Trade Anderson and let the chips fall where they may.

Top five out if the question just too many teams that suck. However trade Anderson and our defence will be in shambles, the losses will mount.

Would love to get 9 or 10, keep the pick, hopefully land Frondel who seems to be sliding a bit. Be far better set up for next year. Personally believe that the sales pitch for Anderson is a first and a Center prospect and the second that happens the trade is done.

While always happy to be winning games if you manage the next two years properly by which i mean accumulate some center prospects this team will win plenty. Still also of the opinion we use our plethora of wingers in a trade for a center.

Trade Anderson and Vladar who i think are really our only trade chips of value, relying on t o rookie goalies and a poor defence we should land right at the top ten. Keep the pick. Grab a center with it. Use the extra pick to grab another defender, use our picks and draft capital to get an already playing young center( yes i know easier said than done, pinto, cozens type of deal with an established nhl’er ) with multiple picks still coming in upcoming drafts, a wealth if wingers, a good group of defencemen and goaltenders, we have vets in Backs, kadri, weegs, lombo, only one thing really missing.
