The funny thing is that his production isn't even that great in his D+2 season in the Q. He's got that first round pedigree though, which I think is what St Louis was targeting. And he'll either be in the NHL or AHL next year, so he's close to contributing in some manner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When are teams going to learn that 1st round pedigree means absolutely nothing? Especially at pick 30 lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see them getting both Zetterlund + Holtz given how bad their defensive prospect pool apparently is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way that this has trended....it feels like there is a pretty good shot that this is done today for someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 Someone did bring up the point that trading Muk may mean no Gritsyuk down the line since he's specifically mentioned Mookie as someone that'll help him transition to the NA game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I heard that as well. I know I'd get pooped on at HF for this take, but I'd honestly rather move Casey than Mookie. I'm still not sold on a sub 5'10 guy as a defender in the NHL. He may be wonderful offensively like Quinn Hughes, but there aren't too many defenders that size who are actually capable defenders. I think he carries a lot of risk at the NHL level and transitioning that we don't see while he plays in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
