Quoting: Jded
ANA would do Zucker + POJ for Mahura + 3rd + 4th
Zucker: Costs a 2nd to move
POJ: Worth a late 1st
=Net of a 2nd/3rd
I dont think I could disagree more POJ is on the same level as Vaakaneinen, He isnt even enough to get me to take on Zuckers contract let alone give anything up for that package
ANA easily declines the OPs trade, and the one you suggest.
The same arguement against Muzzins value is there for Zucker, there are realistically 5 teams that can take Zucker on without sending cap back. ANA, ARI, BUF, CHI, DET and Zucker has no-trade protection so that makes a deal even harder to do.
POJ doesnt really fill any need we have and he would have to battle to not be in the AHL with us, even long term he might not be good enough to crack our NHL roster
I dont mean any of this to sound harsh if it does, just trying to explain my reasoning
