So move a for sure good young player for two lottery ticket?

Chances are you don't get a player as good as AA at #40 or #71.

Easy pass. Yeah, he's fast but doesn't really have much more than 3rd line offence. Id rather pick at those spots or throw them at another team for a better player.

Edit: I know it's coming so don't throw the "He could be Mcdavid's winger" bullshit at me. That's Nuge.

I think AA in the right situation could prosper. He's kind of got the bad end of the stick in Detroit. Edmonton would be one of those places. Playing with Drai or Nuge might be real good for him. Wouldn't put him on the top line with McDavid though.

No thanks. I think we can get a couple of decent fill ins for our wings with those picks, but I'm not sure if AA is the guy we need. Not for both of those picks anyway. Maybe one of them.

I'd take AA in a heartbeat for that deal. If you break him down as a player, there's a lot to like. The chances of someone at 40 or 71 offering this much skill is a crap shoot. Detroit might do it as they've had issues with him but from Edm POV, why would they pass it up for those picks?
