Would you give up, say, 25 and 2 2nds to move up 10-12 spots?

Personally? The player targeted would have to be pretty highly thought of (like if Iginla was somehow still there at 12), but yeah I'd do it for the right guy.
And then keep selling off guys like kuzmenkov at deadlines to keep the 1st/2nd round pick machine topped up for the rebuild.
