On the Vancouver rumors and trading the second overall pick

In case you missed it, social media was buzzing this weekend when Jason Botchford at The Athletic ran an article about what it would take for Vancouver to trade up to the top two picks. This was very much a hypothetical, but it did note that Vancouver would certainly explore all possibilities to move up, and they’ve reached out to both the Devils and the Rangers to see what it would take (the article states it would take an Eric Lindros package).

The number one pick has only been traded ten times in history.
