Is McKenna really going 1OA?

I think it's interesting how the talk has pretty much turned consensus on this matter to the point that no one is even really questioning it anymore. For that reason, and because I think Toronto has an infinite capacity to eff things up, I am willing this into existence. I mean stranger things have happened in the draft.

If Toronto did somehow pass on McKenna and took Stenberg 1OA, I don't think there is any way that Vancouver skips the hometown boy. I know, the likelihood of this is low, but I think it is infinitely lower that both Toronto and Vancouver pass on McKenna.

In light of that, if Stenberg goes 1OA, who wouldn't be opposed to trading up with San Jose to get McKenna? Keep in mind, two of the teams involved are competing with us for two WC spots, and assuming this rebuild works we are likely eventually going to see one or both of them in the playoffs down the road and for those reasons alone I would rather they continue to flail aimlessly in the lower middle of the standings as we leapfrog them.

What about 4OA, a 2nd, 3rd and Korch to San Jose for 2OA? I am so confident in McKenna panning out I would make it 4OA, and Vlasic straight up. Fight me.

Okay I just said that last part only to be provocative but out of all of our d-men I think he is the best combination of current value and lack of long term future here. I believe he has reached his ceiling (and even regressed this past season), he is not physical enough and I think there's a chance that he's not a top 4 guy in the long term and I don't see how he accepts that smaller role. Korch is more likely but I'm not sure San Jose would go for it unless we shower them with picks (which I'm also not really opposed to.)
