The Coyotes won't want to include Schmaltz and Henrique, nor do I think they'd want McGinn, but could be wrong, he could be decent depth for them. Anyway, Zegras for Maccelli and a 1st probably doesn't cut it for Ducks fans or Verbeek.
If the Coyotes did for some reason target Zegras, perhaps Conor Geekie would be the return (Zegras was 9th OA, Geekie 11th, in their years). More difficult to make a surface comparison of them when one was US college and USNTDP and the other still in the WHL ripping it up, but that would be ballpark to me. Arizona fans are probably looking at the near 2 points per game Geekie has with his new WHL team and thinking why the hell wouldn't we just wait, and I'd bet on waiting for Geekie being better.
