<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Subbanator7667</b></div><div>He would be your best offensive player since Selanne, would come with a discount below 12 million and would instantly make your team jump ahead in their rebuild.

Gibson isn't worth much of anything, Zegras is a good player but will never be a 90-100 point guy and the 3rd does nothing for Toronto.

If that extension was in place you guys would be lucky to get away with only adding Zellweger and not your 2024 1st rounder. Marner is behind only Kucherov as a RW in this league, I think people forget that on this site</div></div>

He’s a pending UFA and we’re coming off a 3rd to last place finish. This was posted by a ‘Nucks fan for a reason. Unless he can be had without moving a single core piece (Leo, McT, Terry, Gauthier, Zegras, Mintyukov, Zellweger, Dostal, ‘241st) it’s an easy pass. You don’t put your future on the line with the hope that he signs an extension

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ImACashew10</b></div><div>Too picky. Literally created another team where Utah’s 2024 1st - likely within striking distance of Lindstrom - was traded for Zegras and people complained saying, “why would we trade a sure thing for a maybe.”</div></div>

First of all, the Utah 1st is not equal to Lindstrom. They have &gt;50% odds of selecting 7th or 8th. Lindstrom will far more likely than not be drafted ahead of that.

2nd, even if he did fall there. If you asked me who I prefer, Zegras or Lindstrom, I personally do choose Zegras.

Picky? Sure. I’m not really sure why you wouldn’t be picky with your multi-year 60+ point scoring center who just turned 23. And unless they draft a LHC, there is zero reason to trade him. Does that mean they <em>should</em> draft a LHC like Lindstrom? No. But they should take the best player available, and it’s plausible that’s him

Sujet: DeMelo and Levshunov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_92</b></div><div>The difference is that Killorn and Gudas weren’t close to the top of their free agent class. Demelo is arguable a top 3 available player at a position that most teams in the league need.

Mark my words, Demelo isn’t going to a bottom feeder like Anaheim.</div></div>

That’s reasonably fair to assume. I don’t think your perspective is outrageous in any way, maybe just the confidence you have behind it without anything concrete from the player.

Look where Gaudreau signed when he had his pick of the litter. There’s more that goes into these decisions than just playing for the best available team 100% of the time. It’s not unreasonable that a 31 year old might be interested in choosing a nice place to live with a warm climate to settle down with his family. Especially somewhere with ample cap space to give him a pay day, where he can play the role of a leader for a team expected to be on the rise.

Not saying ANA is happening, or even likely. Just that maybe it’s not as clear cut as you make it out to be 🤷‍♂️
