what about switching the 1st for Weir and dallas's 2nd? really want to hold on to that 1st...NEELY wrote:LeCaptain wrote:At the end of the day the player you will get from that draft won't be better than Taylor Hall, and Lazar can be replaced in the future.

Hoffman - Zibanejad - Ryan
Hall - Turris - McArthur
Pretty damn worth it.
I think you can get a player as good as Hall in the top 10 if they pick the right guy. That said he won't be as good as Hall for 3, 4 years and you want to be back in the playoffs before that.
I still think you can flip the picks (Pitt and Ottawa's) but that's being picky (pun intended). I think Hall for Lazar, Lehner, 1st is about as good as you can get and that sets Ottawa up for years.
