Quoting: DirtyDangles
You remove RNH, and add in other NHLers while adding a very good prospect. Not hard logic to follow. Again, I was unaware that there had to be precedent for making a trade...my logic and it's consistancy has been here the whole time. You just choose to ignore it because you think your players are fantastic when in reality it is McDavid who makes them look better than they are. And yes McDavid is going to want out after next season goes the same way as this season where he has to play with a guy like Kassian or Chaisson. Have fun in the basement bud, you are about to be there for a very long time! Which is absolutely pathetic since you have had 4 1st overall picks in the past 8 drafts.
I'm going to dissect this bit by bit because i don't know how bright you are.

"You remove RNH, and add in other NHLers while adding a very good prospect. Not hard logic to follow." Who on the market can EDM sign that can provide similar point production while playing the same position for $6M ??? The moment you trade away RNH you are now hunting for his replacement because the Oilers do not have him in the system nor do they have the cap space to spend big dollars in free agency. I'm well aware of what you think you receive by trading away RNH but i dont think you understand what you lose by trading away a 69pt 2nd line Center.

I was unaware that there had to be precedent for making a trade Precedence shows that there is history on your side; however; you lack to provide any amount which is part of the reason why i think you are clueless

you think your players are fantastic when in reality it is McDavid who makes them look better than they are Do people suggest trading Point because he plays with Kucherov ? Some Oilers fans understand that the team has consistently undervalued actual NHL talent while overvaluing prospects thereby creating a revolving door where NHL players leave and we are forced to watch the learning game. These same Oiler fans value RNH as the 2nd line C he is and we arent going to accept 75 cents on the dollar. McD is an amazing player and he makes most everybody around him better but that doesnt mean EDM is gonna undervalue a key piece in their lineup. Also understand there is a real sensitivity to EDM dealing players when you look back through the past years of trades, so we will be skeptical of ALL offers

And yes McDavid is going to want out after next season goes the same way as this season where he has to play with a guy like Kassian or Chaisson. By trading RNH you assume EDM will land all the top free agents along side McD?? Doubtful so how about add where you can with what you can, offload some deadweight (Russell Lucic) so that McD doesnt have to play with Kassian or Chaisson. RNH and McD are close teammates & Friends how do you think he would enjoy another good friend being dealt.

Which is absolutely pathetic since you have had 4 1st overall picks in the past 8 drafts Couple things, I dont actually run the Oilers ( i wish i did, i would have done things quite differently ) and speaking of basements you should probably leave your moms basement and catch some fresh air, all the philly cheese farts are starting to rot your brain.
