Lundell is good and all, but his lack of offensive upside is a bit concerning. And I'm a big fan of Finnish prospects. I say try getting Hertl, or just get Holtz just 'cause.

Will you be able to get Cirelli or Hertl for that pick though? Somehow I think you're going to have to add a significant piece... if you can, by all means make the trade.

8th plus Mittlestad/Thompson?

no we would have to add to it for sure, mittelstadt or thompson would be the ones to go

Cirelli would be the best target. the 8th OA and a prospect or two like TT and Borgen/Pilut. Other than Cirelli, I wouldn't mind Strome, Hertl, Henrique, Johansen, Domi etc. If we don't get Cirelli, Domi or Strome are the best options but both NYR and MON would add to get our pick

If Marco Rossi is available I would draft him. Other wise trade the pick. Buffalo is in a bad way.

Marco Rossi or trade for Cirelli, maybe Domi but not sure.
