Team: 2022-23 Edmonton Oilers

Initial Creation Date: May 12, 2022

Published: May 12, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Here's the scenario: Edmonton loses in the first round again and McDavid is done, he requests a trade. Edmonton chooses to use Draisaitl as their 1C and tries to fill the holes in their lineup with the trade.

The conditions for the trade are as follows:
Has to be a team in a different division, plus if in the other conference
Team agrees to take on Zack Kassians contract (optional but decided to add it in the trades for balance)
Young Top 4 Defenseman, preferably RHD
Young Top 6 Player
Starting Goaltender, preferably under 28 years old
(Middle tier 1st round pick and a 3rd, negotiable)

This is an example line up so it doesn't include possible extra trades Edmonton would make, the Oilers in LTIR are players that would be traded or would stay there for retirement (Keith, Klefblom)

Did my best to come up with teams with a need for the best player in the world and the correct pieces. Please give me your mock trades and roast the value of mine.

it's almost impossible to trade McDavid with how today's times are. If you wanted to even get fair value for him, it'd be minimum the team's best forward, best prospect + at least 3 1st round picks. Hell I'd say a 1st for every year left on McDavid's contract. And at that point it gets ridiculous and you're pretty much gutting your foreseeable future.
It's McDavid after all.
