Best comp for Necas is Fiala
Best for Zegras is less than Debrincat, more than Dach
Savard might get more than Zadorov
Best comp to go to 15 OA from 23 is Wings trading up to get Cossa

Dach isn’t the right comparable for Zegras

Fiala would be another good comp you could use for Necas, but ADB works as well

Thanks for the suggestions, of course there can be more than one comp.

The result of using those would be pretty close though. Not gonna argue about adding /taking out a low pick here and there.

Deny shopping him doesnt means he wouldnt consider an offer LOL.

You wish the rumors were over, but they won't.


Even if he was considering trading Z, it would be for the right price, which my fellow Ducks fans and I have not yet seen on here. He's not going to give away one of our top offensive assets for scraps

Thanks for making that such an easy offer for ANA to decline. Not even remotely interesting

Obviously 14th overall isnt scrap and makes it hard to take you seriously.

You just sound like all the Buffalo fans claimimg Eichel was worth 3x1st+, and Eichel was worth more than Zegras. At least he a center wink

Eichel: injured, unwilling to follow the medical advice of his team, publicly known rift between him and BUF, new team takes on the risk of him getting a surgery never performed on an active NHL player

Zegras: None of that. Still not fully healthy recovering from a broken ankle and playing point per game hockey as a.. center.

Is Zegras Eichel? Not even a little bit. But you’re comp to eichel is a bad one. It’s really as straightforward as why the heck ANA would trade their most offensively gifted forward for a bunch of mid value picks that are unlikely to land a single top 6 player. His comment may have been exaggerated, but this offer is terrible

Zegras is a defensive blackhole and everybody not in denial knows it. This is why Verbeek didnt signed him long term but on a capfriendly deal to make him a trade bait.

Got it I didn’t realize we were here to play the speculation game based on nonsense. Did you know Caufield has hated living in MTL and has secretly been pushing to be traded to ANA to play with his best friend? 🤡

Zegras is 4th in +/- among ANA fwds, 5th in both relative corsi and fenwick. Not to mention he’s a 22/23 year old, he doesn’t need to be a defensive stud yet, or even at all. He’s our most creative offensive producer and the team is night and day different with/without him on the ice. Been producing a point per game since he’s returned, and he’s still not even 100%. If you don’t like data, check out the goal he scored on LA just the other night generating a solo goal off of his own takeaway.

Tons of players sign bridges for many different reasons. Nylander signed a bridge deal, where is he now? Is Jason Robertson about to get traded?

You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion, but you should be a bit more familiar with a player before you comment so definitively, and maybe base your opinions on something other than media chatter and heresay. I don’t blame you for not watching ANA, we’re garbage. But your ignorance is being worn on your sleeve. You won’t find one ANA fan on this platform that wants to see Zegras go anywhere. There’s a reason for that

As other have mentioned, Debrincat is probably the closest comp for Zegras (slight edge in value going to Debrincat).

But I'll repeat this until pigs fly, ANA need players like Zegras in their lineup, it's a position (top 6 wingers) their own fans admit needs to improve. So if ANA is willing to move Zegras, from a positional weakness, there's something fishy going on... and something isn't adding up.
Habs should really look elsewhere if looking to add top 6 talent. Necas would be a good target.
