Reasons for the trades:
Chicago trading with Columbus is about as reasonable as the Penguins moving down because they are in the division but Columbus fears Chicago taking Barker and moves up, they overpay but they finally get a franchise defenseman. Reason instead of moving down because Columbus won't get Holmqvist and a 1st rounder from Tampa Bay for the 4th overall and other reasonable offers.
Nashville needs a center and Stafford is still on the board, I can see this because Anaheim gets an offensive defenseman (Nashville has loads of defenseman and they can pony up a defenseman) and still gets a center they need in Chipchura.
Minnesota moving down, I think this is beneficial for both Minnesota and Washington. Minnesota might flip 2nd rounders but Minnesota moves way down the board for Washington to either secure Wolski or O'Neill, I'll go with Wolski. Minnesota still gets a couple good players and secures Wheeler (a bit of a reach there) and might pony up the 73rd overall.
Tampa Bay moves up to grab Schwarz. They leapfrog Edmonton securing a franchise goaltender. They will have to give something else up probably to force Buffalo to go down to almost the last pick overall in the draft and they cough up a 2nd. What can Tampa Bay give?
That's basically it, I'm having a bit of a problem with the picks 15-40 :lol but bear with me, it's prelim...
Okay, well I changed somethings up, I still don't like some of the trades, I actually hate them now because I think some of the teams are overpaying.
The other problem I'm having is Voloshenko and Bolland seem a bit low...Am I wrong here...I was thinking about moving Soderberg down a bit and moving Voloshenko up.
