible exchange. I think that the biggest mistake inexperienced fans make in that pursuit is starting from the perspective of "who do I want to get rid of?" or, more subtly, "who can we afford to lose?" That's the wrong approach. I think the right way to think about improving a team (because, after all, that's the whole reason why you make trades) is to start by saying "What does my team need the most?" or "Where is my team weak?" and then try to imagine what players other teams might be willing to part with that would address those needs. Sometimes, actual GMs might even help you in that regard: for example, Rob Blake has gone on record as saying the one area he'd like to address most is the left side of the Kings defense; specicifally, he's looking for a young, high-quality LD with term left on his contract.

To answer your more pointed question, Anaheim needs more scoring and also has to consider replacing some or all of its unrestricted free agents (Rakell, Lindholm, Manson) in the event that the Ducks cannot resign them. And as to Adam Henrique specifically, I would say that a return similar to Jeff Carter's would be within reason.

I hope that I've encouraged you, because this is a great website to play with and spend time on.

One last bit of advice: take positive reinforcement to heart, but try to ignore nasty critiques -- in my experience, the more vitriolic the comment, the less the writer knows.
