and yes, trading up and packaging firsts is also part of the motive here, although it is not chief concern. I see trading into the top ten so beyond difficult, to the point where its almost not worth it in most cases.
I will tell you what though, I see Jeremy Roy and Konecky available in the teens which is great. Probably only need to bump a first with a couple seconds attached.
There is a particular guy I could see majorly sliding to the 12-15 range. MATTHEW BARZAL. He has been injured, is smaller, and could drop I have a feeling.
NYI first and in reality grigorenko for Barzal on the wing?
Yes Please

we are fishing for firsts. although plausible, unlikely stewart or staff alone, reel in a first. it's merely a means to package something that will bring in another first. caps or whoever would obviously probably send him to the ahl.
there is just a fundamental difference in opinion on here in terms of the hopes for Grigorenko. I do not see the speed or grit, I'm sorry. If you are playing laws of averages, second overall picks do not turn into busts.

Girgensons
I dont get a lot of the shift Girgensons to wing stuff....someone has to be that great 3c shut down guy that we put against other teams top guys. we found him, he's right here. I think people get overly excited about these prospects. Be happy with what Girgensons is: a shut down guy, who most likely peaks around 20-25 goals.
I see nothing to indicate Grigorenko reaches levels surpassing either of those three guys. Certainly nowhere near the level of a Filip Forsberg, even Tomas Hertl.
I would reshuffle the deck and flip him for a Koneckny, Boeser etc. in a heart beat.
Any chance of yanking a first from a playoff bubble team involves also providing them most likely with something for the future and the present.
