You don't often see someone offer up a trade where their favourite team gets the worse deal. While I don't hate your trade, RNH = Skinner and Klefbom is about equal to Faulk. The rest if just filler that you don't need to add really. This trade actually doesn't fix any problems for Edmonton. It fills a top 6 winger hole the Oilers have but creates a huge hole at centre and also a bottoms 6 winger hole. The change on the back end is a wash.
Edmonton needs to admit that beyond McDavid and Draisaitl they aren't skilled enough, or fast enough. They need to replace anyone who isn't fast with a younger, cheaper and hungrier player. Lucic needs to go for literally anything that results in him off the books completely. Sekera and Russell need to go for anything and they need to find trades were they can get depth guys from other teams who could move up the lineup.
Players like Connor Brown out of Toronto, players who are stuck in the bottom 6 but have the skills to play more offensive rolls but there are too many people ahead of them on their teams.
Once Edmonton switches out their slow players with speed, McDavid will do the rest.
