Giroux will be one of the best deadline pickups available.

On no planet does a rental get you a 1st and our top prospect. Never mind the fact you also included a decent 3rd line guy with a good deal with a few years on it.

The Oilers have shown they are still far from being a complete team and mortgaging several pieces that will be a part of the solution for the next 5-10 years for 20 games of a rental is just plain dumb. I do think the Oilers should be making additions to give McDavid and Draisaitl support, but this move is very far from that. Holloway has all the makings of being the winger for McDavid for the next decade and we will likely see him in the line-up this season already.

That'd be a really bad move by Edmonton.

Edmonton won’t trade anything except picks.

All of your posts way overvalue Giroux. By retaining 50%, Philly could reasonably get a 2022 1st, decent prospect, and a roster player to balance cap. There could be a conditional 2nd depending on the playoff results of the team Giroux is traded to. In the Oilers situation that could look like 2022 1st, Lavoie, and Kyle Turris

I don't overvalue Giroux - I worked on the premise that all these teams would be serious contenders and seriously desperate for something to put them over the top. What everyone on here forgets is that teams in the past have mortgaged their future for a chance at winning the cup. If Edmonton really thought that by getting Giroux they would win the cup they wouldn't care what the Flyers asking price is.
