Thread: Big add
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>realKyleDavidson</b></div><div>interesting....why do you say that? admittedly I don't watch the most Oilers games but you think you need another center?</div></div>

Thanks for taking the time to respond.
1) Oilers desperately need a RHC for draws, they don’t have a good one (Ryan) but he’s barely an NHL player any longer.
2) Size, Dach is a huge kid, Oilers have a size and aggression problem, Dach solves this.
3) Potential, Dach has been progressing the correct way, I see him as a full time number 2C or a RW the greatest attribute a centre has is the ability to play wing.
4) He PK’s in fact he’s on Chicago number 1 unit.
5) He’s from Edmonton, he’s more apt to hang around ( people underestimate the importance of this)

Add on - Dach has offensive potential, Oilers could centre him between Hyman &amp; RNH and that line would be terrible to play against. - Need a goal, throw him on with Draisaitl &amp; Kane and that’s a lot of angry beef beef coming at you.
I’m a big fan of Dach, at the very least you get a different perspective &amp; you see why Debrincat isn’t the guy, Dach fills more rolls the Oilers need.

Those are just off the top of my head, I’m sure I could come up with more.

Thread: Ya I did it And I would do it again
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>B_seka17</b></div><div>Flyers can't retain on 4 players and won't be interested in that. I know McDavid is the best in the world and is a hell of a hockey player but its not worth being in cap hell and not being able to give him a supporting cast to win to bring him in. The Flyers couldnt get any goalie or depth and would basically just be the Oilers but with worse cap and no Drai</div></div>

This was just a trial run, all your points are absolutely correct, I don’t think McDavid is going to be an Oiler much longer, just getting sense of what a trade may look like, I definitely could have added quality to the trade - Skinner (NHL ready) better prospects &amp; NHL players like Yamamoto instead of Kassian.
What do the picks look like?
What king of youth the oilers could expect?
What king of centre depth is out there
I just really liked the Flyers depth of young players.
Hey, thanks for taking the time to bounce ideas off ya!
