Created by: AN31879765
Team: 2017-18 Edmonton Oilers
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 23, 2018
Published: Feb. 23, 2018
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
The Edmonton Oilers seem like the most logical destination because they have a lot of prospects and need a franchise defenseman under Connor McDavid. The Oilers want to solidify themselves as contenders and by getting Karlsson, they would be doing so much more.

Not even close in terms of value. It has to be this years 1st rounder otherwise no chance

There's no way Ottawa does this, Karlsson is maybe the 3rd best player in the league. The value just isn't there even with this year 1st rounder unless its first overall but I don't see why they want Larsson. Also, I don't think the Oilers could or would do it at the moment that trade would have to be in the off-season, right now it would just mess up their chances at the top of the draft and their going to want a chance to re-sign him so they'd have to trade salary especially with Nurse, Puljarrvi coming up soon but they don't have that many trade-able assets Lucic and Russell are pretty much untradable. As much as I'd love Karlsson the Oilers can't get him without trading one of or both of Lucic and Russell to a different team because the Sens don't want to take on salary and they then'd probably have to include those assets if it wasn't the Oilers that had to give up the assets to get the money off of the books and probably also take back Bobby Ryan, in that case I'd love to see a trade at the draft that looks like (Karlsson, Hoffman, Ryan, a 5th) for (Drai, Kelfbom, Kailer, 2019 1st, 2018nd)

I agree in principle it makes all kinda sense for the Oilers but unless they can dump Lucic & RNH for next to nothing salary wise there's NOOOOOO way they can extend him & have a competitive lineup.
Lucic 6 + RNH 6 + Draisaitl 8.5 + McDavid 12.5 = 33M plus whatever you gotta pay to keep Karlsson
Still need some wingers & other dmen

I'll second that. There's no way this ends up being the best deal out there.

EDM doesn't have the high-end or even mid-range prospects at their disposal to make a deal like this work.

NSH + TB + WPG + PHI + TOR + even VGK have more capital to get a deal like this done.

And if EDM were even able to close this deal, how in the heck do you even field a full roster if you try to resign him?!
