For me the 1st round pick has to be on the table. I would protect it for top 5 but I wonder if a Hudler + 1st + D prospect gets it done?
I have no problem with 1st round picks being used to add players like Hamilton or Drouin. Drouin would join a core that consists of Monahan, Gaudreau, Bennett, Hamilton, and Brodie all 19-25.
