Sujet: Zegras Since the Rumors Be Rolling Neither Side Should Do This
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SLAFSQUATCH</b></div><div>Anderson, at 50% retained. Has value to every single team in the league.

I'm really starting to question Duck fans.

I understand the need to get max value for Zegras. But, is he not simply a skilled 65 point wing that lacks 200 foot game?

And yes. If somehow Caufield was somehow in trade rumours and deemed expendable. A late 1st Beck/Mesar/Baron would look pretty good as a potential return.</div></div>

Anderson at 50% is still overpaid for his production. This season he produced at a fourth line level. Most fourth liners get between league min to 2M. The ones on the higher side are likely either elite at face-offs or elite defensively and Anderson is neither of those. He's decently physical and that would be expected in that roll but at 2.75M, that's still expensive.

Zegras has the potential to be PPG+ guy. He's still young. Also he has been focusing on improving his defensive play and he has said as much. That's why Verbeek signed him to a bridge deal, he wanted to see him improve his two way game.

You would be selling low on Caufield, not that I think he's worth what most Montreal fans would think. If Caufield was available and they didn't get a high end piece in return, Habs fans would be calling for Hughes head.

I looked at your other one, which you labelled as "too much". It's not that it's not enough, in its just not the right pieces. Anaheim won't want, if there was a desire to trade him, mid pieces. They would want a high-end piece coming back. Think of Reinbacher, 2024 1st + something else, Slaf. Those are what Anaheim would be after. Think of the Gauthier trade, they sent a high end piece in Drysdale.
Josh Anderson, even at that retention, doesn't have any value and probably even less so to Anaheim. Have to remember that each team would value players differently depending on where they are at. Anderson has less than zero value to Anaheim at 50% retained.
Farrell doesn't have any value, likely not going to be a NHL player. Also not a player Anaheim would want either way.
Barron has a bit of a value, maybe a 2nd. He's the type of player you could package with your 2024 1st.
Winnipeg's 1st, Mesar, Beck all are mid type of pieces. Anaheim, like alot of teams rebuilding, have a bunch of pieces like that.
If you want a high quality player, you have to offer something of high quality in return, not just a bunch of mid stuff. Ask yourself if you would trade Caufield for that package and if you say no, that's probably your answer.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SharkTank</b></div><div>Well if Detroit wants to improve defensively Barrie certainly won't help.

He's a lesser version of Ghost.

I don't know how bad Ghost wants to stay in Detroit?

Other teams know he sucks at defense but they love his points.

I thought Roy was a shoe in for Detroit being a Michigan Boy and knowing their need for a top 4 RD.

But apparently not? 🙄

Maybe Yzerman doesn't want Roy on the payroll for 5-6 years when he knows ASP will be a Red Wing in 2 years?

Let's say Yzerman signs Roy.

And signs Barrie for cheap as you suggest.

Yzerman would have to buyout Petry or trade/waive Johansson and trade Maatta.</div></div>

Run 8 defensemen. He actually mentioned doing that already. I signed Reimer but that could easily be a spare forward.
ASP is staying in Sweden this season. Probably a year in Grand Rapids at least, maybe a bit more. Similar route as Edvinsson I would expect. That's 3 years or so before he's on the team. Deal with Roy at the time, never know what transpires by then. Roy could be a good, overpaid though, third pairing guy by that time. The salaries can be dealt with at the time. I personally would prefer Roy or a similar player to Gost. I get the desire to have a good powerplay quarterback though which is why I brought in Barrie. At this cost, it doesn't matter if Barrie is not good defensively, I want him strictly to PPQB.
