Forge Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 That Calgary Taylor hall trade would have been very weird. I don't know that I've ever seen a rental trade he for two young roster players before and no pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not bad given the age of those two, and hanafin is probably a great partner for sevs, but really seems like a weird trade Shero did right with az though. It didn't work out, but I think shero was thinking that first rounder could be very good, and it almost was 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you add the pick from Vatanen along with Kuokkanen and you're getting more rolls of the dice, which is something I prefer because you never know with hockey players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 2 of the 3 greatest number 18 picks in history, and two of the top 20 picks ever made, and we have the greatest of each. #18, third best is danekyo and the best is sykora (Glen Murray was#2). #20, seventh best was zajac, and the greatest ever was broderie brodeur. It is a bit sobering though to realize that zajac is the seventh greatest selection ever made at #20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 #8 behind zajac is Nick schmaltz... Who is 24 years old lol. A premium selection #20 is not lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still on board with trading up if we can. I'd rather pick higher. Get me on the phone with Florida. #12 + #43 for 18 and 20. #11 and #37 (or #42) from Nashville for 18 and 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
