bad.

Explain?

Parakyo had a case for Conn Smythe. You're not getting him for Larrson (mediocre top 4) Pulj (whos a bust rn) Bear (unproven, non-NHL ready prospect), a 25 yr old 15 nhl games EXP whos probably never going to stick, and picks...

STL ask for Draisaitl

Why do you hate draft picks?

Oh, and that Nurse trade is ridiculous.

Considering Parayko had 8 more points then Larrson for 1.4 million more i would think there is merrit to the swap considering st louis has a log jam of defense-man, obviously larrsson is not as good as parayko but a combination of the prospects, picks and larsson are a starting point, im sure id have to sweeten it but its not as bad of a deal as your making it out to be on the surface, yes parayko played great in the playoffs but does st louis get to the final again? if they don't maneuver the cap properly they may have to blow it up after next year.

your right, it was late last night and I thought i had more on it, no excuse for the nurse trade haha wanted to dump cap and get a 5/6 LD in the process but just not enough coming the oilers way for sure. and i def don't hate draft picks but in this scenario the oilers are tired of wasting draft picks in a bad system and opted to sacrifice some prospect depth for a couple years to get proven players that fit what is needed now and not 3 years down the road.

this team is far and away a better team then any oilers team we have iced in the past decade hands down

That's a pretty low bar though... and only because of some unrealistic moves.
