Was thinking about this the other day.
Trading a 40 goal scorer straight up for a draft pick isn’t really my cup of tea - we’d get our guy at 2, but who knows how he turns out. Looking over NJ’s treasure trove of young talent, there’s some interesting options to supplement that pick. Getting Nolan Foote would be the dream - Hawks are and have been a soft team for years now and adding a big guy like that, who is also talented enough to project into a middle 6 is something I’d find pretty appealing.
So I wouldn’t want us giving DeBrincat straight up for a single draft pick, no matter how high (truthfully, I don’t want him traded, period), but the right add-on would make me feel a little better about it
