Honestly, I would not bother. We are not in a position where we can shed the amount of assets necessary to get him. It would likely take Glencross + Sven + Gaudreau + 1st next year to get him. If you think that's nuts, would you take any of the deals listed in the original post for a 21 year old potential #1 center.

We will get our Seguin type player next year or the year after. On paper, we have the worst team in the entire league top to bottom, so it's unlikely that we'll finish outside of the top 3, and we'll likely get Reinhart, Ekblad or Ho Sang, and possibly a guy like McDavid the year following.

We need to get about 15 players in the same conversation as Sven and TJ Brodie before we can really talk about moving a couple of them for a star player (Seguin). We currently only have Monahan, Sven, Gaudreau, Janko, Brodie, Poirier, and Klimchuk. In a couple seasons, we might have enough, but now we unfortunately do not.
