That's the only blue chip prospect moved in the last 5 years.
And he was 5 years post draft and hadn't really lived up to the hype at that point (even though he's turned it around a bit in Philly)
It would be the equivalent of trading for Peyton Krebs or Alex Turcotte right now IMO. Which I doubt anybody would have been super excited about and calling him a blue chip prospect if the return was 1st + Turcotte.
If LA gets offered a 2nd for Turcotte this offseason I bet they'd think about it as I think he will require waivers next year.
