Honestly, I don't see any of the top-3 teams trading down unless they get a massive overpayment. The Avs biggest need is D, and they are in position to draft Jones. Florida really needs that top-line center and they'll likely draft MacKinnon. Drouin is the heir apparent to St. Louis in Tampa. All three teams are in position to draft what makes a ton of sense for their franchises.
