McAvoy or Pastrnak. No other pieces from Boston would win a Draisaitl sweepstakes if their was one.
Reality:
1st - Boston does not trade either of those pieces straight up for Drai.
2nd - Pasta has an NMC and Mac’s kicks in this offseason. Neither are leaving anyway.
3rd - Drai has 1 year left, does not seem to be very happy there. Also has some trade protection so he can control where he goes somewhat, limiting your options.
The likelihood is low that Boston’s package could not beat, i’m sure it could. But a packsge of Swayman, Carlo, Poitras, 1st is not horrible either, fills a couple of big holes, and it’s out of conference.
But i’m not sure Boston does it either. Makes a huge mess after this year with Drai, Ullmark, Marchy, Frederic and a number of others all needing new deals. They are likely better off holding onto their assets and signing Lindholm. Which is likely their priority.
