#1 pick + pick 10 for RNH

But! Theres a draft lotto so #1 isn't guaranteed.
--------------
10. Draft Lotto
All teams that played in the loser playoffs the previous season take part in the Draft Lotto. The winner of the Loser Playoffs will receive 1 extra chance in the Draft Lotto. No team can move up more than 2 spots (eg. 4th place up to 2nd place max) in the draft. All teams will have their names thrown in a hat and only one draw will be made to decide the winner of the Draft Lotto order. All other picks will be based on how the other teams seeded going into the draft.
Team with the worst regular season record receives the 1st position with 6 chances which is based on a vote done that gives worst team 50% chance to win the Draft Lotto. Team with the 2nd worst regular season record receives 3 chances to win the Draft Lotto. Team with the 3rd worst regular season record receives 2 chances to win the Draft Lotto. Team with the 4th worst regular season record receives 1 chance to win the Draft Lotto.
-----------

So the 7th place team won the loser playoffs and earned an extra chance so he can only move up to 2nd overall. So the way I see it is if I take this trade I get my 6 chances to get number one plus his 2 chances to not be passed down to 2nd overall.

8 chances to get 1st overall to 5 chances to move down to 2nd overall.

Should I take this trade? I am in rebuild mode. So worst case is I lose out on the Oilers boys and take Huberdeu. Best case is I get #1 and take Yakupov and hope to god Huberdeu falls to 10th?

As it stands right now my 1st pick is pick #15 in the 2nd round.

I'm torn.
I'd consider moving RNH only if I was reassured that the #1 was the FIRST overall pick. i.e Yakupov. (+ the 10th overall pick). I would feel too uneasy moving RNH now and HOPE to get that 1st overall pick. Too risky IMO. Wait until after the draft to see who the other GM lands with his picks.

Sounds like he's willing to trade for some certainty in RNH while trading away some risk. I'd stand pat.

Despite your league stats heavy on goals (which I think Yaks will dominate in), you are not assured of landing him. The Nuge is no slouch either.
