And usually it happens in a draft where there is a lot of variance, like a draft like this, where there isn't the strong consensus industry-wide about who the third best prospect is.

Well, that's probably the most likely outcome.

And for those that are confused, we're not saying to trade out of the third overall pick and not get a... Big scenario was, let's say you go from three to seven.

So you have the seventh overall pick.

You're not trading out of this year's draft, but you're also getting a pick for next year's draft.

So you would have two first round picks next year.

So just to clarify for those of you... A trade down candidate.

Yeah, and we're not saying trade out of the pick.

No.

The idea is, do you get enough value to move down a few spots to get that?

And this just comes down to in terms of the...

the ideal outcomes as far as how this draft may fall for you.

And like we just mentioned, the ideal outcome is one of Stenberg or McKenna are available at three.

And if one of those guys is there, then you run up to the podium, you take them.

Honestly, like short of something ridiculous, I'm saying no to everything.

Yeah, that's why we say the tier one is like one of those two guys.

And if those guys aren't there, I understand though a lot of people are like, man, I get nervous talking about all this.

Like what if the Canucks pass on a guy at three and then that player ends up being a stud and now we're sitting there at number five or six with a player that's not as good.

But that's the risk you take in any of these situations.

But I think the reason that's a conversation this year is because there isn't strong consensus on who the third best prospect is.
