Sounds like Connie might have looked into it, but my guess is he wants to keep our pick. I liked having multiple firsts, hopefully we remain patient, trade some vets and stay the course. Acquiring Byram wouldn’t have been totally bad, but it would remind me of the Ryan O’Reilly trade if we did. The team obviously covets him based on metrics or their pro scouting which bodes well for him as a player, IMHO our scouting, analytics and development are top notch, hence why I want to see us use our picks at the draft or for young talent.
