I am sorry, but as someone who has watched every Oilers game, the Derek Ryan deal is insulting to him. He has been leading our penalty kill very well and has been producing the kind of offense you can hope for from a 4th-liner. If we are gonna trade him, we can certainly get much more than a 7th.
I also find the Seattle trade unlikely as they want picks, if we're gonna offload on them they're gonna want some picks to go with, not to mention they are giving way too little for two depth wingers, a star offensive-defensemen (who yes, sucks on D), and a prospect who will likely fill be a nice depth power forward. On that note I do find trading Benson a little too eager. He has had a lot of chemistry with McLeod, and if Benson continues to trend in the direction he is then they can make a REALLY good third line.
