Quoting: TMLBRIAN
We clearly value Zadorov completely differently. Time will tell what he ends up getting. I will gladly eat my words if he gets the 1st + you are suggesting.
If Leafs trade Minten or Cowan for Zadorov, I would be quite upset.
What are your thoughts on the values of all the other players I have here though?
I view Lindholm and Hanifin as being very similar. 1st + 3rd + good prospect. These are top tier guys and will fetch very big packages.
I view Tanev as being a 1st + 3rd or 1st + mid prospect. Tanev is a defensive minded #3-4 guy and will get a good package.
I view Zadorov around a 2nd. He is a phyiscal #4-5 dman and will have quite a few suitors. I doubt he fetches a first but I would be happy for Calgary if I were wrong. I understand the Chiarot comparables.
Okay, Zadorov aside
I don't know enough about Calum Ritchie, but he's at least a Recent 1st Rounder, not not bust 1st Rounder you're trying to sneak in like other might. So if this was the best we could get, than fine, but I'm hoping for Better Quality Picks and a Better Quality Prospect, like CLB's 1st + Sillinger + 2nd/Bean/Boqvist or BUF's 1st + Middlestadt + 2nd/Krebs and if he comes with an extension, more
A 1st + 3d is basis for a Trade for Tanev 50% returned, but it'll take a Sweetener like Woo or Klimovich to win the Tanev Sweepstakes and we'd likely prefer a Good Prospect over the 3rd, like Raty or Brzustewicz OR maybe a guy like Garland 30% retained instead
The Hanifin Trade is very enticing. A 1st + Top Prospect in Big Lian Bischel + a 3rd for Retention, that's nice, but we probably have to take something back for Cap Reasons (Faksa or Hakanpaa maybe?) and we'd try to upgrade the 3rd to a Prospect like Dellandrea, Harley or O.Back and possibly event the 1st to Logan Stankoven if they'll bite
I pitched a Trade with ARI for Hanifin with No Retention for their 1st + Soderstrom + Langlois + Dumba, which I feel is similar to what Hampus Lindholm fetched for ANA. Of course, Hanifin would need to be going with an an extension already in place or committed to signing one upon arrival
