I am still pissed that we got screwed last year with the order of our picks (and Rags somehow got 1OA). Dropping from 19th to 28th this year did not cheer me up. But the more I read about who maybe available at the range (plus if someone drops) the less pissed I am. At 19 you had an attractive trade chip, at 28 not so much. Cannot wait to see how Fitz plays this offseason starting with buyouts tomorrow.

I completely agree we got screwed last year, but the situation with the Islander pick is what it is. When you trade for picks with a playoff team, that's always the risk.
On the plus side, the league was pretty decent to us on the Sami Vats trade ruling with Carolina. The 19th pick is certainly more valuable, but both are tradeable assets if Fitzy wants to go that route.
