    Only if you can then cycle that pick into getting you some help in net. It seems to me that your team should be pretty competitive now so removing a piece like Williams is a step backward. You need to follow that with a step forward for it to be worth your while.

    I don't see #10 overall being worth it. You've got a nice looking farm, and your team seems like it's pretty solid for a 14-teamer right now.
    I agree with metaldude. Goaltending seems to be the thing that you could use the most help with. If safer goaltending options aren't available, Id' be looking to nab a few gambles and hope 1-2 of them pay off.

    Not a move I would make. You can afford Williams but he is worth more than a 10th overall. Not a very good draft year so I would hold off and use him for trade bait later.

    Like the others said, seems as though your team is pretty solid. At some point you should focus on the here and now as opposed to the future. Unless the 10th overall pick will net you an asset that you could put right onto your roster, I would pass.

    This is definitely a trade that makes you worse.. You need to package players up and get better, not worse.. Trade guys like Brunner for draft picks, but only if you can draft someone you want with that pick.. 10th overall in a weak draft isn't very valuable..

    Not liking moving Williams in this scenerio, agree with above comments - you need to improve your goalie depth.
    Make a pitch for Brian Elliott!

    Actually traded Lehtonen for Rattie + Allen + 2015 1st. Was getting great value for him and have Niemi/Stalock combo to back that move.

    Even if Niemi isn't in SJ next season still have Stalock, who proved more than capable of competing. Plus with Elliott signing I see Allen in a 1A/1B type situation, with Allen winning starting job by 2015/16 season. I am making a move on Elliott tho to have another 1/2 combo. Good advice btw.

    That trade was a couple weeks ago FYI
