#4 for #10 and #28. Have to be for both first round picks.

But it would give you a pretty good shot at

Ritchie, Ehlers, Fleury, Virtanen

And then it would give you a chance at two of the following with #28 and #34

Bleakley, MacInnis, Goldobin, Sanheim, Vrana, Karlsson, Tuch, Ho Sang
I really wouldn't. I would rather stay in the top 4 spots and pick up a player who has more potential to be a 1st line forward or 1st pairing D. Many of the articles that get posted here claim that this draft has 4 great prospects and then there's a distinct drop-off in talent.

We already have 5 picks in the top 90, plus we have a large quantity of potentially good prospects. The franchise really needs this top 4 pick, IMO.
