We'll get a 2nd or 3rd for Stajan at the deadline barring some massive Brouwer-effect.
I like your optimism, but looking at what more productive players like Hudler, Hanzal, etc. cost, I can't imagine Stajan bringing back a high pick.
I do hope Treliving finds a way to recoup picks, though. I'm pretty unhappy with the Lazar and Stone trades because of the resources they cost is and the prospect of going through next year's draft with even worse picks doesn't sit well with me.
Re. the Hamonic trade, Friedman was on the radio earlier today and said Treliving fought very hard to keep a prospect the Isles were interested in out of the deal. I'm willing to bet $100 it was Fox, who's a Long Island native and someone Conroy has said other teams consistently try to slip into trade conversations like they used to with Gaudreau. Darren Haynes also said on Twitter the Isles like him a lot.
I hate shedding second-round picks, but it's far preferable to losing Fox.
Edit: Hanzal actually brought back a lot, scratch that.
