No matter where the Florida pick ends up, I would love it if Conroy found a way to package those picks to move up in the draft if there is a high upside center available in that spot.

Really hoping the flames trade Andersson this offseason. Most importantly, I want to continue to see a progression towards young players getting opportunities at key roles next season. Trading Andersson without looking for a free agent signing to replace him would be a good step in that direction.

I wonder if the results of the draft just made the SJ draft pick more available. If Schaefer goes to the Islanders, does that put the #2 pick on the trade block? How close does Andersson with an extension (sign & trade) + 18OV get you?
