Description
In 1984 HABS offered the Penguins all their picks in 1984 for Penguins no.1 to draft Mario Lemieux. Penguins requested all the picks in 1984 & 1985 Habs 1st rd. HABS declined and the rest is History.
If tha HABS made a similar offer to Columbus after the lottery for the no. 1 pick does it happen

1. Habs wouldn't offer it
2. Columbus wouldn't accept it

No. Draft picks aren't enough to get Bedard unless it's something ridiculous like 2nd, 3rd and 4th OA in this draft.

Considering how the next decade-plus went for PIT, I'm not sure using Lemieux as a parallel to Bedard is a good illustration of why CBJ should trade him away.

No team is trading the Bedard pick. Even Milbury wouldn't trade that pick.

In another year, where there's room for debate over the consensus top pick, there might be room for discussion.

In a Crosby, McDavid, or Bedard draft, there's no trade possibility. The offer would need to be ridiculous (think next 5 1st rounders) and even then it's not likely depending on pick projections, marketing, team needs, etc.

Bedard will sell tickets and make any team relevant (provided he meets expectations of course) and a competent GM should be able to build a competent team around him to win multiple cups.
There are people who still forget what conference Columbus plays in, but nobody will forget what conference Bedard is playing in.
