A roster without having LE penciled in before a guy like MacEwen or even as an extra forward is a dream roster to me lol

Don't be surprised to see Hoglander crack the lineup by playoffs either in a top 6 role.  He's NHL ready now imo.

its not like he demanded a trade to Vancouver or Boston, they can still not trade him right?

What @King Heffy said. Eriksson makes sense for them because his cap hit is $6M, but the momey they would have to pay is significantly less. Anymore than Eriksson warrants some cap retention on OEL at this point :bigblush:

Also OEL declined the 2nd request from management where they asked if he’d give more teams. To top it off OEL’s agent said once Friday hits they rescind the willingness to get traded and they won’t waive to go anywhere for the year. So Thursday is the day Arizona will probably pick which offer they like more Vancouver or Boston.

Jim holds all of the cards here.  He doesn't need to make this trade but it would be nice.  He absolutely needs to lose LE's contract but let's be honest here.  He really can't take on a massive contract like OEL's while giving away the farm with our youth as well.  JB was burned with LE and OEL right now could be a similar gamble.  If this isn't a somewhat one-sided trade in JB's favour, then I will be disappointed.
