    Default Curious: 3rd + 8th for 2nd (Eichel)?

    Just sort of curious. I have the 3rd overall and 8th overall this year for a draft that is primarily 2015 draftees (+ the odd NCAA or Euro FA... i.e. Panarin) for a roto multicat league.

    Am pretty stoked to have my pick of Marner/Strome/Hanifin, and to get another player from the Provorov/Rantanen/Barzal/Zacha/Panarin group. Given that I may not get picks this high again for several years, this will be a fun draft for me no matter what happens.

    BUT... I'm curious what would happen if I offered both those picks to the team at 2nd overall. Would any of you consider accepting that?

    I wouldn't consider accepting it. But I'd definitely offer it, if I were you, and the other GM has shown interest in said deal.

    I offered both Strome and Marner for Eichel and got laughed at by the other GM.

    Ya, next to some of the overboard offers we've see for the #2, this offer is one I'd feel comfortable making and I'd hope the owner of the pick would accept.

    Thanks guys, I think it's a longshot anyway but was primarily interested in it not being a stupid idea from my side. Cheers!

    Definitely go for it. I was able to trade Kuznetsov, the 5th prospect pick and the 8th redraft pick [redraft being all NHL UFA's or potential UFA's that weren't signed before June 20th] for the 2nd prospect pick just yesterday. So it is possible.

    Unless you have been drafting for a long time with an excellent track record AND you are really sure about the other guys you will end up with, I think you have to want Eichel instead. I doubt the other guy takes the offer but sure, go ahead and offer.

    Ultra, make the offer. The worst that could happen is, "NO." If they accept, take the deal and sleep well knowing you're getting a future superstar and franchise talent.

    Agreed. Or the counter-offer might be something that is also appealing.

    This is by no means an insulting offer but it's still not one I'd accept. Good luck though.
