He was on TSN1050 earlier and had tons of interesting information surrounding Philly.
- Philly offered Nashville Meszaros, Read, 1st, 2nd, 3rd for Weber.
- Nashville countered with Schenn+Couturier++
- Philly still believes they're in on Doan.
- Philly also believed they could have gotten Nash and Weber.

that offer from Philly is quite terrible if true. No doubt why they didn't accept that.
All things being equal I'd agree with you, but given the fact that Weber got offer sheeted, and depending on whether or not they can afford him (and if they can we're not having this conversation), they may be stuck with just four picks. If the Preds don't match and end up with say Meszaros and two or three firsts, is that really that much worse than Meszaros/Read/1st/2nd/3rd? The RFA situation changes this a lot, and now if there's a deal to be made Holmgren has all of the leverage here.
