Free Cap Space Help Edmonton

This trade makes a lot of sense Money wise for Edmonton. They get rid of 6M that Mcdavid will need in the next year. And they actually add a Veteran.

While i think the value is fair, and that it makes sense financially, I'm pretty sure that if Edmonton gives up a key piece like RNH there going to want a D-man coming back or at least a defensive prospect. EDM would probably want Juulsen instead of Hudon, and that's where MTL says no.

Switch Hudon to Noah Juulsen and i think Oilers say yes

The idea is still to win, and Hudon and 30th pick is virtually meaningless to a team that wants to win (or least make the playoffs) By the same logic....the Oilers should trade a cap hit and two non NHLers for Price, so Montreal will have cap space in couple years to sign some players.

Ya, I think that the Oilers would want Sergachev, 1st and maybe Scherbak as a return. RNH doesn't do it for me honestly. I would rather have Landeskog.
