Description

Not that the bottom 6 was the problem in the playoffs (cough cough Connolly getting benched, but there were a bunch of high cap players in the bottom 6 that I decided to move around, which allowed for the most creativity). I kept the top 6 together and just tried to work from there. If you disagree I would love to know why you wouldn't think the deals would/wouldn't work.

Not a chance Nashville trades Ekholm for that. They'd need a number 1 center to even think about it. You'er way over valuing Grigs and Pirri, they're 1 year sub 1 million dollar contract type of players. Not enough for Grubby. Nurse trade doesn't make sense either.

lolol Nashville seriously needs a winger and elder can slide in easily as a 3rd line center, maybe even 2nd. #1 Center for ekholm? Thats just not fair value at all. Tom Wilson has a lot of promise and after losing James Neal they are gonna need to supplement scoring from somewhere else. Pirri is incredibly versatile and can put up easily 30 points in a season if he played all 82. For the versatility and point scoring, 2.4m for him is beyond fair. Grigorhenko I might have overpaid tbh looking at it now. Nurse trade doesn't make sense...smh...have u taken one look at the Oilers roster. They need a rw and a rw bad. They need one who can score and not just a 4th line grinder. Siegenthaler is a top prospect but he might be trending down due to struggles in hershey. EDM is looking to shop Nurse so we could get a potential top 4 guy for pennies on the dollar.
