Depending on what our plans are with Brodin, I'd be happy with this return for Zucker!

If we plan to keep Brodin (he's had a great season and has finally added some offense to his game), then I'd definitely prefer your 1st to Kylington.

Carolina aren't moving the picks unless it helps the roster, this draft is deep on forward talent, which Carolina have a lot of in terms of prospects. Calgary doesn't have a clear goalie prospect Carolina would target so ?I really don't see it happening

Carolina can beat that offer for Jason Zucker using both picks and a guy like Bean who's better then Kylington.

I also really doubt New Jersey move futures for roster players. They're still in a rebuild and it makes no sense for them to move picks right now

There are countless instances where teams move up at the draft. You want a goalie prospect? Well Spencer Knight is the top ranked goalie and he’s projected to be a late 1st.... there you go

Also there’s this thing called a cap floor, Carolina should be very familiar with it much like New Jersey. There are countless instances where teams with multiple picks in a round trade one for help on their roster

This thing called the cap floor? Hmm... Aho alone is projected to use over half the cap they have.... Carolina have their own first too, and likely pick him already. Therefore rendering this trade moot and unneeded again
