Ducks' aren't trading their first round pick.Imagining a goofy one here:
Crouse+PHI 2nd for Katchouk+Thompson+TBL 1st.
Chychrun+NYI 2nd for Mahura+McTavish+ANA 1st.
Effectively upgrading the Ladd and Gostisbehere “there is no return in the trade” dump picks from 2nds to 1sts. Leaving us with FIVE 1st round picks and three 2nd round picks.
On the roster Katchouk replaces Crouse and Mahura replaces Chychrun. We get a new top prospect at RD and a new top prospect at C.
I'd do your deal. McTavish+Comtois+Mahura for Chychrun. I think it makes a lot of sense for both teams.Ducks' aren't trading their first round pick.
There has to be another asset on AZ end but not a huge one.I'd do your deal. McTavish+Comtois+Mahura for Chychrun. I think it makes a lot of sense for both teams.
That's a little nuts. Haha. Chychrun is a start defenseman. McTavish is a great prospect but he's totally unproven. There's a VERY good chance McTavish NEVER has a season as good as the last one Chychrun had.I'd add to Chychrun in order to get McTavish if needed.
Don't tell Jeff Solomon.
Take out Mahura, then. He's not very interesting to me anyway.There has to be another asset on AZ end but not a huge one.
Nuts indeed. I've always wanted a big talented C for the Coyotes. It's a fixation. If we use a 1 OA draft pick on Geekie, I'll be the only Yotes fan with a smile on my face. I think the longer we go without satisfying this fixation of mine, the nuttier I'll get.That's a little nuts. Haha. Chychrun is a start defenseman.

He won’t be there in the late first. I betcha $5 he’s gone before 20th overall.What if we get Cutter Gauthier in the late 1st, will that satisfy you?
Yeah probably.What if we get Cutter Gauthier in the late 1st, will that satisfy you?
Jiricek at 4th, trade up for Gauthier at 16th.Yeah probably.
Then I could focus my attention towards getting that big 1RD.
That is a nice offer and I have no idea who Mahura is.One of the solid ducks posters just offered McTavish, Comtois and Mahura. I’d do that I think.
Then do Crouse to Boston for DeBrusk and Swayman?
Then Kessel (50%) for futures.
Chychrun -> Mahura
Crouse -> Comtois
Kessel -> DeBrusk
Get McTavish, Swayman and a couple of 2nds for the trouble.
Imagine Capobianco was two inches shorter, a year younger, and a lot less injury prone. He’s not needed in the deal, but if he was on waivers, we’d claim him.That is a nice offer and I have no idea who Mahura is.
I like Jack Thompson better, personally. But I think BA will defer to Plandowski. Remember that Tourigny and Benoit Groulx are also net friends.If Crouse goes to Tampa, one of the pieces Id like coming back is Cal Foote. Think there's more offensive potential than he's been given the chance to show too.
You’ve probably met him. But I have to ask when. He looks taller than his listed 6’1 in the Sudbury games I’ve watched. Like in the goal celebrations he’s usually taller than everyone but Musty. Definitely a bean-pole, though.I like Jack Thompson but he's not a big dude at all. May not be a BA type.
Why? Why NHL ready?I feel we need NHL ready or at least near NHL ready prospects in both of these deals, Thompson I feel like is still at least 2 years away
