Toronto adds a starting goalie and partner for Reilly signed super cheap. If they can add Stamkos in free agency they would be nicely retooled.
The Ducks try to pull themselves out of a rebuild by adding a legit star and trade back a few spots in the top 10. They move on for Zegras which has been rumored and it would be an understanding a long term extension is coming with Marner.
The Flames get aggressive to move up in the draft and take a shot on Zegras. Honestly I am not a huge fan of his but I was trying to find a realistic third trade partner because I don’t really want Marner on the flames. Perhaps Zegras is someone who work with Huberdeau? I do think Andersson and Markstrom are perfect fits for the Leafs. I think Marner would waive for Anaheim and the Leafs would want to send him west. I also could see Anaheim doing something to signal they are trying to get competitive.

Personally, I wouldn’t be targeting Zegras. If people think Marner is one dimensional…..
Having 3 at this years draft seems like it’s just as good as 6 or 8 or 9. There’s little consensus on who goes where between 3 to about 10 from what I’ve seen. I’ve seen Carter Yakumchuk anywhere from 3 to outside top 10, for example. So unless the Flames have prioritized someone, I don’t think it makes much sense.
