Would you do Voracek, Bourdon or Gus, plus a pick (2nd rd) for Ryan?
- stveshdy

Absolutely. Theyd probably want a 1st tho.

I rather have Ryan but it looks like if we give up anything other than Bourdon its an overpayment in Flyerland.

Would you do a Voracek for Ryan deal straight up? I would. Anaheim probably wouldnt.
- stveshdy

I would, too. Agree Ducks wouldn't.

I would be willing to add Bourdon or Gus and a pick.

No, I would not include a 2nd rounder.

It would be a 2014 at the earliest even if they did, with 2013 being already highly thought of for a draft I'm sure they'd want something in that draft class.

Lets make it work OB. However, you probably want them to stand pat.

Flyers don't have a 2nd in 13?

2014 is in Philly right? They'll probably want some picks for the home draft.

I think he's saying they'll have a better pool to pick from in '13 because the draft is supposed to be deep.

Apparently they do unless this wrong. My bad.

Homer will trade them to make a splash. People love current NHL players more.

I'd want to keep all picks or land more if they are saying the 2013 draft is a good one and even 2014 looks promising at this point.

Draft classes are too hard to predict imo. I dont rely on it. Now if your a team that has to depend on draft choices then its a different story.

Martin, a 7th in '13 and a 7th in '14 for a picture of you next to the Rocky statue?

No doubt they are but no more so then if a trade will work out or not. Both are a shot in the dark even if it's an establish player.

This MacKinnon kid looks like the real deal- but so small

The lottery might have some real meaning next year.

Atleast your getting an idea of that player in the NHL. The prospects have never seen a day on that ice. Minus the early picks.

I catch your drift though.

He's just one of 3 that are in that real early battle.

True, still doesn't mean things will work out. It's a choice, if I can in most years I'll stick with the pick. That's not to say if a deal comes along I think would be good to make that I wouldn't make it.

But for 2013 & 2014 I'd do my best to keep my picks and if it's possible add to them.

I still couldn't name who were the first 5 picks of this past draft. And you guys are discussing next year's draft already.
