I know how many people here tend to hate the "Not skilled enough for top 6 and not tough enough for bottom 6" cliche and for a good reason (in today's NHL). I can't help but I see Baertschi v 2.0 in him.

What about 2nd round pick and a prospect ?
Minnesota sends us a 2nd and a prospect for Granlund?

Not sure any team would be willing to send us a 2nd for Granlund. Maybe Minnesota is that one team. I certainly don't think they'd add a prospect but you never know.

I don't think his value is that high until he shows he can produce at the NHL level unless some scout has seen him at his best in the AHL and is a big believer. I would think his current value is around a 3rd rounder if I had to guess.
