activestick Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I think they should seriously consider it. It's not often that a D'Man is the projected #1 pick. They should take a serious run at him. D'Men picked high in the draft typically turn out to be the real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraycraven Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Jones should be and will most likely be a stud for years to come... we would have to sell of the youth to even consider getting the #1 overall pick. Schenn+Cooter+ our # 1... not happenig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertmega Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 @activestickNot worth it. The amount of roster players involved for one player that isn't even NHL ready, would probably seal Paul Holmgren's fate as the GM. Colorado will not give up that pick for free and as MC mentioned, it would probably start with Schenn, a 1st and ++. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilsFanDrew Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It's a pipe dream to get to 1. I could see them maybe trying to move up inside the top 10 by trading their first and second round picks to a team that is targeting a player that could be selected at #11 where the Flyers might want someone that would go before 11.

Claude Monet Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 even if Homer did trade up to #1 we all know he wouldn't take a Dman anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kid is a perfrect fit in Colorado and even if we were willing to sell the farm to get him, there are other teams that would offer more. I've already heard rumblings from a Buffalo friend that the Sabres may take a shot at him buy offering up Ryan Miller, this years first (8th overall) and next years first and possibly another player. I dont want any part of that bidding war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Men picked high in the draft typically turn out to be the real deal. Would Eric Johnson be worth trading up for? How about Jack Johnson? Cam Barker? Zack Bogosian? Eric Gudbranson? Hedmans a good player but hardly great. Thomas Hickey? Is Luke Schenn worthy of trading up top 5 for? Pitkanen? Those are all top 5 picks over the last 11 years. I wouldn't sell the farm for any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't sell the farm for any of them.Bogosian? Yes. Hickey, Hedman and Murray from last year? Who knows? Give them time. All young. Bogosian is definately worth moving up for. I watch most Jet games here in Winnipeg and this guy is going to be great. He's an RFA this year. No way the Jets let him walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
