To me, this is the part that frustrates me when I hear rumors about Zegras. They never consider the Ducks side of the equation. It's always a pick or prospect that the Ducks will just be overjoyed to have. Then, the Ducks must wait years to see if they'll make the NHL and then maybe they'll be as good as Zegras and maybe, if lucky, better. It's just nonsense.
If, for example, Friedman suggested a Pettersson for Zegras trade with Vancouver, that's at least something to talk about. There are reasons both teams might consider even if I personally wouldn't do it. I'm just tired outside media assuming the Ducks are just here to help their team.
I mentioned in the Sennecke chat that Calum Ritchie is the Avs top prospect and team/linemate of Beckett. Nothing else really makes sense, and this would just push back our rebuild even more. Nothingburger.
