Well if the 1st overall want to pick now I could at least see what my options are , if I trade it or not. ( I got the 2nd )
Your call.

I want one of 15th - 19th and the holder's 2nd. I am negotiating with all five of them right now. If you want the draft to hurry, talk to them

If this trade committee thing actually gets off the ground, then I would be on it. It really needs at least 5-10 GMs to be fair, IMO.
And I really hope that if there is a trade committee, the draft isn't held up every time there is a trade because the committee needs "time to review." Only the rare problematic trade should cause discussion.
Trades should only come to this committee by request. Any GM can request that a trade be reviewed, but each GM can only make one such request during this draft.
Most trades don't even need to be approved, but some might look a little fishy, and those are the only ones we need to take time on.
I have taken trade talk to the trade thread.
I realize this is going to be a big adjustment for us all, and I'll have to do this a few more times, and I don't mind that.
I really wish you did it the other way around. One member of the trade committee should have the OP so we can update the trades made into the OP.

There was the Kimberly/Minnesota deal that was already reflected in the draft thread, then the EB/dreakmur massive conditional trade, then the full swap by jarek and TDMM. that's it, right?
If we're still of the opinion that more bodies are needed on the trade committee, I will volunteer to serve on it.
I believe I've come up with a fair but still intriguing trade package for any GM looking to trade out of the first round:
Your first, fifth, 23rd rounder
For
My seventh, eighth, ninth rounder
A couple of folks are already considering it, but anyone who is interested can PM me.

This trade doesn't make any sense. You're asking us to give up our franchise player AND a top-6 forward/top-4 defenseman for what amounts to losing a spare for a bottom-6 forward, bottom-4 defenseman? Sorry, that doesn't fly, and if anyone tries to do that trade, it'll be up for veto.
How about I just let the other 39 GMs negotiate my trades for me, then, as apparently I'm either always giving too much or too little? I'm not trying to be a Pronger over this, but vetos are meant for deals that would imply collusion or otherwise undermine the process- not ones you just don't like. In that case, I'm going to veto every deal because one team will always have a greater advantage, however slight.
