The cap is rising and the big contracts are offset by value deals like Hyman and Nugent-Hopkins. They'll be fine.

Edmonton doesn't need to trade one of their big guys at all. They have enough cap space to re-sign Draisaitl, Bouchard and McDavid.
And they have no interest in Merzlikins. Skinner is already a starter, they don't need to bring in an overpaid backup in order to let him "develop".

Chicago already has Jones and Murphy playing top-4 RHD. There are lots of teams that would value Ceci, but Chicago is not near the top of that list.
You're undervaluing the Oilers players you've traded, by a LOT. All of Ceci, Kulak and Kane are worth more than the returns you have here.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>1 - No, I did not say anything like that. And the credit I gave to McD is related to gaining and maintaining O zone time, which by the law of there's only one puck on the ice equates to less time spent in the D zone. I'm not even sure why he has to be a Selke candidate to be great at piling up O zone time.
2 - Except nobody said he should not get some credit. They said hey, let's not get crazy with the credit and add some perspective. Those are two different animals.
3 - Heh. Okay, man. You've conflated so much stuff that I don't even know how this relates to the original topic. And I've seen far too much of Makar to bother arguing over his play driving acumen. That's just kooky.
And just FYI...

This is not taking a shot at you, but why is everyone treating Ceci as a cap dump, he isn't one he still has value</div></div>
Via Bruce McCurdy:
<em>Kane has 47 shots on net during his 17-game goalless streak...
His career Sh% of 11.8% suggests he should have 5 or 6 goals in that span. Did he suddenly lose his finishing touch, or is he simply in an extended **** streak? Occam’s Razor slices in favour of the latter.</em>
He's in a scoring slump, nothing more. Meanwhile he has over 20 goals already this season. If he's getting traded in the summer it's for something of value.

Kane is NOT a cap dump. Scoring goals is the hardest thing to do and Kane is guaranteed to score 20+ every season, plus he's big, fast and physically intimidating. That has LOTS of value in this league.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>Uhhh... what? It's like you did not read anything I said. Put away the odd strawmen and give it another go.
- Analytics are not individual stats.
- Spending less time in your own zone is going to boost your analytics.
- Having forwards who keep the puck down at the other end a lot allows one to spend less time in the D zone.
Nobody said anything about Selkes or Makar or whatever. And no amount of analytics is going to make Bouchard the current best of those six Dmen or analytics into anything more than auxiliary context providers. Obviously.</div></div>
On-ice stats are not individual, but they are still the product of the players on the ice. So you saying that Bouchard's sparkling defensive metrics are just because he plays with McDavid, and then turning around and denying that McDavid should get credit is a logical fallacy.
The fact is that the Oilers are the best team in the league when Bouchard is on the ice. Sure he doesn't get all the credit, but he's certainly part of it. Here's how you can know that: by looking at his results with and without McDavid.

Bouchard is full value for his on-ice results, with or without McDavid.
Let's do the same for Makar, shall we?

Wow, we can see who is driving the bus in Colorado, and it's certainly not Makar. He can't even break even w/o MacKinnon, and yet he's considered a lock to be a Norris finalist.

There is a defenseman who looks like he doesn't belong here, but it's not Evan Bouchard.

His defensive stats are <strong>miles</strong> better than Dobson's, for instance.

He's clearly one of the best defensemen in the league right now, let alone one of the best Canadian defenseman.
