Too much risk for that price, get in the top five of a draft if your giving up that much. Same risk except you can trade a 21 year old.
Eichel is Gilmour in this scenario.

Also, the risk of a forced rebuild? Hallelujah! Where do I sign up? It sure as hell would be refreshing to have an organizational direction other than the status quo of building ourselves into mediocrity and never winning any playoff series.
