Confirmed with Link: [VGK/MTL] Schlemko to Montreal for a 5th RD pick

The Sharks may have preferred to lose Schlemko over some of the other exposed players.

Pretty much confirmed by Doug Wilson.

A 5th rd pick in 2019 is a 7th rd pick in 2017.
They need a manager.

On pure pick value I agree with you. However Vegas is in something of a unique situation where they're likely more amenable to spreading some picks out over the next few years even if it's less pure value on the pick chart.

You can always trade picks, much easier to trade picks than players.
