Ya know, I have Schultz in a points-only keeper and wouldn't move him for Phaneuf.

I know its all hype right now, but kid's situation is unreal heading forward.

As for Phaneuf - seriously, he's a 40-45pt blueliner now and that's with EVERY opportunity in the world in TO.

I'm not dying to keep a 45pt guy...but I'll keep a kid who has a chance to be a complete offensive stud. Particularly if these guys are gonna be your last keeper. Schultz may not pan out, but I'm willing to keep him and see if he does.

As for the pick upgrade - I'm in the group that thinks smart drafting can happen anytime in a draft. 3rd for 8th sounds great, but that's not a deal-maker for me.
