This of course assumes both Oilers and Canucks take Dubois and Tkachuk.
It's a good point, I think Arizona especially. The only thing that concerns me about trading down is the depth of the draft, it just seems like it drops off pretty good this year after 25, so are you getting anything worthwhile, but maybe that's just me because the dub is weak this year and that is what I see most. If they could swing 6, 35th and something else for 7 and 20, that would be totally worth it though, could add another really decent player at 20 like Debrincat or Stanley.
