Yeah I can't see them giving up a top pick in the draft, especially as it is a top 10 pick. I still am amazed as to the fact that the Senators have to give up a first round pick, in what seems like a case of the Knights also not doing their due diligence and reading the contract for the player they traded for.
I know that it isn't the most popular thing to do but I do think that if it wasn't the Knights complaining I don't think anything would have been done but they are the golden child of the NHL right now. There are teams that have done much worse things and there hasn't been any indication of them having a first round pick stripped away.
