Player Discussion David Perron (D) 2 years / 4M AAV

For Batherson. They the same type of player but Zegras' ceiling is higher.

Batherson is just better than zegras.

Batherson is just better than zegras.

Which is only reason why Anaheim would consider this.

Batherson is better now. Zegras has proven same production as Batherson and is 3 years younger and can be better.

You could be right. I don’t think he becomes as good as batherson tho. He’s just too soft. Batherson is also soft but zegras is another level

But he's American. Booooooooooo!!!



Bath will leave and become a ppg player

I would want a better fit for the team than Zegras. I’d prefer Crouse.

Not for the price the Quacks would want. If we traded Bath for Zegras, Ducks would need to add because Bath has more upside in every way except for age.

If the Ducks would be fine with a combo of Perron, JBD, and a draft pick (best we can do is a 2nd), sure, but I doubt Verbeek takes that.

I want to keep Batherson and add a top 6 forward.

I think we would have to give them our first round pick (2025) for Zegras if we want to dump Perron and his $4M contract too. If they want JBD, they can have him too as we will have Matinpalo and possibly Yakemchuk next season. However Yak might require some AHL time to develop against pros and mature.

I would want a better fit for the team than Zegras. I’d prefer Crouse.

Would be nice if we could acquire Crouse too; I am not sure we could afford both, but we have the rising cap ceiling, plus Giroux's $6.5M if we do not sign him, plus Forsberg's $2.75M, plus trade Perron and his $4M salary, but would need to pay a backup goaltender near $1M.

I can't think of a less attractive fit than Zegras. He isn't worth Greig let alone Batherson.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

I don't think they are in a rush to move on from Perron, especially not for Zegras.

Staios spelled out last year why this signing happened. They couldn't get solid veterans in trades. Nobody wanted to give up the kind of players they felt their room needed at a reasonable price.

I could be wrong, but I think it's why we see Giroux and Perron stick around in spite of their decline in play. Especially if this is another turbulent offseason with lots of other changes in the room.

Perron played with Bath and Norris last night. So not sure I follow.

Yeah he looked good. I was thinking more of the start of the season when Pinto and Perron looked good together. Perron you can move around and still notice him, he can still PP and play in the neutral zone perron can still play through the lineup and contribute.

Amadio needs a Pinto or a Norris or he just looks like an overpaid AHl player. He’s a keep the play alive type of guy and without the help of a top center he doesn’t do much and not sure how that contract is going to look next year or the year after, Perron I’m less worried about for next season, Amadio to me I’m already seeing highmore do more so not sure what the plan is there
