If possible, how would you guys feel about trading both 1st rounders (probably a mid pick and a late one) and maybe a prospect or Connolly in order to get a top-5 pick and draft one of Hanifin or Kylington? We're a young team and can afford can wait for them to develop and it sure beats overpaying d-men on the market.
I wasn't really high on Ekblad last year, but obviously Yzerman & co were, they were right, this kids the real deal and already a solid 1st pairing d-man, couldn't imagine how much better we could be this year had that move panned out.
I wouldn't mind using both picks to move up, but at the same time, I trust Murray with as many bullets we can give him. Basically, I trust the Yzerplan.
