Honestly, this seems pretty fair to me since at this time the deal appears to be for a rental. Vegas could still extend him, but they are taking on the risk of that not happening as part of the deal, so they have justification to keep the price lower.
The picks will either be a Late 1st + 2nd, or a mid-round 1st and a 3rd. That sounds like a fair deal for a high-end rental. I just think the talking heads got the Calgary faithful a bit too excited about potential returns. If the kid was only willing to extend in Tampa and that was leaked, then they were never going to get a good return from the outset.
