if they are already thinking about selling off the few good players they have...this org is such an embarrassment.

Move McDavid and accept another rebuild. All they are doing is wasting him and clearly not serious about trying to make the playoffs, they wont get major building block for building block deals mid season, if they were serious they would have done those moves now and tried to build the team right way entering thsi year.

Close but off base, moving out Larsson and RNH are smart moves. Larsson just isn't that good but would have some value and can be replaced rather easily. RNH will bring back a lot of good assets that can be used to upgrade the Oilers prospects. If they end up bottoming out this season, it will help them restock for next year and potentially they'll be a rising team instead of one that is spinning the wheels of McDavid's career. Taking a step back to take several forward is a sound plan.

There are teams in the NHL with better 4th lines then this 2nd line. Top 3 first line in the league though!

Thirty of them, in fact. This isn't the way to build a winning team.

The point is do you really think McDavid is going to want to wait another 2-3 years for those good assets to become impact pieces on the oilers. Reastically they have to show that they arent far off this year to show him a sign of a good faith to stay with the Org. That is my point of if they wanted to take 1 step back to take 2 steps foward, they should have done it this offseason, not going into the season and in season. That doesnt help McDavid, waste another season bc you didnt want to do your soft rebuild but wait 4 months for no good reason

And its not my opinion, its what even what the most credible of hockey writers and insiders are saying about the Oilers...example when Friedman mentioned on his 31 throughts podcast that when Oilers were interviewing candidates, many said it would take 2 seasons to fix the roster, and bob nicholson wasnt interested in anyone who had a 2 year plan bc they cant afford that...which means cant afford to let McDavid spin his tires for 2 seasons
