I think that Carolina might if Jones is already gone when they pick. They have high end talent up front already, need cheap 2nd line fowards, and need defensemen. So would they drop down for a guy like Nurse.

And is the difference between Lindholm/ Monahan and Mackinnon worth Glencross.
Glencross + our 1st is a high price to pay just to move up a few spots into the top 3. But I think it worth it if we can acquire Jones, Mackinnon or Drouin. Would a teams such as Carolina, Florida or Colorado accept such a trade? Likely not.

The most likely team to trade down would be Colorado. If they were miss out on Jones but then again the would pick up Drouin to play LW for one of their 3 #1C...

Fingers crossed that Valeri Nichushkin will be picked in top 3-5 ranging and pushing other prospects down.
