A better trade for both sides would be Faulk + Skinner + Rask to EDM for Draisaitl + Kassian. Now of course everyone’s gonna bellyache about losing Drai but one cap neutral trade gets you a 26 yr multiple 30+ goal scorer (who’ll probably get 40 with McD), a 26 yr old Top4 RHD, PP QB, and a 25 yr old 6’2” 200+ lbs, 200’ two-way 2C (55% faceoffs). With the Oil high octane offense, you would get faster, deeper, and be more offensively potent, with all guys just entering their prime. Fans would hate it (on BOTH sides) but it’s an absolutely valid hockey trade that makes both teams better.
