That doesn't follow. Established NHL goalies are often going for 2nd-round picks or less. Just because a goaltending prospect wouldn't fetch that on the trade market doesn't mean he has no upside.
But here's an idea. Since we're judging players entirely by what draft picks we could get for them in trades, why don't we trade the entire team for picks every season? We'd have the worst club in the history of the league, year after year, but hey, maybe one day we would have the entire draft all to ourselves. Apparently that's the object of running a hockey team.
