Keep seeing this Robertson+2nd for Rakell, and I just really don't see the sense for Anaheim. LD prospects aren't really an area of need. Team should be focusing on RD, and wingers with scoring upside, IMO.

I think the consensus is a 2nd + prospect (Robertson is kind’ve interchangeable here).

However, I think he could pull a 1st from a team like Tampa or Colorado if he comes at 50% retained.

Yeah, in an ideal world it's a 1st coming back. I think the realistic return is equal value to what you posted, I just don't think Robertson is the guy.

I think defensive prospects of both handiness are a need. After this season besides Fowler, Shattenkirk, Drysdale and assuming they dont re-sign Lindholm and Manson who are their defenseman? Zellweger and Thrun are probably their best defensive prospects so they could use another or two.

They have some high upside forwards in their system as well like McTavish, Perreault and Tracey although you can never have too many scorers.

A right handed one I’d say though
