<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>There's not a great match between the two teams. Raty had an Anton Lundell-esque season in Liiga this year and is already in North America, so you might be seeing him in the NHL as early as next year and the Islanders shouldn't want to trade him.

The next-best prospect is a big drop off - maybe it's Simon Holmstrom? 21 years old, 12-31-43 in 68 GP for an AHL coach that notoriously can't develop forwards, so there seems to be a spark there. But I think then you upgrade the pick to the Isles first, which is a whole other bag of worms (they probably shouldn't be trading a 1st when their farm system is this barren.)</div></div>

Disagree. They're still in win now mode. At 13th overall, they're most likely in a spot where the best case scenario is maybe in 5 years the guy they pick turns out to be as good as Fiala. Personally, I'd take the bird in the hand and trade that pick for him.

On the other hand, depending on what Fiala is looking for contract wise it may not be worth it if they can't move out some contracts (Varly, Bailey, etc.) and signing Fiala hamstrings their ability to upgrade at LD2 &amp; LD3.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jnowariak</b></div><div>Make it top 2 protected. The point of trading for Fiala is to win now. That 23 pick doesn’t hit the NHL for 2 years. At which point Dorian is gone for botching the rebuild rather than trading the 23 1st. While Michkov and Bedard are generational, no team trading for Fiala is expecting to be in the hunt for them. You have to make the trade assuming that pick is a mid teens lowest, otherwise what’s the point.

We also do this with every upcoming draft year, so I’m not that concerned if the pick is 22 or 23.</div></div>

If the point is to win now then should be fine without protection then. No rule saying you assume it’s a pick in the teens. They haven’t made the playoffs in 5 years.
