Vegas is 9 games above .500 and the Oilers are a game below so it seems like the Knights are pretty much a lock for at least a playoff spot at this point.
Can't see the 'not wanting wanting to help each other out' factoring in too much at this point but maybe.
Probably extracting a 4th rounder out of Talbot, a 3rd at best but like I said Vegas has lots of 2nds + 3rds so maybe could snag a late 2nd out of them. If the Oilers did trade Talbot they could probably grab an experienced but struggling backup like Calvin Pickard or Chad Johnson for a 7th round pick, I realize not ideal but not a big cost and might be better then throwing a rookie to the wolves. Lol
Couldn't they call up Montoya?
