So with LeBrun saying Buffalo hopes to get a 1st for Miller today, I decided to make a list of just how many 1sts people are expecting to be exchanged at the deadline.
For reference a total of 3 1st round picks were exchanged at last years deadline and, with a better draft this year, the picks are more valuable to start with.
Now keep in mind these are only rentals, with no goalies, and not longer term options that might be available from teams like the Canadiens. As a community, do we really believe 12 1st round picks (and thats assuming I'm not forgetting anyone, so its probably 2 or 3 higher) are about to be exchanged from one of the stronger drafts in recent history?
