Quoting: bsilk18
Yeah Georgiev is worth more than a 5th, id say around a 3rd or 2nd? And i could still be wrong?
BUT: To say Barkov is worth Kakko (just the second overall pick), DeAngelo (who just sparked in NY), Howden (who is a pretty decent prospect), and a middle of the road 1st is bad. It just is! I dont have a horse in this race, im just tryna help both of u guys.
Barkov for Strome, Georgiev, Howden, Kravitsov, and 2 firsts is more than sufficient on Floridas end, and more than acceptable for the Rangers to give up (not giving up a top 5 prospect in the league, etc...)
I could maybe see Georgiev for a 3rd. I could be a bit harsh on him, I'm just not a huge fan.
And Kakko isn't a Top 5 prospect in the league. Neither is J. Hughes. Off the top of my head, both Quinn Hughes and Cale Makar were far and away the better players this season.
You have to consider Barkov is young, making 5.9 million, and consistently puts up 95 points.
Strome was bouncing around teams before settling in with Panarin, and looked lost when they split them up (maybe Panarin was injured, not 100% sure).
Lundkvist is unproven
Kravtsov hasn't touched NA ice, and didn't live up to the playoff hype in the following year in the K/MHL
The 1st will likely be pretty good, not franchise altering though
And Georgiev is inconsistent, and his value is probably at its lowest point, considering he is the backup/3rd goalie in NY and with the Wall signing it complicates things further.
You'd need to sell the farm for Barkov.
