The 1st being traded is fine if you get that goalie that puts you over the edge. Because if you get the right goalie, we're not picking until the end of the round anyways. With the team being this good this year I don't think keeping the 1st matters as much as previous years where we were just trying to get to where we are now. that being said, I'd hope that 1st is dealt with a longer term approach in net, like most of Trelivings trades, bringing in a cost controlled asset for a few years.
I'm fine if we don't move it also. But I'm certainly not as attached to this years 1st as I was previous years picks.
Smiths regressions has at least opened up the conversation in the managers office. Has to.
