Thread: Fix at RW
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Flames123</b></div><div>Zary is probably our 2nd best prospect. I’d much rather ship him off for a better player like hertl, debricant, etc. not undervaluing brown.. just wouldn’t move Zary for him. But agree he’d be a great addition</div></div>

Pronman released his best U23 players…

Wolf was 50, Coronato 66, Ruzicka 95, Pelletier 99 and then Zary at 108.

Definitely think you’re overvaluing Zary. He’s a good piece but realistically you’re hoping one day he turns into something approaching what Brown is. 50 point pace last year for Brown, 60 point pace this year. Plays pp, pk and you already know how lethal he is with Mangiapane after they tore the WC up together. Plus he’s not even a rental, you get two years of Brown???

Thread: Hockey trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Cgyscott7</b></div><div>I think Zadorov has some value for all the same reasons Calgary picked him up in the first place. That trade would be to reclaim some picks and clear up cap space for a top 6 winger potentially.
With Hanifin, I think you know what you have and he's probably at his ceiling. Chychrun has a little higher upside.</div></div>

For those reasons though I think they hang onto Zadorov, he was an absolute bully in the playoffs for Colorado and I just don't see Treliving or Sutter wanting to put Valimaki in the line up in the post season over Zadorov.
I can see what you mean for sure but people thought he was at his ceiling two years ago before he played with Tanev and he blew that ceiling away, compare him to Jay Bouwmester in terms of career trajectory, he was supposed to be the smooth skating point getting D man, once he settled into his defensive game and took care of his own end he was a significantly more effective piece, the start of his time in St Louis could have been the most efficient years of his career. I don't think getting a Chychrun over Hanifin puts this team over the top, I think there are more pressing needs.
