I think Tatar would be a great pick up for Edmonton but Habs don’t need another LHD prospect. RW and RHD would suit us better.

MTL isn’t trading Tatar Petry Gallagher this summer, we are trying to make the playoffs. If by TDL they aren’t in the race, Tatar could be move

Ennis hasn't played center in the NHL for 6 or 7 years. It doesn't suit him.

Oilers aren’t paying a first third and good prospect for a rental that’s insane overpayment. Absolutely no reason to include benson in russell trade. Russell doesn’t carry negative value. He’s owed a lot less than his cap hit and is very serviceable I wouldn’t trade him in the first place for that reason but if so there will be a nice like up of teams willing to take him.

I'm sure their trying to make playoffs next season ( so is 30 other teams) Habs will not make the show next season - they have way too many hurdles to jump to get in

No one is "lining up" to take Russell,he is a cap dump regardless of the low real money involved

Agree to disagree. Because of lost revenues more owners and teams are going to be looking for those types of contracts and be having more internal budgets. It’s also very limited term and a usefully player that is capable of providing decent value even for his cap hit but only getting paid less than half of it.

Good point. Cap is flat but revenue has dropped significantly, there will be more owners than before cutting operating budgets because they have to finance the difference between revenue and cap.

Unlike before I can see new deals getting signed instead of front loaded be back end loaded to get threw this crunch. The market has changed significantly for the time being.

MTL wouldnt do it but most playoff teams have or will pay more for less.

TBL for example gave up a superior prospect and a 1st for a bottom 6 grinder with size who can score goals.
MIN gave up more then that for Hanzal fresh off an Injury after a career of being injured
Hell VGK payed a 1st ,2nd and 3rd to kill the PIT deal that was in place for Tatar (smart move to )

NHL Trade Deadline is the Pinnacle of Everything Capitalist.
Its Supply vs Demand

Was Plekanec worth a 2nd and 2 prospects?
Nope but he was the only Center available at the time on the market
I was surprised we got more then a 5th given his heavy decline that year

EDM has made like what 2 playoffs in the 14 years Katz ownerships been in place.
You've piled up top 10 picks and have like 2 that made good with the rest everywhere .
Moral of the story is your drafting is questionable even when you have top 10 picks so whats giving up a late 1st when you draft that poorly and develop worse?

Oilers drafting actually got a lot better soon as charelli took over it’s been fairly solid since. Bear jones yam benson Mcloed. Charelli made a lot of mistakes but bring Keith Gretzky into the organization has made a massive difference. Zero issue with the oilers drafting or developing now. Before Keith came into the organization it was horrendous to say the least.

Samorukov is a longshot to ever be an NHL regular, most likely a depth player who plays AHL for ~ 2 more seasons before going to KHL

He’s already been loaned to the Khl next year because of uncertainty of ahl even operating but he’s been progressing decently and is a legit prospect I highly doubt oilers would throw him in a deal like that. He turns it into a massive overpayment

For Habs, the only thing of real value in that deal is the 1st

Since that deal wouldn’t be accepted by holland nothing of it has any value to the habs. I want Tatar very interested don’t get me wrong but that’s a steep asking price

oilers only do that if tatar signs en extension
Bear would probably look for a shorter term with that money
Paying benning for that long is a bad idea
Hebig is a waste of a Oilers roster space
Mantha's blind

It would have to get better, it couldnt get any worse

but you have done better 2017 - now with 2-4 players a draft of decent quality
before that you'd get 1-2 success's for 6-8 failures in a draft with multiple 1st OA's no less.

The real shame is you're actually a decent team development wise but you give away the players or let them walk.
I mean Petry was a nice gift and i'm sure PIT thinks the same about Schultz
Ownership is your issue because since Katz took over you've done nothing but lose

You're trending the right way now but i have no faith Katz wont blow it
