Salary Cap Mode: Basic

With the Oilers not targeting a goaltender at this years TDL this is the one move I would really really really like to see Ken Holland make, The value I have is all I would want to give up but it could be more. I think when fully healthy our forward group is not in need of any major changes. I want to give Holloway a chance before the years done so that he can potentially move into the lineup full time next season. Im a little disapointed in the org for not trying to upgrade goaltending this year but to be fair there are not a lot in the Market. Fluery who wont waive to go to a Canadian team anyway is gonna cost too much for a rental. Georgiev isnt playing great right now and tbh id rather have koski in the short term. The only goaltender I would actively pursue is Carter Hart who is going to cost more than the Oilers can afford to give while remaining competitive. I think the Oilers should make one big trade to get a really solid player instead of a bunch of meh smaller trades. I think that Jacob Chychrun is a really good fit on Edmonton, he is a young true top 4 defensman on a really good contract with term! I feel that we could send either of Broberg or Holloway in this trade but i chose Brobs because we have some more depth in the LD slot with Samo, Lagesson, Niemlainen. We also have Bourgalt who will likely sign his ELC this summer so sending Holloway instead wouldnt destroy our forward prospect pool but I would hate to see either one go.
Kenny really needs to do something intresting here because I cannot deal with another heart break in the playoffs.
