From beat writer Joe Smith: If you're a Lightning fan, don't get too attached to the pick.

Yzerman has traded three of the seven players he has drafted in the first round since becoming GM in 2010, including two-top 10 selections. The latest was wing Jonathan Drouin, the third overall pick in 2013, who was sent to Montreal in a blockbuster deal last week. Forward Brett Connolly (sixth, 2010) and defenseman Anthony DeAngelo (19th, 2014) are the others who were shipped away.

Center Brett Howden (2016), defenseman Slater Koekkoek (2012), goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy (2012) and center Vladislav Namestnikov (2011) remain from Yzerman's prized picks.
