You can when you have a defenceman like J-bo. He was the highest D man being offered at the deadline.
You said 'guaranteed'. I never said guaranteed, I said it was imminent, meaning it was the starting piece going forward with the trade. If another team didn't have a 1st in play, then the trade wasn't going to happen. A la the trade with St. Louis.
Obviously a 1st was required in this trade as well.
