As the title says, Kane is a pure rental for Edmonton. If the Wings appear to be middling at best again at the deadline, Kane agrees to move for a shot at a playoff run and another Cup, but everyone knows he'll go back to Detroit again for the following year(s). Is a 1st round pick intended to be 32nd overall but could end up as high as 16-20 ish too much or not enough for a pure rental meant to help bring a championship home? If the Oilers do win the Cup, the trade would be an obvious win in my books for them. Oilers top line remains intact:
Nuge - McDavid - Hyman
E. Kane/Foegele - Draisaitl - P. Kane
Foegele/E. Kane - McLeod - Ryan
Janmark - Hamblin - Brown
Also, somehow the Oilers overcome this annoying $61,000 cap deficit lol. Someone else I missed to send down perhaps.
