Just looked it up, but apparently we traded the 19th overall (which turned out to be Lauri Korpikoski) and the 247th (Jonathan Paiment) to the NYR for #24 (Chucko) and #46 (Adam Pineault) which we traded to Col. for #70 (Brandon Prust) and #98 (Dustin Boyd).
So we ended up with 24, 70 and 98 for the 19th and 247th. Looks good..., but for the Devils trading #22 (Lukas Kaspar) and #88 (Clayton Barthel) to Dallas for the #20, with which they picked Zajac.
