To Ducks------Pulock

To Islanders---Zegras


When everyone is healthy the Isles will have too many defenseman and Zegras has had down years the past 2 seasons and can use a change of scenery.
 
Yeah, Zegras and a coach that demands him not to play tiktok hockey is a good combo. Might as well tell him to stay away from physical contact like Pierre Engvall.
 
Pulock has a full NTC, the one most likely to go is Dobson.

I think it depends. Dobson goes if we get a 1st line forward back, Pulock goes if we get a 2nd liner.

Only way I can see us trading Dobson without getting a top line forward back is if we make a huge UFA signing and need the cap space, but even then we have Nelson and Palmieri coming off the books

Pulock doesn’t go. Isles fans have been trying to wish this into existence since before that extension even went into effect and here we are three years later.

A 30 year old D man to a team starved for offense for a 23 year old who sets up plays most of the time he's on the ice? The stats may not be there, but there's a reason the Ducks look more dangerous when he's on the ice. This only looks at what one team needs and can afford to get rid of. Ducks need to add a goal scorer to Zegras, even early in the season the chances were there, his linemates just couldn't convert. Now he's starting to put up points since he came back from injury, and that's playing out of position. He should be a center and looks much better there, but Cronin refuses to do anything that works. And that's not even bringing up the fact that the Ducks are rotating young D already because there aren't enough spots.

Zegras, 1st for TK. Ducks for sure need 1st line veteran winger, who's one of the best PKer in the league. And Flyers get young center with potential (kinda questionable one but still) plus 1st is 1st.

Nothing against Konecny, but he doesn't fit into our compete window. Ducks aren't trading future core pieces like Z and a top 10 pick for win now additions.

Yes, a rebuilding team should trade their dynamic 23 year old who makes his linemates better. Makes a lot of sense.
