IMO if Ekblad was they guy the wanted they wouldn't be taking any offers to move the 1st overall pick. The are looking to trade down since they like somebody else in the top 6.
However Ekblad could be top of their list and they may be uncomfortable taking a defenseman #1 overall so it could be preferable to pick up an asset that can help now while dropping down and still getting a guy they quite like.
