Canes do not need LHD.
Ducks want our 2024 pick not 2025.
Not sure if the 3rd trade is a win for either team. Sometimes just to trade to trade isn't worth it. Habs know what they have in Anderson. Might be worse if they get another cap dump.

Would rather just have Risto than Anderson and two meh prospects.

With the right retention Risto could be moved without having to take a bad contract like Anderson back

Struble would be your second pair LD at the moment..... but okay "meh" like what ?

The Flyers-Habs trade is pretty creative. Farrell and Struble will never be top of the lineup players, but they can both be helpful players and they fit the Flyers timeline. I think taking Anderson back would give the Flyers pause because they could potentially get off Risto with a small retention and improve their short-to-mid-term cap situation. I don't know if they would be able to get off Anderson's contract in the same way.

Huh interesting because York, Sanheim, Drysdale, Seeler, and Risto are all probably better but that’s interesting.

Seeler and Risto are not better

Seeler is absolutely better lol he’s one of the most underrated defenseman in the league.

Ur talking about a kid with 56 games played in the league. If he was as good as you think he is it wouldn’t only be 56 games.

Bingo.
And the reason why is because contrary to belief popular in Montreal, Zegras isn't on the market so it would take an exceptional offer to pry him loose.

Honestly mind blowing how many times the same Zegras trade has been reposted with the same feedback for going on 6 months now 🥱 🤦‍♂️

Hey I've seen that terrible Zegras proposal before... Anaheim's answer hasn't changed either
