Massive overpay by the oilers
Koskinen have a negative value in trade with is performance and salary so Edmonton need to give MTL something back for them to take is contrat.
Lehkonen value could be like goodrow and Coleman from last year trade which mean a late first round pick and you retain salary so that another something to add. Allen could be between a 3 or 2 round pick.
Edmonton first round pick is currently between #15 and #25 so it's value is a middle round pick. It's good when there a draft with alot of player to develop.
So the value is closer in total maybe add depth d-man like Kulak or pick like 3 or 4 round pick to add but for me there not a big gap like some think about.
After are Edmonton would prefer to try have a guys like Klingberg or Giroux before with is first round pick surely. But who know what gonna happen at deadline or when it's gonna start to trade aways because when it's gonna start to fall and teams see other competitors upgrading there roster they will want to add to. There will be some kind of pressure to boost your teams if you want to go to playoffs.
