Oilers lose 11 of their next 12 games, 10 of wich are regulation losses. They get a point against Chicago and find a way to beat Minnesota.

Leafs will just sign McDavid when he's a UFA in 2 and a half years.

The gap between McDavid and Marner isn’t worth losing Knies + Niemela + multiple 1sts.

It's not an easy trade to make. A team would basically be gutting their team to acquire him. High picks, Blue Chip prospects and good young players already on your team.

Marner is a Toronto boy. No way he's waiving his NMC.

GM’s don’t wait multiple years to see IF a guy even gets to free agency or IF he would even sign with their team. This is such a dumb fan perspective. If you wait 2.5 years then your window to win is smaller - if you get him now it helps you win now and possibly even more within that window and they take that chance because a GM job isn’t guaranteed.

If McDavid became available you can bet every team would be looking to acquire him now and not wait.

I wonder what McDavid’s “list” would look like.

Would he want US vs Canada? Big vs small? Win now or about to win now? East vs West?

Could also be a list of one…which would stink for Edmonton…but would be great for whomever he chooses.

If Edm. is a dumpster fire, they don't need to trade Campbell, and get rid of 2 1rsts that they're going to need.
