The problem is ARZ wants the moon for him. Last I saw they wanted two 1st round picks + a prospect or young roster player. That's big ask for a guy that's racking up injuries and a UFA in two years.

2022-2023
Missed 16 games (wrist injury)

2021-2022
Missed 24 games (ankle injury)
Missed 11 games (upper body injury)

2019-2020
Missed 7 games (hip injury)

2018-2019
Missed 4 games (upper body injury)
Missed 2 games (upper body injury)

2017-2018
Missed 2 games (lower body injury)
Missed 28 games (knee injury)

Don't get me wrong the kids is a very very good player, but that's a steep price to pay.
They can want the moon but it doesn't mean their going to get it. I don't see anyone paying their asking price but cant blame them for starting high, but it doesn't mean he wont be moved for less.
 
Some did. Most didn't.

Consider only 3 defensemen were picked before McAvoy in his draft.

13 were picked before Lorhei in his. Never know, but the odds seem against him being another Charlie.
I have 2 more important questions. Does he hit? Does he use his size well? (Lohrei)
 
If Hall can drive himself to Boston from Buffalo I can't see why Kane can't from Chicago.
Why ? so he can have his hip surgery done in Boston ?

I mean they haven't come down from their ask since last season. Could they move him for less? sure anything is possible. They don't seem like they are in a hurry to move him though.
 
I suppose but I`m one who subscribes to the notion that those teams who make the most noise at the deadlines are more often than not, playing golf without having celebrated a cup win

I feel teams who make the quiet, subtle changes to add some depth do themselves more of a favor

I`d like a Gavrikov and Barbashev addition

Doesn't change the fact that if you drop a Dubrincat into their lineup today, it would be pretty scary to face them in round 3 if we go there. That would really really suck.

Those two would be awesome all though I wouldn't call them quiet a subtle, although they would be filling the depth needed in Boston. Imo

They won't come cheap and they'll be plenty of bidders for their services. I'd be happy with either one of them but I don't feel either of their price tags will be cheap.

subtle might not have been the right word but they aren`t superstars, just solid NHL`ers and the exact kind of moves I think that helps teams win more so than the big splash guy

Glad I'm no longer on the lets trade for Kassian for a 4th line role wagon again...

Yikes. This season with the Coyotes...

33 games, 1 goal 0 assists -11 and only 28 hits. Less than a hit per game which is crazy.

Tanner Jeannot is 100% a player I'd kick tires on if I'm Sweeney. Young, can score, hits everything that moves - He's having a down season in comparison to last year, too.

Against teams like Toronto this is such a critical tool - they absolutely fall apart under physical pressure
