PPG power forward that is made for the NHL playoffs is a better player and higher value than a 5'8 Debrincat that has never whiffed a non-fake bubble NHL playoff game. You're also not factoring in that deadline prices are always higher than offseason prices because teams are desperate to make the move that puts them over the top with an already good and contending roster.
Also, Debrincat got a 7th overall pick compared to the pick SJS gets being outside the top 20. Don't care what anyone says about depth of draft, a top 7 pick in a weaker draft is always going to be greater than a pick in the 22-26 range in a stronger draft. Meier is going to get the Sharks a 1st, top prospect, and B prospect or they'll hold onto him. It's pretty simple. There are enough suitors that someone will step up and pay the price, especially with SJ retaining 50% this year.
