Reinbacher for McTavish. Who’s in?

I say yes as well because it’s still harder to get a quality center than a D, which we’ve proven adept at.

Matheson can play off-side.
 
If Reinbacher is the price to get McTavish, I'm in. McTavish would be a fantastic fit, big center, lefty, right age, good motor. I like Reinbacher, but he's not established yet and has injuries issues already. Obviously it creates a hole in our pipeline on the right side but finding a top 4 RHD is easier than a top 6 center.
 
Probably not. Would have to be part of a package.

But I would rather do that than create another hole in the top 4 D that might just be set for a generation.
 
Has Mctavish been the 2nd line centre for Anaheim? Some articles imply he was unhappy with role? His icetime was identical the past two years.
 
McTavish won’t cost Redenbacher..

Verbeek has the owner breathing down his back, was for the first time in his 20yr+ ownership involved in end of season presser and made it clear his expectations are team will be competing for a playoff spot this upcoming season

There is zero chance Verbeek will take a chance at starting the season w a disgruntled player in the room - reports are McTavish is looking at ending up a 3C and not being in a position to put up top-6 numbers for his upcoming contract $$$$$

So if there’s any chance McTavish is disgruntled he’ll be dealt IMO.. package will include Matheson + …

Ducks weak link is LD - neither Mintyukov or Zellweger are ready to assume 20TOI+ on a regular basis, Matheson would provide that transition.
 
They ain’t trading McT for Reinbacher.

Our guy is unproven AF. Just way too much risk. Having said that, I hope Reinbacher hits his ceiling with us

But if they were willing to, I wouldn't say no, which was the question.

RHD is a much bigger weakness for them organizationally.
