Re: Josi for #2 overall pick?

Or I could trade pick #6 for another young D to replace Josi. Then the question is who do you pick 1, 2, 3 -- Bennett, Reinhart, Ekblad? (Ekblad replaces Josi and there are only so many F prospects I can have)
If you make the trade I would pick Bennett, Ekblad, and one of Reinhart or Draisaitl. I have the top 2 picks and will be taking Bennett with the #1 pic, but I am leaning towards taking Draisaitl with the #2 pick over Reinhart as I think he might have a slightly higher ceiling (but you can't go wrong either way). Since you also have the #6 pick you will likely have a chance to draft one of Ehlers and Nylander who are a little riskier but probably how the highest offensive upside of the draft eligible players.
