Thread: Fix This Mess
I'm predicting in the future than no top 1st round draft pick will ever want to play for Edmonton ever again.
They will hold out and demand a trade.
Who in the hell would want to go to such a cluster F of an organization. I'd rather go play in the NCAA than join the Oilers.
They have single handedly ruined McDavids career to this point. By the time they turn this mess around he'll be 26 years old. And that's if they are lucky and don't keep screwing it up along the way.
The best thing I can say about them is that by the end of next year everyone of those losers in the forward group will be off the roster other than Lucic. So they can at least rebuild. But sadly they will still be wasting 6 million a year on Lucic unless they can dump him on seattle. But what would that cost? Why the hell would they ever want him.

Thread: McJ will ask for a tradeMatter of time
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arousedcat</b></div><div>I don't think any package comes close to "fair value" for McDavid since he's a true generational player (I hate using that term since all the "analysts" throw it around every year at the draft, but McDavid actually fits the bill for the word). With that said, this is a pretty insane package for the Oilers. Dumba is signed to a steal of a contract and was having a Norris caliber year before tearing his pec. He was on pace for 30 goals and while I don't think he would have had that many at the end of the year he definitely would have been over 20. Not many defenseman can do that, and has 4 consecutive seasons over 10 goals as a 24 year old, which is extremely impressive for a defenseman. Greenway has been an absolute monster for us, he will be a terrifying power forward once he gets some experience under his belt. Zucker is definitely slumping this year, but he has a 33 goal season under his belt and has two other 20+ goal seasons which definitely has value. Two 1st round picks and a 2nd round pick is also a lot.

Bottom line I don't think Edmonton would take this trade (I'm not sure why everyone is posting these McDavid trades since he's the perfect player to rebuild around), but it's a very nice package for a generational talent.</div></div>

Yeah I’m not saying that minny isn’t offering quality Peices, they definitely are. But like I said, mcdavid has TOP 5 potential. Not to mention all the money he generates for the team like I listed above. Edmonton needs to hire a compentent GM and they’ll be fine. There’s no player I’d rather build around than mcdavid
