His reasoning is because he'd like to have the absolute best team possible, and giving up McDavid is killing him. That way he gets to keep Pavelski/McDavid/Quick/Lindqvist, do the draft, then trade McDavid and have a great roster.
I'm really trying to make him do the trade pre-draft so that I can at least keep Marchand, et al. -- any way I can incentivize this to him?
On the surface, you're already over paying for McDavid but because you have excellent depth and it's a limited keeper you can afford to do this. If you do this deal post draft, you've lost most of your "currency" and it becomes a huge overpayment.
