Would be the same thing if Calgary had traded all three 1st round picks for Monahan. If they have Nathan Mackinnon it's very likely we don't draft Sam Bennett. More likely they go after William Nylander in order to give Mackinnon solid 1st line players. I mean a line of...
Gaudreau - Mackinnon - W. Nylander
Would be incredibly sick right now. We likely also don't take Mason Macdonald in the 2nd round in 2014.
Every pick and trade has an effect on the future decisions you make. You know like the butterfly effect.

I understand that previous decisions obviously have an impact on future ones, but throwing out definitive statements based on what was rumored, but never happened, is pretty silly.
