Five stars for wanting O'Reilly
I try to will break the trades down
O'Reilly, R for 2018 1st round pick (CHI) 2018 1st round pick (NSH) and 2018 2nd round pick (CHI), this is way more then DATM gave up to get O'Reilly
Ristolainen, R for Duclair, A., Murphy, C., 2019 1st round pick (CHI) and 2018 3rd round pick (CHI), this is more than the typical return for player as Ristolainen
Duclair was on his way to another 20 goal season in Arizona before being traded to Chicago
Murphy will not make any one forget Ristolainen but he is a solid RHD
I would make this deal then try to sign free agents John Carlson and Derek Ryan would be at the top of the list. With 5 picks among the top 38 would certainly give Botterill a chance to rebuild the prospect pool
