I could see maybe one team doing it, and that's all it takes. But I would expect even that team to exhaust other possibilities in picks and players before committing such a high pick.
When high picks get traded, its more often for younger players with control rather than aging players requiring big extensions. Especially aging players coming off their worse year.
Many posters here do not want Calgary to sign Anderson for 8 years.

You have to look who is available and right now its hard to say who will be.
I look at a team like NJ. L Hughes in the 1st 25 games had 0 games with 22 mins, since he's 22 min a nightly with games up to 29 mins. He's about to get paid and is ready to be the #1 guy.
Something has to give with Hamilton or Nemec. Not sure what direction NJ would go but I could see 1 of these guys being available.
I could see Minnesota having a Dman available.
What dmen hit UFA?
Could be better options than Rasmus out there. If we want a mid 1st it might take adding a pick to Rasmus to get it done.
