Benning will get a good one at #10. But okay, here's my deal: to VAN: Lucic and the #8 to EDM - #10 (Canucks will take over Lucic's contract, as a huge favour lol) I'd rather swap picks with LA and take Kovalchuk off their hands if we are taking on a crappy contract 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPA Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Not saying I would do this but... Markstrom for #8 (Something like the Schneider deal EDM should have traded for). Expanding on that... Markstrom + Tanev for #8, Puljujarvi (or better prospect/player), Koskinen (cuz Edmonton stupidly gave him too much $$). Largely dependant on JB comfortable with Demko combo in net.

We would definitely need to add though. I could see Sutter plus 10OA to move up to 8OA. To get 8OA without including 10OA would cost Sutter plus a lot more, I think. Sutter plus Jake plus our 2020 second? Would that be enough? Jake would go some of the way to replacing what they thought they were getting in Jesse. Sutter, Jake and 2020 2nd.... I'd be fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol well Edmonton needs a scoring winger on a decent contract - I don't see us having anything to entice them to give up their pick unfortunately - other than taking on Lucic and no way in hell do i want that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c00kies Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Well, we don't have Cory Schneider anymore, but Demko might work I don't think what we deal for #8 will be worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeserker Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Edmonton, swap us 8 for 10 and we'll make your pick for you. Win Win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 It's too late baby(as Carole King sang)..OTT will be all over this. Something like: OTT: Tierney, Ceci, Balcers, OTT 2nd(32 OA pick) EDM: 1st r, Puljujarvi, Lucic (maybe they upgrade Tierney to Pageau?) This enables EDM to deal RNH separately, to recoup a 1st.

I got this discussion going to see if there was ANY option other than doing that to pry loose that pick. Doesn't seem to be the case with us in all likelihood. I do see Sutter as a good fit for them tho. Maybe they'd be willing to part with Even Bouchard if we retained salary on Sutter. I could see another team taking that on, maybe NJ or Ottawa?

Actually thinking about it maybe we take Kris Russell and their 8th Overall pick - Oilers need cap relief and there has been talk about moving him for cap relief- not sure who we offer back to them - Russell is an ok defender he just can't play top 2 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily a deal breaker tho. They don't really need to replace Russel on the right side, so maybe Jake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Jake would definitely be attractive to them I think - decent cap hit at least. Worse case give Nicholson someone other than Tobia Reider to blame if they miss the playoffs again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting the 8 pick guarantees you one of them, or Dach, Cozens, Turcotte or Zegras. I think you move up a whole tier by moving 2 spots. I think I'd offer: Tanev and #10 for #8 and #38 My hope would then to package #38 and #40 to the Kings or Ducks to get the #25 or #26 pick (Depending on where the Sharks or Leafs Finish) to get whoever falls from Newhook, Kalyiev,Seider, Suzuki, Caufield, Vlasic or Heinola, Lavoie, Harley, Knight. I actually really like the first part of this move ( hi-lifted above ) So that is 8th OA 38th OA 40th OA So then What about ……..40th OA + DiPietro......or......40th OA + 2020 2nd...….or ……...40th OA + Hutton...…..or...…..40th OA + Baertschi...…..or 40th OA + Brisebois for the 25th OA ? Keep in mind, you are only moving up 15 or 16 spots...…...……. 8th OA 25th OA 38th OA Looks pretty nice...……………….Great job BC Nate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the grinder Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 lol Edmonton isn't gonna trade the pick they need the cheap entry level contract they are going to go for the best ready nhl player available in the draft and rush him in . besides that why do we want to help Edmonton ? 5 number 1 draft picks and they still suck lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 The chances of the OIlers picking an actual NHLer at 8 are pretty damn low. Puljujarvi is looking like a bust, Yamamoto is a midget, and Bouchard is such a liability in his own zone he'd be lucky to make a decent AHL team as a Black Ace. I'd rather let the Oilers take the only bust out of a solid draft class then do their job for them by providing them with useful hockey players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the most likely scenario I've seen so far today. They could replace Petrovic with Tanev, a nice upgrade there. If we retained 1/2 on Tanev i think this is a done deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
