Parekh, Mews, Bru, Poirier, Morin all are competing for the same slot essentially. At this moment, Parekh is penciled in as future PP1 guy. Trading one or two of the d-prospects for centre prospects may be a way to start filling in that hole.

It's a catch 22
If they know which of the five are going to turn out ... say the best 2 then sure trade the other three now when they have some hype intact.
If they don't you almost have to ride it out and let them develop.
I remember when the team had Kylington, Andersson and Fox all on the prospect list at the same time.
In the end I guess all three made it, but I didn't have Fox as #1 for sure.
