Ducks arent trading Comtois, especially with how well he and Zegras played together down the stretch this season

They've been looking for a player like Comtois since they traded Bobby Ryan

Figured-- hes a stud. Wondered if POJ-Drysdale pair would intrigue ANA and they can move some older expiring dman

Him and Zegras will be playing together in ANA for hopefully the next 15 seasons, I dont see any scebario where he gets moved for anything

I doubt it, They have Mahura and Guhle who fit that mold and they traded for Fleury as well, counting Fowler and Lindholm and POJ sits at the highest 6th on ANAs LHD depth chart. the last thing they need is another LHD, the need scoring badly so right from there moving Comtois wont happen.

penguins decline that ANA trade. It's a massive overpay.
McCann gave them virtually the same production, is only 2 years older.
But you think you're getting a 2nd and POJ too. Not a chance in hell.

Yeah, this trade makes minimal sense for either team, McCann is similar to Comtois, but older and more expensive, not what ANA should want, POJ brings nothing to ANA value wise, and is very important to PIT, and they also have no need for Clang (Gibby/Dostal) who we just spent a 3rd on, like its and overpay from PIT, but just doesn't fill any needs for ANA
