I love Podkolzin and think he will figure it out and be a beast, but I don't see any way that is enough for Anaheim. You could argue that Boeser and Beau are zero-sum value right now given their contracts, other than the fact you may be able to recoup an asset for Beau at the TDL...
I don't know if there is any way we get Zegras without including one of Willander or Raty, or maybe Lekkerimaki. Plus some other assets of course.
But given our need for CHEAP, young talent to help with our cap situation, I don't even know if trading for Zegras, unless you can ultimately unload a guy like Boeser, is really worth it. I definitely wouldn't move Willander. If they are going to move him for a C/W type player, they may have well have drafted Benson...
