Quoting: Zach
Probably Mittelstadt and Bergman. Even then I'd have to think about it.
Are you saying in addition to the other pieces you asked for? Because that's definitely no deal. I'm not even sure I want to move the pieces I already proposed.
I'm going to give you the breakdown of how I see the pieces you're asking for here, plus Nylander. Yours could be completely different, but this is what I think of the pieces you want to be in this trade. Feel free to try and convince me otherwise, but this is how I value them for now.
Vancouver's 2018 1st -- Should be a very high first round pick next season. Obviously with the lottery you can't guarantee the pick is going to be a top 3 pick, but they should be one of the worst teams next season, which will make the pick one with potential to land one of the three studs we've identified for next year (Dahlin, Veleno, Svechnikov). I believe the pick will be in the top 10 at worst, but I realistically see it anywhere between 1 and 7, based off of the potential worst case lottery results.
Andreas Athanasiou -- He scored 18 goals this season, but if he played the full season he could've challenged for 25. And he's not done developing. I could see 30 being a realistic mark for him in a couple years, if Detroit gets some half decent linemates around him. He's so fast and dynamic that he could be a really good 2C for a contender.
Zachary Sanford -- Potential middle-six winger, most realistic scenario is he gets around 15 goals and 35 points. I know more about him than most, since I'm a Caps fan, and I can tell you his actual gameplay was pretty good for us this year, even though the scoresheet didn't show it.
Casey Mittelstadt -- Absolute beast of a center. Having him and Keller as my 1-2 punch down the middle is one of the main focuses of my rebuild, so I'd need a lot to move him. I see him being a little over a point-per-game, best case. Realistic worst case is that he gets around 50-60 points per season, but I think he'll be a lot closer to the best case than worst case. Around 70-80 points is what I think he's going to get me.
Julius Bergman -- Potential second pairing RHD, with a good amount of offensive upside. I see him being similar to Jusitn Schultz when Letang was healthy this season. A guy that can move the puck and generate some offense, and plays solid defense against quality opponents.
William Nylander -- High scoring winger, absolute best case scenario sees him with 90 points. Worst case around 60, based off of what we've seen from him. I don't think he projects to be a center, I like him on the wing. He's obviously an extremely dynamic player, and he should only get better. But I realistically see him hovering around 75 points per season at his best. I mostly have a personal attachment to him, because I've been really invested in the Leafs the past 5 years or so. `
Here's my big concern with making this trade from my point of view --
You and I both believe Rasmus Dahlin is going to be a stud. You think he's going to be better than I do. I'd hate to give you the ticket to get him and then some, and be getting Nylander in return, simply because he's one of my favorite players.
