                            I'm actually looking to move up with that pick, not down. I do have some interest in Nieto.


                            How late is that MTL 2nd? If it's late enough, would you do that for Nieto?

                            It's a fairly late pick, but I still wouldn't do it. I'm not looking to trade away any 2018 picks unless it's apart of a trade up at this point. Maybe a 2019 3rd and something small for him. He just doesn't produce enough for me to justify giving up a second round pick.

                            Probably something like Frost + Harper + 3rd


                            Ah... wouldn't be enough unfortunately, especially considering what I paid

                            Not 1st overall. What about Brown, Ceci +? I mean, Brown, Ceci, and then we add more.

                            I'm not trading him unless a different top pairing RHD is coming my way.

                            I was thinking more of a 6th than a 4th. I'll also have to check the free agent market to see if there's someone I can get without giving up any picks.

                            What would you be looking for?


                            He'd either go for a top six winger or as part of a package for either a high end 1C or a really good RHD

                            I'm not trading him unless a different top pairing RHD is coming my way.


                            Yeah, that doesn't work for us

                            I was thinking more of a 6th than a 4th. I'll also have to check the free agent market to see if there's someone I can get without giving up any picks.


                            Okie; good luck with the search. And if you can't find anyone, can we meet halfway and do a 2018 5th? (Also, not to pump his tires, but the Nieto played on possibly one of the best pure defensive lines in the league this year.)

                            I was thinking my #8th pick for your #11 + #26 (MTL) picks. Message me on twitter if you can and we'll talk for a few about this one.

                            I’ll tell you this much — if your asking price is anything close to a first round pick to move up 3 spots, then I’m out.

                            In response to your question regarding Zucc.
                            St. Louis would be interested in Frost+1st round pick.

                            Regards,

                            In addition, we would be interested in Granlund and Zucc for Hall and Frost and a pick

                            That’s a little too pricey for my tastes. Frost is one of the top prospects in all of hockey, so trading him plus an MVP front runner doesn’t make any sense for me. If the pick was lesser, I’d consider the Zucc deal.

                            Let’s talk at the draft. I’m not shopping them at the moment, but if the board falls a certain way, I’m open to it.

                            The 1st rounder we had in mine, could be the latest of your bunch. Practically a 2nd rounder.

                            But it is still a first rounder. It’s like people calling an early second a first, but a late first is a second. Makes no sense. The pick is where the pick is.

                            I can do first + for Zucc, but Frost isn’t going to be the plus
