There's a poll launched by Anthony Desaulniers, from BPM Sports, that's creating a lot of buzz on social media right now.

See his post.

«In my mind, no GM is going to call Kent Hughes to offer such a return, but I'm still curious to know your opinion.

Would you let Xhekaj go if a general manager offers you a first-round pick?»

And to our great surprise, 51% of the voters would be in favor of trading Xhekaj for a first-round pick.

Wow. See the original post:

See some strong arguments:

"There's no point in responding to this because I see no valid reason to include him in a transaction right now. We're talking about a young player in full development and we want to do the same with his little brother, too."

- Anthony Marcotte

"A valid reason would be the depth at left D in the organization.

Matheson
Guhle
Harris
Struble
Xhekaj

Hutson and Engstrom coming up. Maybe even Norlinder and Trudeau.

Decisions will have to be made! If Xhekaj can bring in a lot..."

- Marc-Olivier Beaudoin

And you, what do you think? Personally, I would definitely keep Xhekaj!
