Imo the Ducks would be ecstatic to get 5OA for Zegras. I doubt the Habs would offer that much though.
Why exactly? The gm said he’s done selling and it’s time to start competing for the playoffs. Moving our best offensive player for a guy who won’t be ready for a couple years makes no sense.

Would possibly a Ehlers and Heinola for Zegras be a bit better as Heinola seems like he will turn into a decent defenseman when he finally gets a true shot in the NHL, instead of being stuck in the AHL year after year.
Oh joy an additional possible “decent” defenseman. Not like we have so many better defense prospects..

Your proposal is just not beneficial for the ducks.

Use the 5OA to trade for the player who the GM believes will help them now.

No.

The value a pkayer has in trade isn’t up to us. We aren’t making the trades. It’s only our opinion. And imo the Ducks would be happy with 5OA. Then they could use that pick to trade for a player to help them win now.

The problem with that is the Ducks shouldn't be the ones taking the risk that there might be a player that they need more than Zegras available for the 5th. Anaheim will set a price and other teams need to meet that if they want Zegras... and it won't be a draft pick. Ducks organizational needs are top pair RHD and top 6 RHS forward that are young enough to fit the core and are NHL ready now (not in 2-3 years). Ducks can probably even get by without trading for a RHS forward... it'll be a potential top pair D that is NHL ready now. The only player trending toward top 4 RHD in the system is Luneau.

You know who helps us win now? Zegras. Why wouldn’t we just trade our 1st to get a guy who helps us win now? That’s assuming there’s even a player available out.

You can think the Ducks would be happy with the 5ova, but based on everything the GM has said and based on the current roster and prospect pipeline; you’d be 100% wrong.
