Team: 2019-20 Edmonton Oilers

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 19, 2019

Published: Jul. 19, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

If Neal can bounce back and play like he did in Vegas, Edmonton will have a solid top 6 goal-scoring winger for McDavid. Even if he doesn’t fully bounce back, Edmonton clearly won the trade anyways, but it’s an interesting situation for Neal this upcoming season.

Does Edmonton still win the trade if they give up a conditional pick and retention, it’s looking like they are

Put him with McDavid and hope he scores 25 goals by the trade deadline and then send him to anyone for anything. This could be a huge boon for Edmonton. Calgary is about to fall apart and I love it lol.

i think if they retain much more than 1 mil and more than a 3rd round pick is going to be hard to swallow unless neal puts up 20 goals the next 2 years

I think so, especially if Neal scores 20+ goals this year because there is no way Lucic will be able to do that.
