So when Brad Treliving trades away first rounders like they are candy, he is putting himself in a very poor position to restock the Lead cupboards. Haha. He sucks

You are correct. That said, I also think that 1st rounders get a bigger opportunity because a GM's neck is on the line with those picks. For example, the story about Backlund, and all the opportunity he got with the Flames because Sutter really needed a 1st round pick to pan out, and the organization couldn't develop a C to save its life.
