Probably not. Columbus needs a 1c, and Fantilli can be just that

value wise it's not horrible, but this draft is too good to give up any top 3 picks for someone not named McDavid

I doubt any team with a top 15 pick in 2023 will be willing to move it. But it's fun to think about.

Not a chance. Every one of those assets could turn into nothing far more easily than any of them turn into any kind of legitimate NHL talent. The top end picks in this draft are all being talked about as certain top line forwards at some point in their career. I tried to propose 3 picks in the range of 5-9th OA from this draft to try to move up to 2nd and people said no to that. That's how much people want the top picks this year.

I mean no you'd have to trade some kind of tangible asset not just more picks. It just can't be picks it has to be something more of a sure thing. Korchinski, Nazar, Reichel something known.
