If they were trading Pasta, and they are not, it would not be for Hanifin as the main piece. It would be a young center.
If they were to begin shopping Pastrnak, do you have examples of young centers they may want? Young top-6 centers are the rarest to be traded, so hard to look at potential comps. Would you go for:
1.) A prospect center with top-6 upside (Byfield, Rossi, etc)?
2.) Younger player, but on bubble for top-6 (Strome, Roslovic, Kotkaniemi, etc)?
3.) A veteran C with some term (Schmaltz, Schenn, etc)?
(The names listed were just descriptive, to show the different ‘types’….not actual trade proposals)
