Add Key Pieces to Compete for Cup (for real this time)

Created by: jayjenkins
Team: 2018-19 Edmonton Oilers
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 19, 2018
Published: Mar. 19, 2018
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Getting Korposalo adds competition to goalie tandem, both FA after season, depending on season success can determine future in goal
Trading RNH gets rid of contract and shifting Draisaitl back to C provides Berglund 3rd line C ability. Having McDavid, Draisiaitl as 1, 2 centers will be similar to Crosby, Malkin setup. Pens tried pairing them with Malkin on wing but realized that seperating them will expand skill in lineup. McClennan (or his replacement) should see this and make this change.
Bear/Jones will compete for roster spot with Benning as 7 D for depth

There's no reason to lose so badly on a Nugent-Hopkins deal. It's not as if you're using the additional cap space on an impact player.

You just made the team worse. Congratulations.

Benning's too good to sit. If he doesn't make your top six, trade him for thoughts and prayers.

That's a horrible deal for Nugent-Hopkins. I can understand not needing to pay a 3rd line centre $6M per, but there's no reason to give him away for basically nothing. The Oilers have already done that with Hall and Eberle, and look how well that's worked out.

While, making the team worse is kind of realistic, considering the GM.

Blues would probably give you 2018 1st (WPG) + 2019 1st (STL) + Berglund for Nuge + Caleb Jones.

I think CBJ is hoping that Korpisalo can be their new #1 when Bob's contract is up so I don't think they will be too interested in that deal. Also, this team still does not look like a contender. You have Poolparty and Strome in your top 6 that haven'y shown that they are top 6 players and you have Lucic who would lose a race to a slightly athletic turtle.

Edmonton needs to upgrade their D big time here, No way that team is winning a cup with the exact same D as now.
