Description

Okay, not realistic. I'm just riffing off the black mood that suddenly exists in Oilersville - up until Saturday noon Oilers fans were picking 31st overall in the draft, since then they're all picking 1st. Surely THIS team can make the playoffs?!

The Oilers will protect 7-3-1 in the Seattle draft, as follows:

McDavid
Draisaitl
Hall
Nugent-Hopkins
Faksa
Puljujarvi
Yamamoto
*
Nurse
Klefbom
Bear
*
Georgiev

Exposed will be Kassian, Archibald and Benson for forwards, Jones and Lagesson on D and Koskinen, plus any UFA player not listed. Subject to change based on further trades and 2020-21 performance.

(if this is even possible) Taylor Hall said he wanted his next team to be his home and really build a legacy there. I think to do that he's gotta return to Edmonton, where he started. I'd switch Faksa and Jumbo but nice team btw

I’m the only MTL fan who would take Chiasson for a 2021 5th, but now you’re pushing your luck with a 2020 3rd round pick lol

I think Rangers would rather have a draft pick or two in a deal for Georgiev than a guy who's a little unpredictable. I don't hate it but its just a bit risky knowing that even though they play different positions, Georgiev is more consistent than Athanasiou. I think Rangers pick/prospect pool is deep enough for them to take a stab at a guy like AA though. Im sure fellow NYR fans on here probably wouldn't like this at all

OK, I'll do that - just to make the improbable possible.
