We win the draft I wold seriously consider trading down and try to get a team (Arizona) to cough up other assets along with their 1st to take Matthews. I said it earlier in this thread, my dream scenario is we win the draft lotto, Arizona gets the 2nd or 3rd pick, and we trade them the 1st over all for their 1st rounder and then MacInnis and Christian and costs of getting Matthews, and we take Laine or Puljujarvi. We then package our other picks, hopefully the ones we accrue at the deadline, to move up and draft Gauthier. We would walk away with two high quality RWers and two really good center ice prospects. That would really make out prospect depth unbelievable at all positions.
