I also want to add something that I wrote last night in the JayBo trade thread:
Quote:
I am a big football fan, and in football, they have what they call a 'Draft Value Chart'. Basically when teams are trading picks, they can assign a value to each pick to make sure its a fair deal.
I understand that it does not totally apply to the NHL, but use it as a little bit of a measuring tape:
http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Value-Chart.php
For instance, Regher being traded for 2x2nds, both LA picks I believe. those would be about 20th in the round, therefore those picks are worth about 750 pts combined.
Douglas Murray was 2x 2nd rounders, Pits picks, therefore about 600 pts.
In comparison, the pick from the Pens was last 3 picks...lets say 650 pts.
Bouwmeester was a mid-round 1st, worth 1050. HUGE!!!
Keep in mind that those two picks together are worth about as much as the 5th overall pick, if we do decide to trade up.
