                            Now that I think about it some more, I have no incentive to move him. Unless you're willing to overpay, I'm holding onto him.

                            I'd need a pretty serious overpayment on both right now to move either. Zibanejad is the closest thing to a 1C that I'll be able to find for a while, so unless it's a three-way in which I get another 1C (or it's around Seguin, which I'm sure isn't a possibility) I need a LOT. Hall is playing like a border-line superstar, so moving him costs a pretty penny as well.

                            Was there something in particular you had in mind?

                            Hi. I'm helping out with the Oilers. Just curious if Ellis is available for trade or would you consider him untouchable at this point?

                            Welcome to the game!

                            Right now, an Ellis trade requires a massive overpayment. I believe me and your head GM have discussed this before and no deal ever materialized.

                            My GM doesn't recall the conversation. Add me on Twitter for discussion? @realOilersGM17

                            @Math No thanks. Hall has been an elite player this year, and Oshie has struggled with way too much term. Hall isn't available at all, unless you're willing to talk Ovechkin with retention +.

                            @GronkNation it's a top four RHD prospect +. Not sure what I'd want the plus to be, I'd have to look into your team some more. I'd rather trade Lehner than Grubauer at this point, if that interests you any. I'm more willing to do a deal there.

                            My lack of RHD is forcing me to wait it out......


                            If we're talking about Lehner, I'd be okay with a different package.

                            It can be around a solid young defenseman, defense prospect or picks

                            Do you have any interest in Jacob Larsson? If so what would you offer for him?

                            I do have interest in him. is there something in particular that you guys want for him? I'm in rebuilding mode as well, so it may be difficult to find a fit here.

                            Ideally we’d be looking for a good forward prospect or good RHD prospect. 1st round pick in the mid-early 20s range could possibly work too. One for one swaps would be preferred. Not very interested in a package deal unless it’s well worth it.

                            I don't have a lot of good RHD prospects at my disposal right now. While I'd like to get him, I don't really see a fit here. I probably wouldn't want to give up the forward prospect you'd need, and Larsson wouldn't be a critical piece to my future given Ekholm, Girard and Butcher are already my LHDs. Thanks though

                            I'd be looking for a young NHL center with some upside plus some futures, depending on the center.

                            so if I said Jaret Anderson-Dolan (41st overall in 2017) what else would you be thinking

                            JAD doesn't interest me a ton. I'm pretty set on center prospects for now. I took a look at your team, and I'm not sure I see a fit for a trade.
