Today Burke was mentioned as not optimistic regarding trading up for 1st overall. It would take considerable leverage out of Vancouver to move from 6 to 1 rather than 4 to 1, but they could put together a better package for 1st than Calgary can. My guess is that Burke/Treliving made the offer but the asking price was too much.
