the #10 pick overall in (formerly NYR) 2014 and WPG 2015 2nd

Winnipeg confirms
the close NHL talent will be about the right timing for my rebuild and fit the age group i have targeted.
-Gormley, while not a tremendously offensive guy will fit nicely, Pho will have to do something with its blue line, hopefully gormley will benefit.
-Boucher has proven he can play and NJ doesnt have a stable of offensive talent in the minors and is aging by the day.
-Binnington is a prospect that adds to a decent young group of prospect goaltenders, all of which are not real close but in a few years should be ready.
-2nd vancouver, hopefully a mid round pick next year? sorry vancouver!
-10th 2014 and a very high to be 2nd in 2015 are difficult to move but i feel is a decent return for the talent pool im receiving.
