GB5 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I know Chiarelli likes to trade off players drafted high in the draft for veterans but I really do not think he would actually do this.......or maybe he would? I think this is bunk but even so,if I were Edmonton I would run Chiarelli out of town if he did this trade before he ends up trading McDavid for Malkin or something silly like that.

The guy proved he’s the real deal, especially during the playoffs, where he was (arguably) better than McDavid. I hate the Oilers, and would love they did something this stupid. Arguable, maybe. Large part of his playoff success was the fact half of the other teams' players were shadowing McDavid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 10 hours ago, qwijibo said: How exactly is Paccioretty overrated? How many players in the league have put up a minimum of 30 goals a season going back to the year before the lockout? The guy is an elite goal scorer. I agree with you here - but whether Pacioretty is over-rated or not. I think Edmonton would be foolish to deal a player like Draisaitl with Pacioretty as the principle. First - as you point out, Paciorettyscored 30 goals the past 5 full seasons (and was 'on pace' in the lockout year) - but he's now 29, so perhaps half or more of those years are behind him - and he has only a year of term remaining after this season. I don't think a mid round 1st is worth the difference. If you're moving Draisatl, you absolutely have to get back a comparable, younger player than Max Pacioretty. If Edmonton made that deal, their fanbase would justifiably be livid. I don't buy a vowel in this rumour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3aL Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Wow that would be a big win for Montreal Drouin n Draisaitl down the middle not bad at all.. Younger and a better player in a more impactful position and patches is a streaky player who hasn't done much in the playoff.. Would be ridiculous to do this for Edmonton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be ridiculous to do this for Edmonton I'm not saying this is a trade that works. Generally quality vs quantity trades are bs. But to be fair. Montreal would be giving up good value here. Paccioretty is an elite goal scorer. Not many players have put up more goals , more consistently, than he has going back to the lockout. Poehling is looking like a strong prospect in his draft +1 season. And they add a first on top. Again. Not suppporting the deal. I don't think it's a fit for Edmonton at all. But it's not like it would be highway robbery either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon is one of the best young players on the planet. Coilers would be dumb to give him up for so little Your right except the Oil hasn't really been a smart team over the last 15 years or so have they?
