Had he been offered a 2nd, he would have taken it. That'd be par with the Moulson/Vanek/Gaborik returns.
The fact we didn't see a trade tells me he wasn't offered that 2nd. Probably a 3rd like we got out of Stempniak. I'd like to have that 3rd, but I can understand Burke wanting to make a statement to the other GMs as well. That 80-90th pick only has about a 10% chance of being a player.
