<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jded</b></div><div>Is Pet likely better than those players? Absolutely yes. But in ANA’s position being a non-competitive team (with or without Pet) that needs multiple pieces and a couple years for our young players to develop, I’d easily prefer Celebrini joining us for just a 1st round pick on an ELC versus shedding 3 valuable assets to sign someone 7 years older who will require an 8 figure contract that will then unfavorably impact the cost to sign all our current ELCs

To be honest, that decision wouldn’t be remotely difficult imo. Levshunov would be the tougher one. But we need a #1RD pretty desperately and we do not lack for stud Centers at all. The value would have to make sense to forego taking Lev, and I don’t see how another team more in need of a #1C wouldn’t be willing to pay more</div></div>

I hate this argument. The ducks shouldn’t add a bonafide superstar because they’re a non competitive team right now? So they should just be content losing non competitive games because they have young players?

No you make your team better using those young assets to acquire better players while also developing the other young talent.

If this trade is made the ducks would have EP, Leo, McT, Terry, and Cutter for their top 6 long term. That should be elite. They would still have Minty, one of LaCombe/Zellweger, and Luneau to build the around after Gudas and Fowler deals are up. There’s still plenty of a young core to build around. Not to mention a late 1st and two 2nds to continue building the prospect pool.

As for the contracts, getting EP40 signed to a deal would actually be beneficial. If McT, Leo etc. only produce at a Terry clip they get something around his cap %, if they dominate and end up around EP40s production they get something hear his cap%. The bar will be set within the team. Otherwise they could be setting their own bar based off contracts around the league. Also if they are producing enough to get the EP40 contract then the team will be making deep playoff runs and a cap crunch usually coincides with that.
