Lots of potential for that trade to blow up in our faces. As I said before, I would only consider it after the season, knowing the Oilers had already missed the playoffs (and probably still wouldn't do it)
fair enough... certainty of the pick placement makes sense prior to making that decision.

at 10-15 that's a bigger gamble.

its pie in the sky though; if Edmonton were to trade that pick, they'd package it for a bigger return than Bennett

of course, its Chia... so maybe he'd employ the 'scorched earth' strategy
