Why would Edmonton trade Koskinen for Jones at the deadline? They're trying to make the playoffs!

Figured the Oilers would be making other moves and Koskinen's cap hit can go to Philly. Martin Jones is kind of a lateral move with a big cap saving. I didn't think Koskinen, Mike Smith, or Martin Jones was aiding any playoff run beyond an average replacement goalie so I thought the lower cap was crucial.

Neither Jones or Brassard really interest the oilers.

Jones isn’t an upgrade or a solution in goal.

Brassard is just meh. Doesn’t really address a need and seems like he is somewhere between Ryan and Turris at this point. Skilled guy, but no room in the top 9 and not physical enough to play on a 4th line.

Nothing in this package makes me want to give a decent forward prospect in Lavoie.

Koskinen is better goalie right now regardless of cap hit. Giving up Lavoie for nothing of value is a waste of everyone's time.
