Description
Team is cooked.
I think after last night Crosby knows. He’ll decide what happens, but the reality is that if he wants to stay, they’ll lose Guentzel for nothing unless they drastically overpay, and won’t be able to move anything else. Value is best right now for him to fetch a good return from a contender, and you’d get two solid playoff runs from him.

EK is gone in the summer when a retention spot opens up, unless someone shows up to retain in exchange for picks.

If Crosby was traded, it would be in the offseason.

You can get more for Guentzel.

You'd better get more if you're taking on Campbell

Agree 100% with this! I also believe if they were going to blow it up and shop the big three. It would be more so the big 2 (Malkin and Letang) which even this wouldn't happen. Crosby wouldn't be shopped but agreed. If they were going to make a trade for Malkin, Letang, or Crosby. It would be this offseason.


With that said, if you are blowing up the team and putting up the for sale sign, Karlsson, Smith, maybe Jarry (since goalie is a big need for a few contenders), Rust, Graves Lars Eller, and Acciari would definitely be names that are shopped and would have value around the league.

Oilers don’t want Rakell. Too much long term cap.

Will do

1st
2nd
Campbell

For

Ned (50% retained cause he’s a UFA)

That deal make sense for the Oilers. Anything more and we just buy Campbell out.

Yeah, Rakell probably isn't worth much more than Campbell at this point. Poor play, injury history and a massive contract.

And Ned most certainly isn't worth Broberg + 1st + 2nd.

Oh Ned ain’t worth that. But Campbell being dumped is worth the 1st and 2nd to the Oilers, Ned just a throw in really.
