If you take Bo Horvat's finish to the 21/22 season, then add his time as a Canuck in the 22/23 season, while ignoring his time under the offense-killing coach in NYI, then extrapolate that scoring pace... holy shit, Horvat is a 60 goal scorer!
They should trade 5th overall + caufield for horvatt

'could' ... you're certainly one to change the wording to your advantage


Give it time, give it time, in the meantime he's breaking records in the NCAA.
oh could

like fantilli could be a more valuable asset than the whole active roster and farm system of the habs.

definitely could

Um if you look at his stats he has 0 goals in the nhl…. Definition of a bust

Why would they want fantilli when they could get a potential superstar in smith

I'll give my two cents by saying first the 5th + Caufield is too much for 2nd OA(Fantilli) while Caufield for 2nd OA is clearly not enough.

On the Caufield part I don't think you can't call him a 40 goal scorer combining two seasons where St-Louis was in. I understand that he has tremendous stats since he took over but to me a X goal scorer means in a season. The potential is clearly there and will probably do it.

Here we weren't allowed to call Mack a 100 point player before this year while with pace he would've clearly gotten it before IMO but still the fact was that he wasn't a 100 pts player. If we said that Mack was 100pts player if we count the 17 games he missed from the season before to fit my narrative is kinda a dumb argument. We use two different season as one sample where one could go on a tear or just go cold.
Caufield is basically a discount debrincat right now. It would basically be 5 plus 7/8pick (draft value of caufield) for #2. That is semi fair value. Anaheim has no incentive to trade the #2. That's why offering Hutson as a bonus would bump the value for the ducks to accept.

Regardless of "value" there is no realistic scenario that Verbeek trades the #2 pick this year. Sorry Habs fans, it's not happening no matter how much you try to sell it.

How is this thread still going lol. It's just trolling at this point.
It has been the whole time. Caufield goes top 5 or 10 in a redraft of his draft but that somehow equals he worth 2nd overall in a draft expected to be significantly better where the likely pick probably goes 1st or at worst 2nd in Caufields draft.

Been looking at this thread from time to time (not commenting) and it's STILL UP after 12 pages of Ducks fans saying NO THANKS. There's fangroups you don't want to talk with it, this is one, just don't comment. Good work HF, I always believe in you so much - such as I couldn't even read the site while sitting on the throne as there were so many ads and different ad-settings to agree to. The site didn't work.

Caufield/Zegras/Terry - softest American line in the NHL. No thanks.

Would rather have
Zegras/Fantilli on a line together.

WTF are you talking about? Fantili may be the worst player of that bunch.

You don't know that and neither do i.. Not yet anyway. But Fantilli is highly regarded and would be 1st overall if not for Bedard. He is a potential cornerstone franchise center with size and skill and these don't grow on trees. So you think Anahein wouldn't ask for something ridiculous in return for the 2nd ov and the chance to land their 1C for the next decade and a guy to pair Zegras with ? They absolutely would hence the ridiculous theorical ask i laid down in my post

Would the Habs do it ? They liekly wouldn't but then again if i'm Anaheim i wouldn't trade 2nd ov for Caufield + 5ov. There are very few incentives for them to do so considering where they're at in their rebuild.

that way the Habs can continue to get near the top of the draft because Michkov won't play on the team for probably four years. I don't know if Hughes and Habs fans are wanting that really. The last year all I've heard was that they expect and want the rebuild to be done as quick as possible. Michkov probably would be the right pick but there is a chance that would delay things.
Michkov would be in our lineup in 3 yrs.
#2, #3 and #4 will be at least 2 yrs away.
Michkov would be joining us just at the right time if we get lucky enough to grab him.

He destroyed the NCAA at a level we haven’t seen since Eichel & Kariya. Laf had a decent WJC and played in the no-defense Q and didn’t have nearly the floor that Fantilli has.

He’s probably already better than Laf so this is just Canadian bias or a bad take.

Dach? GTFO
Hutson didn't have to bad of a season in the NCAA.
Based on his last 2 seasons + projections by some equation not related to hockey he’s going to be the next Orr
And Fantilli the next Gretzky.

Um if you look at his stats he has 0 goals in the nhl…. Definition of a bust

Why would they want fantilli when they could get a potential superstar in smith
Or Michkov while keeping Caufield. Easy decision.

We wouldn't be interested in hugely overpaying.

Hm interesting… gunna need some Hab fans input on this


Almost as good as the Montreal fans that took over the luneau thread
I think he was talking about you.

That's the 5th OA plus Caufield which you conveniently left out in which that's too much.

Go read the OP again. Even if it were the 5th Id still say no in Anaheims position

Duck fans eh.

Try reading the whole thread instead of trying to put the whole fanbase on trial because of ONE POSTER.
Your not alone on the island the Habs would say no also.

Ive been posting in here so Ive read it. Ducks fans keep saying no and Montreal fans keep saying thats stupid and why they should say yes Id say no too. As a fan of the team that holds the 3rd pick Id hold the same stance as the Anaheim fans here are holding.

They dont care about a small goal scoring winger or a small defensive prospect when their prospect pool is loaded with them. They want and should want a guy who projects to be a high end big 1C to help them win when it matters. People are trying to convince a team that has had success with Getzlaf, Perry, Pronger etc they need to go small and skilled... Its not going to go over well
