Shrug, all without giving up your 3rd OV this year as well? You get 3 top 12 picks this year and lose 2 seconds a 1st next year and patches.. it's not as horrible as you think it is
So Patches is the sole reason you make the playoffs or you don't? Really?
Sure you didn't specify which seconds, but we have two really high seconds. Two of those together could push us in the late first. (In terms of value at least). I'd much rather have us keep the seconds than having a late first, more chance to hit on players if we draft more.
I think it's safe to say Patches himself is worth at least a mid first pick. And then, it's not that Patches is the sole reason we make the playoffs, it's that we don't really know where we're heading next year. And if you take out our best goal scorer next year and we don't receive any NHLer back, it boosts the value of our first next year, which could easily end up being a lottery pick again, even with Patches. I would not imagine without him.
So we're giving up the value of 3 first rounders with the possibility of one of them being the biggest mistake we could make for two mid first round picks? Easy, easy no.
