Don't think our 1st round pick will be play at this years deadline unless its for a Couturier type.

A good young centre is fine. A centre being paid like a 1st liner and eligible for UFA status in 3 or 4 seasons isn't worth it though, unless you are optimistic that this team will be going for it within 3 seasons (I am not sold), espeically if it ends up being a top 5 pick this season.
Despite O'Reilly's age, that move was not about the long term. So I am a little afraid that our 1st is still in play for the win-now crowd.
