I agree. Even if you want a full rebuild trading getting players like zacha have potential to add to that rebuild without ruining your chances at a top pick. Not sure why people think you have to trade everyone to be at the bottom and rebuild. Every team at the bottom has good players. Some are stars like Eichel or Seth jones or John Gibson or kopitar and doughty. Unless zacha becomes a superstar not sure he is ruining our chances at top picks. If he is a superstar isn’t that the point?
I could see hanifin being in a deal to NJ too. Not saying I think he gets traded but I still think he might. McLeod might be a sneaky cheap pick up. He’s probably dropped in the pecking order in NJ. Love to get the 2 firsts they have too. I bet they probably keep zacha at this point
