Thorny Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 So Adams isn't getting the return he wants so now is trying to mend fences? Hope he's got it in him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Slight digression, but did anyone else catch the implication that we could be sending one of Jack and Sam to LA and the other to Anaheim? I would find that royally amusing. Pun intended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think very highly of Rakell? That may be why you’re feeling the value in your deal is right but I’d implore you to look at his age and production. The #1 pick definitely does not have more value than Zegras for me. Comtois also has a lot of value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely a ballpark offer and probably more than Duck fans will want to give. I don't people think people realize Comtois' value? Agree Comtois is good young big and mean.

Disaster waiting to happen. If that's the BEST current asset we are getting for a guy 21 games removed from an 8th overall MVP finish in the NHL, I pass Comtois and Zegras are both better “now” pieces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashsabre Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Bob Murray is the type of GM who would be in love with Risto: Eichel and Risto for Zegras, Comtois, 3OA pick and if they want to dump Henrique’s salary I would take him in a heartbeat. Good vet leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was good when he played in the NHL (as good as Rakell it seems if not better) and should just keep getting better. I concede that it’s probably close between all three of them, but I’d bet on the two players on an upward trajectory rather than the player on a downward one.

He's only played 24 games, it's such a small sample size - not enough for me to claim him better right now than Rakell. To your point, if he takes a jump, it could be possible. I'm not counting on a guy who played 24 games total for much of a role, though. I was kinda seeing Cozens in the 3 spot more less if we had Eichel and Casey both here, envisioned Zegras around the same Edited June 10, 2021 by Thorny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not counting on a guy who played 24 games total for much of a role, though. I only saw him a couple games but he looked pretty good and he produced. I get that his NHL sample size is small, but he has been highly touted for years, has done great at international tournaments, did really well in college, did really well in the AHL, then jumped to the NHL and did well. He hasn’t needed much adjustment time. I guess I’m just sold on the kid. Edited June 10, 2021 by Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
