i don't think so. i get that katchouk isn't established but i think value wise he's worth a little more than maroon.

TB has no real need for Maroon, if they spend assets its going to be on a Top 4 D and maaaybe a bottom 6 center.

Katchouk is worth more than Maroon and i don't think its really that close. Maroon will likely get about a second.

jbs is it possible for u to stop your bias? Why is Katchouk worth more then a second. He was drafted in the second round and hasn't prove nothing. i wouldn't even pick him his stats aren't great.

Katchouk has been great post draft and plays a better all around game than most that score like him. Also i don't know if you believe in clutch but he's got a tendancy to score late game winners and in OT. He was picked with a second but i wouldn't trade him for a late second. Likely not a top line guy in NHL but his floor is probably around Maroon who is a bottom 6 guy away from McDavid.

Also Colt you're far from the person to be telling anyone to check their bias lol.

Thanks for replies but for sure going to agree with colt, he has not even played a single game in the nhl and he’s not Tampa’s top prospect (maybe 3 or 4th best) . So value wise idk how an unproven OHL player has more value than Maroon personally lol.

Everyone is an unproven player at some point. wouldn't have given up Sergachev for Maroon last year and he was an unproven OHL player. Maroon is a 3rd liner, which seems to be where people project Katchouk to be with possibility of 2nd liner. I wouldn't give up however many years of control of a player for a half year of at worst a similar player. Not to mention teams tend to trade picks because they don't know who they'll get with them over prospects. I can see Katchouk traded but they don't really gain anything this year or the future in trading him for Maroon.

Yeah. Jbs has a good point. If a team drafted a kid recently in the second round, they have scouted, interviewed, invested time, developed him a bit. Unless they see something between that draft and now that they don't like, they would rather give a future 2nd because they haven’t invested any resources or effort in it yet.

Katchouk has done nothing since he was drafted to tell the organization he’s worth less than the 2nd rounder they used to pick him, and possibly has shown they could have picked him a bit higher and been happy. I wouldn’t give up much for a guy like maroon, maybe a late 2nd or 3rd, but not a promising kid I have invested in.
