Dungass Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 How about swapping with Detroit? I hear that the Wings are hot on Bouchard, if Hughes is still on the board at 6th it might be worth it. But make no mistake, the price would be steep. We would have to make it worth for Detroit. PLEASE no one suggest Hutton, Baer, or Granlund. I'm thinking a second or third.

First of all why pay the price to move up one spot when the player we will get at 7 can be just as good. Secondly, if the wings like Bouchard and he is still there at 6 they will take him at 6 and we can pick Hughes anyways. What did you smoke before you posted this?

However, looking at their respective rosters, I see reason for concern that picks 4-6 will be used on D prospects (assuming the top 3 of Dahlin, Svechnikov and Zadina go as advertised) as all 3 of Ottawa, Arizona and Detroit have better forwards in the pipeline than defence. What do you think it would cost to move up 2 or 3 spots? To Ottawa: 7th overall, Baertschi To Vancouver: 4th overall That may stand a chance but I would rather keep #7 and trade Baertschi for nother pick if at all possible.

cripplereh Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 no need to move up as we are at a spot we will get a very great players either D or forward right where we are trading for 2nd or 3rd's or to upgrade makes more sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agoork Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I could see targeting Ottawa's 2nd pick (#22 from Pittsburgh).... but doubt it would be worth it to try to move from 7 to 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking the shoe was on the other foot last year, when we were close to trading down with Vegas. Pattersson was our man, Glass was Vegas's guy, but a deal was almost made anyways. Benning wanted to trade down and gain a couple of assets while getting his Elias, while McPhee wanted to be in the position of not letting anyway else take Glass. Trade fell through when the Rangers swapped with the Coyotes and started sniffing around Pettersson. I don't think this is exactly without precedent.

cripplereh Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 if they pay part of it and we get a 1st I am all for it, then we still need a D and a C then all set! or we could swap them Loui E for B Ryan lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you are correct we should do it if it helps us but I am not sure it would. Tkatchuk goes 4th. So If we trade up Benning won't take Brady he'll go off the board and take a dman. I am not sure if the difference between the 4th spot dman or the dman taken at 7th is any different. Moving forward Burrows eats ice time from a potential rookie. I wouldn't do it. Plus it's not 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect Burr to be the 13th F, and a good guy to have around for the kids for work ethic etc. All depends if Jim see's Boqvist as a grade above all the other D.
