Description
In order of most to least likely imo

Just ideas, if either of them get moved itll be for massive hauls that we havent seen since Gretzky (McDavid especially, Drai will exceed Eichel by quite a bit but not be insane)

                        I’d rather die than the rangers make that trade

                        For the Carolina one... take out one of the firsts if your asking us to take on the Campbell contract... but I love the idea... Aho-McDavid-Svechnikov would be a killer line. We can plug the holes in top six with a couple of promising prospects in NCAA

                        The thing that will hurt the Oilers so badly in this is McDavid's NMC. He will dictate where he goes and that is going to lessen the return by a big amount. It will be a bad return in relation to how good he is. Draisaitl will likely get a more fair return than McDavid, but only because he's not half as good as McDavid. No one is. But if he says I will only go to (insert 3 or less places), those teams will be contenders and they won't likely be able to give half as many assets as you will want.

                        If the time comes that McDavid is traded it will gut you all. I don't want to see it happen, despite some fans on here who are aggravating, McDavid leaving Edmonton will break that city and they don't deserve that.

                        Leafs definitely accept the McDavid deal. Probably decline the Draisaitl deal but not by much IMO.

                        A lot to unpack here but only the Buff McD trade seems somewhat close. The others are pretty skewed one way or the other. Even then, if Quinn is the best player coming back, Edmonton wouldn't do it. Swap Quinn for Cozens.

                        Canes trade isn't bad but I'd replace Orlov with another prospect, he's lined up to be Skjei's replacement next year. Would also prefer not to take Campbell's contract but the buyout isn't horrible so its not a dealbreaker.

                        Yeah, you aren't getting all that from Buffalo especially if Campbell is included. Plus McDavid will basically pick where he wants to go so if he does choose Buffalo it's gonna hurt the ask.

                        Buffalo has more centers than they know what to do with. Neither trade makes sense, especially with their cap hits

                        Too much from buffalo for mcdavid. The draisatl trade is interesting, but with a year and change before ufa, I think I'd let somebody else pony up.

                        too much from Buffalo, on top of 5 mil in dead cap. You can be trading all that, and McDavid would hit UFA.

                        As Take 11m off the books than give Willy 10m and Marner 12m they can easily do it (Willy less than 4m increase in pay marner 1.1m increase)

                        They got the space and room to do damage

                        Mcdavid will be 6 mill more than tavares at UFA prices, so there's 13 mill in pay increase in your core 4 from what you have now. in 3 years the cap goes up, 10 mill? So your situation now but with even less available cap space to pay depth that costs more due to overall cap increases. Wouldn't say that's ideal

                        Me: Perreault, Miller and Kakko is too much for McDavid? lmao ok

                        You: Laugh all you want, it's an absurd trade offer and Rangers wouldn't even consider it.

                        This was after you said "You get half way thru that offer and Drury hangs up"

                        Soooooo who was wrong, again? lmao

                        I said YOUR ORIGINAL trade offer is absurd. No comments on your follow comments which are also absurd. But, expected from a fishstick fan.
