Thread: If Calgary wants to move from 9OA to 5OA
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>habs_trade_churner_50</b></div><div>It cost the Leafs the 7OA, the 37OA 68OA to move up to 5th in 2008

It would likely cost 9OA, Vancouver's 1st in 2024 and Calgary's 2nd 2025, to move into the 5th overall spot from the 9th.

The trade very likely won't happen.

(Pelletier is not worth the 26th overall, maybe a high/mid-second. Makes no sense for Calgary to trade Pelletier. I'd agree Zary is not worth giving up it either for the F lames, so don't see this trade happening. But GM's do crazy things on draft day.)

So if the Flames want to move up ... I don't see Kent Hughes accepting anything less than the package I proposed above

Or the 2024 9OA, Vancouver's 1st in 2024 and Jakob Pelletier. [For the 5th OA and Sean Farrell]</div></div>

26th is equivalent to 37 and 48 but I get what you mean trading up in the top 10 is much more convoluted then anywhere else in the draft

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>He didn't play with far less talent. Rossi played less than half of his ice time with Kaprizov and that's about it. He played with Boldy for a song. Beyond that, he played with bottom six players. There's not any meaningful difference in quality of linemates between the two, and even if there was, Rossi still outperformed Mercer as would be expected, and did it while playing a harder position as a rookie.

There's no universe here where Mercer is significantly more valuable than Rossi. Mercer had one standout season out of three so far. It's pretty easy to see the caliber of player he is at this point. Rossi has one data point but it's essentially where Mercer is now. With more data points that may change. But until Mercer has another 55+ point season, that's not the norm, that was the aberration.</div></div>

He had 1 more goal and 6 more assists playing nearly half his ice time with a top 3 winger I'm over this delusion Mercer had a better rookie season 2 years ago this isn't really even debatable enjoy your slow 5'9 center

Rossi was not STAPLED to Kaprizov in any meaningful way and Zuccarello is downright awful outside of the PP (the fact that you think otherwise already shows me you don't really know much about the Wild outside of stats). Rossi played with Kaprizov at times, most of his even strength time was away from Kaprizov. He also only got PP2 time as well, and our PP2 was putrid.

And if you're going to bring up his time with Kaprizov, we're not going to pretend like Mercer didn't also get pretty significant time with Meier specifically, but also Hischier and Hughes at times.

These two are very equal at this point, and again, Rossi outscored Mercer last season while playing a very responsible two way game at center. Rossi also still has the higher upside.</div></div>

Mercer's year was substantially more Chaotic and played with far less talent and Meier played the entire year with both MLCs torn a core muscle injury and just had his shoulder reconstructed and same with Hughes who played with a dislocated shoulder all year I wouldn't even compare them to Kaprizov this year
