The 1st round pick sounds sexy, but right now it's going to be one of the last two picks, so it's not like it's a top 20 pick or anything.

Late 1st round picks can turn into Claude Giroux or Corey Perry. Emile Poirier is looking like a really nice addition to our prospect pool and he was a late 1st. I think it's not a bad return for the Leafs based on what they gave up. We got a similar return for Bouwmeester and Iginla as the Leafs got for two depth players bundled.
