Is it worth it to flip this pick and our #5 pick for a top 2 pick?

....seems a bit much to me...a mid level (for us) prospect like Labate or Subban plus the #5 would make more sense to me...

I don't think the Devils or Flyers would do either deal proposed here

I'd do it just for the number 3 pick so we can get Vilardi. Horvat and Vilardi down the middle would be too sweet.

I'd be stoked with Vilardi too but not more than Mittlestadt/Glass plus another solid prospect. I just don't think we're deep enough to do that yet

I thought I heard the dudes on TSN 1040 say that Trader Jim might be inquiring with other teams to combine both 2nd round picks and trade with another team for a late 1st round pick.

I heard that too, I don't know if jumping up 5-9 spots is worth losing the 55th overall pick too but who knows what will happen. We need to hoard picks not move them

...Vilardi is a year younger then Nolan and no injury history...I don't know, it depends on what Phili's manager thinks.

Oh you're absolutely right but as players I don't think there's any debate between the 2 who's better. I'd be shocked if he goes 2

Maybe he is on the line of thinking of acquiring a C with the 1st pick and a D with the 2nd, someone like Clague maybe??

I could see that for sure. I just know I'd personally be disappointed. I want as many prospects as we can stuff in our cupboard as possible

I think Vilardi is going to be a gem. I'd do our 5th overall and Torts 2nd for the #3 pick in a heart beat.

Yeah I hear you, I think he'll be solid too. I'm a big fan of his game. I'm not saying you're wrong, I just wouldn't. Gabe would definitely look good in our colours

Depends who is available.  They likely have their eye on someone in that range, reportedly (by one source) Robert Thomas.

The one thing I don't like about some of these mock drafts is some of them have Glass being selected 11th overall by the Kings.  I hope he doesn't become another Kopitar and become awesome if this does happen haha, or maybe not haha.

I'd put $100 down he doesn't make it past #10.

Wow easy now.  Vilardi is my guy all the way and has been all along BUT it's not clear cut enough that I would give away any 2nd rounder to guarantee him.  That's overkill for sure
