Sutter for a 1st (and some cap back) sounds promising. Although I don't know if JB wants to move Sutter right now.

 

Sutter would be Hitch's dream, and frees up Draisaitl to play wing with McDavid. It would have a pretty significant ripple effect on their team. We could definitely use an extra first in our draft next year.

This is interesting. I think I'd ask for more like 1st and Benson/Puljujarvi/Yamamoto especially if we are retaining cap as well. If they agree to Puljujarvi or Yamamoto, then I'd be willing to add someone like Lind going back the other way.

Prospects worth targeting imo:

 

Ethan Bear

Tyler Benson

Yamamoto

Skinner

 

Any trade with the coilers should include one of these or a 1st round pick. Otherwise, tell them to go away

Goldobin for Benson straight up if they want a quick "cheap" fix attempt. Although if I were in their shoes, I don't see why they wouldn't just call up Benson and give him a shot instead, but it is the Oilers.

Benson is an absolute beauty. I’d also consider Baer for benson + cap dump (reider maybe) + 2nd

I just can't see the Canucks being apart of these discussions.

 

I think if they do anything it will be a minor trade to bring in a bottom six forward, preferably a center. From a Canucks perspective Markus Granlund makes a lot of sense but don't think that's what Edmonton are looking for. 

 

Andreas Athanasiou from Detroit would look great on the Oilers. Play up and down the line-up and a really nice experiment to put next to McDavid. Not sure how willing Detroit would be to let him go. Think the price would be substantial but if they are all in then, well, go get him you know. 1st + Ethan Bear

 

Thomas Vanek as a cheaper option? 

 

In real Chia fashion? Josh Ho-Sang.

Sutter, Goldy, and Tanev for Oilers' 1st + Puljujarvi.

 

This move would indicate that we are giving up on the season, which sucks but if Oilers also miss the playoffs, we get 2 lottery tickets for 2019. Who knows? Knowing the Oilers' luck, their pick may end up being a top 2 pick?

 

With the cap cleared, we can go after EK. Make him the highest player in the NHL: offer 90M over 7 years.

It's chia. We can probably get Benson for Reid Boucher. Lol :lol:

 

Boucher is an all star after all.

Image result for taylor hallHe'

4.0 on ice goals against per 60 = awful.

 

2nd worst on the Devils, to an aging matchup forward like Brian Boyle.

 

He'd fit right in back in Edmonton.  A guy that is vacant without the puck, back into a tire fire.

5-4 losses are exciting an all, and Hall shows up in a couple highlights (at both ends of the ice) - but they're still losses.

Sutter & Goldobin 3rd & 4th 

for

Spooner, Reider & 1st 

 

Reider and Spooner have at best no value but more realistically have negative value and are in this trade for cap reasons only. As each team takes on just over 5 million in the deal.  Edmonton would love to shed both these players plus acquire Sutter and Goldy so the price is their 1'st for a 3rd. 

 

Reider will not be a cap issue beyond this season.  Spooner would cost 3.1 cap space next year but this is still less than Sutter at 4.375M.

 

Spooner takes goldy's spot.  Gauedette takes Sutter's.  Reider can be waived.  Add a first round pick from a likely non playoff team!  Also we have 3 6th round picks to still have 8 picks total in the draft.

I'm not sure EDM trades one of their top offensive guys (Draisaitl, RNH, etc) for Sutter+...

 

If anything, I think they would offer one of their prospects (and a pick?) for immediate help. That could be Goldobin and Sutter for Puljujarvi? or maybe Goldobin for Benson or Caggiula? I'd love to get Caggiula and Boeser on a line, just like the good old days at North Dakota.

 

Caggiula - Pettersson - Boeser

Big over payment. Canucks are better off without it.

All the jokesters are forgetting Barzal too  lol

a much worse deal than the 'jokes' in this thread thus far.

 

add a 2nd (that the NYI traded up to take Beauvillier), and get a D the Coil exposed in the expansion draft lol.

 

That's far worse than the Larsson deal.
