I would do Eichel for Lindholm and Tkachuk in a heartbeat. We keep our draft pick moving forward incase the team slides a season or two. I don't think Tkachuk is close enough to get it done by himself, so then the question becomes how much do you decimate the team, by keeping the draft picks you protect our team moving forward. Your going to have to overpay to get this guy, but the team is not talented enough to compete with Edmonton, that has become abundantly clear this year. I would see this trade as a re-tool, team should be competitive in a year or two from now....or we stay status quo and just be mediocre.
