So there has been plenty of talk about what to do with the pick we receive from Pittsburgh in the Perron trade.

While people are hasty to think we should trade the pick, I think Chia needs to look long and hard at keeping this pick.

I feel having a top prospect pressing from bellow the NHL team is extremely important. If we can snag a high end forword that we can let stew in the system for three years that contract will be extremely valuable come time to win. This is why Chicago has been able to remain at the top. They constantly have good prospect pushing from below.

So I pose the questions:

Would you trade this pick?

What kind of piece would you expect in return?

If keeping the pick which players would you target?

For reference this pick has been very good the last 5 years.

14,15,16,17 the last 5 years.
