Rick Blight Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 1 minute ago, Alflives said: Are you saying if a team has RNH as one of their better players, they are likely to be a bottom team? Or are you saying RNH is playing good hockey, and the team’s woes are not because of his role/ icetime? Alf’s not quite getting this one. I am saying that RNH is a very good hockey player and Edmonton's problems are in no way related to his performance. You do know he is their leading goal scorer, right? More that McDavid and Draisaitl.....and that is without the same PP time and the inflated numbers Draisaitl gets playing with McDavid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then maybe, instead of Arizona getting RNH, we should? Tanev is one heck of a defensive dman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not there yet, nor do we have enough prospects in any one area that we can afford to lose a few right now. My humble opinion right now tho.

Edmonton is goal starved similar to us so I doubt they would trade their leading goal scorer for a non-offensive d-man. Edmonton is really weak on the wings and I think they would be looking for either an offensive d-man or a higher scoring winger. I just don't think there is a very good fit between the two teams.

Pears Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Who would do Baertschi, Juolevi, and our 1st this year (top 5 protected)? Steep price, but it’s a fair deal for both teams imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can replace Baertschi, and if we get 1st we replace Juolevi with a generational defenseman. OEL is a top 10 defenseman in the NHL and you gotta pay up for those, and we need someone like him.

Edmonton would be crazy to make a deal like that so it will probably happen before the night is out. EDM could probably say if its a top 5 this year it turns into an unprotected 2019 + Puljujarvi + Nurse. Might save this season for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Sven, Juolevi and a 2nd.. Coyotes would get a better offer, but as a Canuck, I'd be up to the 11th hr in contemplation. Don't wanna lose 3 years of a top 2 ELC defender.

For one season? Arizona is not competitive enough and he wants to win. It's the same issue with the Canucks - still too many seasons away from being legit contenders. He'll be paid in free agency and will have a good choice of competitive teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I want OEL on this team. I do. But only way that should happen is free agency. We don't have the assets to spare for trade. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The downside for Arizona taking a 2019 pick is that it is going to push their rebuild out another year and I really feel they want the rebuild to be over. I mean, how many years can you be rebuilding and sell that to your 100's of fans?Edmonton is going to be in cap hell next year and they would still need to shed some salary to afford Ekman-Larsson I think.
