trying to explain every trade

Created by: datmonkey91
Team: 2021-22 Edmonton Oilers
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 2, 2022
Published: Jan. 2, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
NOTES:

- Tippett and Holland need to go. If you watch the oilers play you'll see why.

- A majority of draft picks are gone but the past few years the oilers have done a really solid job in the late rounds drafting and to add on have a decent pool already. So, I'm not too worried about the lack of picks. Also, Kubalik's rights can be traded for a 3rd or something since he's an RFA.

- Bringing in two scoring forwards opens up endless possibilities for the oilers as they can move around guys if the offense dries up and most importantly, helps out McLeod and improves the third line drastically.

- Acquiring a new second pair will do wonders for the team as Keith is okay but thrives more under limited minutes. And Ceci is completely average and isn't a game changer which the oilers lack on the back end. Chairot strengthens the oilers defensively as he can step in and play near or around 20 minutes a night. Klingberg would be a real nice player to have as his offensive abilities would create better scoring chances for the oilers and improve their already scary good powerplay.

- I'm not sold on Fleury but I know he is capable of being an solid starter still and hopefully that's what he is if the oilers acquire him.
Trades
1.
EDM
  1. 2022 2nd round pick (VAN)
ARI
  1. Barrie, Tyson
  2. 2023 5th round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
As bad as Barrie is he's a decent offensive dman and I know that some Gm's think he has some value. I'm not sure where'll he'll end up but I think he can help out the Coyotes forwards and add to the RD (a place they're not strong at).
2.
EDM
  1. 2022 6th round pick (PHI)
PHI
  1. Kassian, Zack
  2. 2023 3rd round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
According to Servalli and Allan Mitchell, there are some teams that do value Kassian but just to make sure, I added a small sweetener for the flyers to take him. Also, the trade doesn't have to be with the flyers it could be any team that is interested in him.
3.
EDM
  1. Fleury, Marc-André ($3,500,000 retained)
  2. Kubalik, Dominik ($1,200,000 retained)
CHI
  1. Koskinen, Mikko
  2. Samorukov, Dmitri
  3. 2022 1st round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
The Blackhawks sell their expiring players at the deadline and get back some decent pieces. In order for the oilers to get flower, they'd need to trade a goalie and in this case is Koskinen who is a serviceable backup in the league still. Giving up a 1st and a B/B+ level prospect in Samorukov should get the deal done for two rental players.
4.
EDM
    Future Considerations
    BUF
    1. Turris, Kyle
    2. 2024 4th round pick (EDM)
    Additional Details:
    This is a cap dump and Turris only has this year left on a small contract so the 4th should be more than enough.
    5.
    EDM
    1. Chiarot, Ben ($1,750,000 retained)
    MTL
    1. Mazura, Tomas [Reserve List]
    2. Rodrigue, Olivier
    3. 2022 2nd round pick (VAN)
    Additional Details:
    I don't believe that Chiarot is worth the 1st like Friedman said so a second, a C prospect and rodrigue who is a wild card (could be a solid NHL goalie or just an AHL guy) should get the deal done.
    6.
    EDM
    1. Kessel, Phil ($3,400,000 retained)
    2. 2023 4th round pick (ARI)
    ARI
    1. Lavoie, Raphael
    2. 2023 2nd round pick (EDM)
    Additional Details:
    The asking price for Kessel apparently is a higher end mid round pick (2nd-4th), so a 2nd along with a B/B+ prospect should be enough for Kessel with retention and a 4th back
    7.
    DAL
    1. Savoie, Carter [Reserve List]
    2. Tullio, Tyler
    3. 2023 1st round pick (EDM)
    4. 2023 4th round pick (EDM)
    Additional Details:
    Despite his slow start, Klingberg is still an elite offensive dman who is okay in the defensive zone. He slots in perfectly into the second pairing and top powerplay unit (basically a huge Barrie upgrade). No doubt he fetches a 1st+ at the deadline and here the oilers give up some solid prospects along with two draft picks for him.
    8.
    EDM
    1. 2023 7th round pick (PIT)
    PIT
    1. Koekkoek, Slater
    Additional Details:
    Pittsburgh players are always somehow injured so bringing in a depth guy who can step in and not hurt the team would be a nice asset to have.

    John Klingberg is a poor-man's Tyson Barrie. Your valuations are way off here. Clearly you haven't been paying attention to Tullio or Savoie either.
