I'd rather see us keep #6 and take our scout's best player available. Now that Nichushkin is coming over and it's a big 5, we basically get first pick of the rest, that winning streak at the end of the season hurts bad but we'll get a good player.
What I'm hoping for (pipe dream probably), is that we package 22 and 30 to Buffalo or Columbus to move up with the first pick and move down with the second pick. Grab one of those picks in the mid teens and get a second blue chipper and move the Pitts pick down 10-15 slots and bring in a 2nd rounder. Could maybe walk away with Lindholm and Domi or Shinkaruk and still get a good blue line prospect around 40th.
