Easy negotiations, thanks jp

Good trade for both teams.

Surprised by this move for Vancouver. One can make the argument the 20th selection will garner a player near the equivalency of the 5th selection in this draft. Clearly Vancouver has identified a specific player they desire. All that remains to be seen if the 20th selection will be worth the difference.

Quote:Originally posted by 701@Jul 5 2014, 01:38 PMI concur, by no means am I chastising Vancouver; they clearly have identified a specific member, they believe will trump the value of both selections they surrendered. I personally value depth over star-power, so I presuppose it stems from a differentiation in draft philosophy.

I'm just doing this for the sake of debating now :lol:

In this draft 20th could become better than 5th. So much boom or bust potential here.

I wasn't surprised, but acknowledged the same thought process.

Love this trade :ph34r:

VAN must feel they wont get their guy at #5 so they move up to #3 for a much better opportunity. It is a very deep draft however so it'll be interesting how this deal works out when the top 20 selections are complete.
- Mac - 07-05-2014
The top 12 selections look damn good, hard to tell where it really starts to drop off.
- Andy - 07-05-2014
This makes things very interesting as it seems both teams already have players in mind. I'd love to see each teams draft boards post draft
