If that is correct, and it may well be, the Islanders should try and trade down with SJ. SJ covets Schaefer and should be prepared to pay something.
Now SJ may be prepared to bet the Islanders are bluffing and want Misa, bit it's been rumoured they want Hagens also, so SJ may be concerned another team may move up. The SJ/Schaefer match is likely the strongest of the initial 5-6 picks.
