I'd say yes to doing a DiPietro deal.

If you can get that #15 and Nino in return, it opens up a world of possibilities. Either we could be looking at a future top 6 skater in Nino, and 4 picks that have very high potential. Or we could see 2-3 of those picks turn into a sure Drouin/Barkov/Mackinnon.

This may be the only forseeable way they trade up from 6. They're not going to lure any of them with 22-28 range picks. They should be jumping at this opportunity sooner than later, if the owners are truly willing to go all out, money-wise.
