Monty Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Edmonton picks up the phone and calls Chevy, offering him the 4th overall straight up for Trouba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMillerTime Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The CBJ pick could be in 2018. I don't Alex Edler would waive to a team who is cold and hasn't made the playoffs for a decade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toews Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The Oilers wouldn't have interest in Edler. They would want Tanev, his age suits their core and they need a RHD instead of a LHD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Agree, Toews. I think Tanev's play on the world stage just upped his value. Do you think it's unrealistic to think Tanev plus the 2nd from Columbus could get us 4th overall, maybe if we were to add in a later pick? (Do we still have our 3rd rounder?) Maybe couldn't get us the third overall, but there is a noticeable dropoff after the "big three". I think if we did this it would be to hedge our draft by assuming at least one of these two guys will go on to be a star in the league, and it bolsters our weak LW position.

YEGCanuck Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Please stop with proposals to trade with the Oil. Why would you think to deal with a team within our own division especially an organization that has missed the playoffs for the last decade.

KKnight Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Trade Tanev?? And then we will be looking for another rhd top 4 d-man for another 3-4 years. Edler is max going to get us a mid first and a couple picks. Not the 4th overall pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Everyone has Hutton penciled in with Gudbranson, but I wouldn't be surprised (and pretty stoked actually) to see Edler/Gudbranson pair up. That would be a formidable pairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraken70 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Edler would be an asset I would like to use to explore options but I don't think it's with Edmonton. They need a veteran d man, no doubt; but Edler may be a little long in the tooth for their liking. If he was 25 or 26, they may take it seriously. Let me ask this. Would you trade our fifth for a Taylor Hall? He would fit nicely now and he's locked up for three more years. We'd also be able to meet his contractual demands when he gets close to UFA due to the Sedin's big contract ending. I think he would be a nice fit with Bo and Baer thus creating a new #1 line and re-signing Hennrik and Danial to more team friendly, shorter term contracts. Edler's departure opens up a spot for Hammer, who I like a lot more on our blue line. He more dependable in all zones and makes few mistakes or bad decisions. Baertschi Horvat Hall Sedin Sedin Hansen Gaunce Sutter Rodin Higgins Granlund Burrows Dorsett Hutton Tanev Hamhuis Sbisa Tryamkin Gudbranson Markstrom Miller On paper, it looks like a line up with real potential. I know it's not going to happen but it's fun to imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but having the 4th and 5th pick overall gives them a lot of power and options at the draft. They need a top line d man to quarterback a powerplay. Keeping one of the picks and dealing the other would put them in a great position moving forward. Dropping Hall's contract would open the door for a high profile d man.

And there is ZERO chance JB has any interest in the Oiler's 'group of four'. If there is a player to target it's Draisatl. However, will Dubois be a better player - YES. so there is really no reason to trade for Edmonton players. Now Tanev for the fourth pick? That I would entertain.

You wouldn't take Hall for a fifth but think Tanev would get us the fourth? lol. You are right about one thing. You would give them a lot of entertaining laughter at that offer.

Why does the team always finish close to last? Could it be because they are OVER PAID for what they contribute? Could it be they are ONLY one way players, who are selfish?

Or the Panthers want nothing to do with the Oiler four? If the Oilers weren't interested in Gudbrandon I would be shocked. Don't you think he's exactly what they need?
