I don’t disagree at all about Zucc’s value. I do question if Zucc is the best investment for Edm with their pick though.
If Edmonton wants to get gully, I think they target a dmen with that pick, instead of a pending UFA winger.
However, they might consider that pick for a forward like Kreider, possibly. Younger. Signed for 2 more years. A Potential perfect compliment to McJackass.
I think I’m one of the few here that isn’t opposed to moving Kreider, but the 10th overall doesn’t cut it. So maybe there’s a possibility for a bigger transaction here with Edm?
Gorton has the assets to make big time moves. We just acquired a plethora of attractive prospects. We have vets. We have tweeners like Spoon+Names. We also have players that teams desperately desire in Zibby+Hayes.
Gorton Is locked and loaded. I honestly wouldn’t mind standing pat, aside for a medium move or two. But im very eager to see how Gorton plays his hand here.
He’s been ballsy since taking over, so we know moves will be made. The question is how big.
