Playoffs would be nice this year but building a contender is my focus so I'd prefer to get an asset that helps us long term as opposed to keeping Glencross which only benefits us for the rest of this year. Glencross hasn't exactly been lighting it up this year either so I don't think we will miss him and whoever steps in will likely be just as good.
I agree that 2nd round picks are good assets. I'd be satisfied with a 2nd rounder. I'd be happier if we got more -- ideally, adding something of value to parlay Glencross into a young defenseman with upside. Bonus marks if he can play 10+ NHL minutes a night right now.

Any less than a 2nd though and I don't see the point.
