Description

Oilers draft Askarov if the Canes pass him on(which in reality I doubt will happen)

Talbot has played well in the playoffs, so I can see the Oilers giving him another chance, especially since they have a budget

Oilers really so not need AA IMO

EDM

Carlsson, Lucas
Strome, Dylan [RFA Rights]
2020 2nd round pick (PIT)
2020 3rd round pick (CHI)

Additional Details:

Strome joins Erie Otters teammate Connor McJesus on the Oilers, where he gets more ice time and lots of PP time. Carlsson replaces Benning and challenges Russel for the bottom pairing spot. Picks to even out value

CHI

Benning, Matthew [RFA Rights]
Nugent-Hopkins, Ryan

Additional Details:

Hawks fans have told me that they still need a 2C, and Nuge is one that will help them win sooner rather than later. Benning will help if a D prospect isn’t ready yet

I dont think Hawks fans think they need a #2C. Dach is going to be a big deal...even next year. He's developing at a very face pace.

I don't know what hawks fans you've talked to, but Dach is clearly the 2C, he's been one of their best players this postseason and appears to have a much higher ceiling than Hughes or Kakko.

It's been 1 season. Dach has shown a higher floor not a higher ceiling.

I’m not sure why oilers do that. Nuge is a huge part of the top six.

I really like RNH, and have for a long time... But I don't think it's a great idea to trade those picks, A young top 6 center in Strome, a young D in Carlsson for a 1 year rental. This would be a move we would make if we had a terrible GM who though we were closer to being contenders than we were.

If he has another monster season, I'm not sure I want to extend him at 28 years old... Where he will have like 4 years to be a top performer.
