well what if Laf ends up sucking?
Anderson is easy to predict what he brings. He is MASSIVE, skates very quick, gets to the net, can score goals. His hockey IQ isn't great, so it severely decrease his potential. He is ultimately a battering ram.
1st round picks are never bad to collect. You keep them or trade them for other pieces you need.
Roy is a solid offensive prospect. He could turn out, or he doesn't.
Any time you trade for picks and prospects, there is always the "what if they don't pan out". And fair enough. that's why teams like to stock up on ALOT of them, because eventually some pan out.
This trade offer is very reasonable. But I understanding wanting to stick with your former 1st overall pick.
