Thread: Zegras and caufield duo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FriendlyGhost</b></div><div>Ehh, realistically you take the proven thing over the potential unless there's a mammoth gap between the two. So <em>hypothetically</em> if you were to compare Zegras and Reinbacher's value, I'd say Montreal would add... But there's not a chance in hell I'd trade Reinbacher for Zegras.

That said, it's about as laughable as the guy that said he'd do Reinbacher and a 2nd before he did Hutson and a 3rd. I'd take Reinbacher over Hutson 8 days a week.</div></div>

There is truth to that, but not sure a winger (he isn't a good forward) with terrible defensive responsibilities, and a massive dip to production is worth more than a RD, with top-pair potential, even if he hasn't proven in the NHL.

For Hutson though, way more fair value than you are making it out to be. He is the best player at the defense position the NCAA has seen in the past 30 years

Thread: A Zegras - Reinbacher Trade for those that insist
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jeff902</b></div><div>Full disclosure, it is all in jest. I just don't get the Duck fans saying "It better be MTL 1st plus either Reinbacher or Slaf" I am sure there are a multitude of scenarios where Anaheim and Montreal would get a trade done leaving all those pieces out.</div></div>

That’s because Anaheim overrates him, which is typical for a fanbase to do. They don’t even believe all the reasons he’s being traded. They think he’s being treated unfairly, but he’s not. He has major warts to his game and attitude.

I agree, there is a chance a deal is made without any of those pieces being included, but some dumb GM will probably give them the return they want (one great piece as opposed to multiple good pieces). Let them. It isn’t worth the gamble and Zegras is a gamble. If he doesn’t mature this has the potential to be very similar to the Dubois situation.
