If someone proves they can play in NHL, like I believe Sven did, then you don't throw them away for 2nd rd picks....the odds at finding a NHL asset in pick #50 and beyond is pretty low...
I eagerly anticipate all the hateful responses.....

You can believe what you want about his ability - that debate is irrelevant. But what do you do with a guy on your AHL team who refuses to re-sign and is waiver eligible next season? Heck, Joe Colborne can (a) play in the NHL and (b) never said he wouldn't re-sign - he was just waiver eligible. And the Leafs traded him for a 4th.
