It would be pretty folish to reject this. Plus with their pick in the top 15 they can easily replace bear in the draft. They can draft a player like Braden Schneider who can crack the lineup in a year or two. They got Bouchard who looks ready and can potentially replace bear and cost much less. In addition, the oilers get a fast wing to pair with Mcdavid and a better goaltender who can play more games. Sure they lose a young RHD but with their draft pick and assets coming back it works.
I mean a dcore of
Klefbolm-Larsson
Nurse-Bouchard
Jones-Russel/Benning
