Generally a second round pick can fetch a pretty decent player in return.

Sutter used to pull that off with regularity. Rene Bourque, now there's a great trade for a second round pick.

I don't know why you'd want to set the bar at Lance Bouma as a win. You can trade for a Lance Bouma tomorrow with a 6th rounder.

You'd think you would set a decently high bar for expected return on a second rounder. Why are you setting the standard so low?
If we bundled it with a first we could have gotten a Griffin Reinhart.
