The Mammoth are likely thinking about what they need to add to 'win now' with the expectation that Cooley and Iginla are their 1/2 C combination for the next decade or more.
The Sabres also need more immediate help instead of whoever they pick at #9.
That is 4 teams that I can think of that would consider trading out of the top 10 if it gets them immediate help.

While that may be true for the Hawks and SJ, I doubt that Andersson fits their needs, and he's told old for their current payers.
Chicago needs forwards more than dmen, and would only move the 3oa for a young established forward. If the Hawks really wanted a winger, that could draft Martone or move Nazar to wing.
SJ would want a young dman more than an Andersson type.
I'd be sruprised if either trades their pick actually.
