DET Trade Block: 2012 Draft Picks

[Shoalzie]

I'm not interested in making any player moves prior the start of NHL free agency. My only goal this month is to maybe shed a few draft picks for this year. I should be at 50 contracts for sure so that leaves me room for 24 prospects. I'm sitting at 12 current prospects with 16 draft picks for this year plus a waiver pick. I'm not planning on doing anything with the waiver pick until we get closer to the waiver draft. I'd like to get down to 12 or fewer picks.

My current draft picks (pick position may vary based penalties to teams or unclaimed picks):

3rd Round
VAN -- 68th Overall
LA -- 88th Overall

5th Round
DAL -- 121st Overall
WPG -- 122nd Overall
DET -- 124th Overall
NYI -- 134th Overrall
NSH -- 135th Overall
TOR -- 144th Overall
LA -- 148th Overall

6th Round
DAL -- 151st Overall
NJ -- 170th Overall
TOR -- 174th Overall
OTT -- 177th Overall

7th Round
DET -- 184th Overall
MON -- 191st Overall
TOR -- 204th Overall

I threw out a few similar packages a while back...

• I'd be interested in shipping the Dallas, Winnipeg and Detroit 5th Round picks (3 of first 4 picks in that round) in exchange for a late 2013 3rd Round pick or an early 2013 4th Round pick.
• The back-to-back Islanders and Nashville 5ths are available for a late 2013 4th Round pick or an early 2013 5th Round pick.
• Any two of my 6th Round picks together are available for a 2013 5th Round Pick.
• I'd like to use my 3rd Round picks but if anyone is interested in both, I'd like a mid-to-late 2013 2nd Round Pick in return.
• I'll also do a simple one-for-one swap of any 2012 pick for 2013 pick of a similar spot in the draft but preferrably not involving either of my 3rd Round picks.
• Another option is doing a one-for-one swap of a 2014 pick when those become available after this draft. I'll select the prospect you'd like at a certain pick and ship it to you when 2014 picks can be exchanged.

maybe I missed it, but the roster limits for next season will for sure be 74 (50+24) ... ?

Yeah, I asked for clarification a couple months back...50/74 for next year.

Thanks Scott. Was going to make an offer but with my current picks this puts me at the limit myself.

Any interest in parent, Drewiskie and Bouchard as a package for a pick or two?

Not all the appealing...only interested in moving picks for picks right now. Like I said, I'm not doing any roster moves until later.

[Shoalzie]

Another package I'll put out there...

LA's 3rd + Dallas' 5th + Winnipeg's 5th (first two picks of the 5th)

for

Two early 4th Round picks in either 2012 or 2013 (any combination of years)


I would like to use the upcoming Vancouver 3rd when it comes up but I can be convinced otherwise...I'm up in 10 picks.

I made one trade to move up and if anyone is interested in trading down a few spots, I'll offer the LA 3rd + a 5th for your pick.
