It would cost Marner + Nylander + Sandin to get McDavid.
Leafs not doing that.

No it wouldnt, the oilers cant afford that.

So far so good.

how's the arm punching competition going?

mine lasted a few days

I would. I love McDavid. He's amazing. . . . but . . . You insert his $12.5m along with the $32.5 being paid to Matthews, Marner and JT, and that's $45m paid to 4 guys. We need a top-tier defenseman not more offense. I would rather see them move out Rielly and go after Hamilton, not move out Rielly and go after more $800k defensemen because we can't afford anything better!

JT concussion (LTIR) will allow McJesus to be a Leafs cap wise

And McDavid will need to have his wounded pride repaired, so he'll go on the LTIR until the first game of the 2022 playoffs.

Allowing Edmonton to sign Hamilton and Andersen in the process?

Genius.

If only Edmonton was allowed to hide McDavid on IR like Tampa did with Kucherov
- PatC80

They wouldn't make the playoffs then, so it wouldn't work for them

So they're trading him to Tampa?

Nah just do what TBAY did this year to circumvent the cap. OIL could rest McD on LTIR then bring him back two weeks before the season like TBAY did with Kucherov and Stamkos lol

Gretzky stepping away from the oilers.

Not bad right now.

Oilers say No..

I think the closest we would be able to get, would be Marner, Rielly, Robertson, Amirov and two 1st rd picks.. Even with that, I think Edm says no..
- PatC80

And if they say yes, we turn into the Oilers

So Tippett breaks McDavid’s hip in the parking lot after the media availability. You Canucks guys is smart smart smart

No it wouldnt, the oilers cant afford that.

I don’t trade half the team for McDavid

If mcjesus wants out, they will have to.

Start the rebuild by trading Drysaddle. Can’t trade Nurse and you can’t trade best player in the world. You’ve already got cap space but that won’t get you the premium pieces. Leon will.

Step one is to learn how to draft and develop or acquire supportive talent. That is the only way to help the big stars. Washington/Pitts/Chicago/LA etc. all kept getting new players and were able to move around their huge contracts both internally or by getting good finds. The Oilers need more Ethan Bear's (a 4-5 dman atm) and less...everything else.

I would do a swap for Tavares and McDavid, Leafs would have to add of course, throw in Rielly and Andersen...but it would make the Cap work....and Edm still has two top centers in Drysaddle and JT and get a D and goalie.

JT, Rielly, Andersen and a 1st for McD

Then do one other trade for:

McNabb and MAF for picks/prospects/roster player?.


Hyman, Matthews, Marner
Micheyev, McDavid, Nylander
Galychenyuk, Kefoot, Engvall
Simmonds, Spezza, Brooks

McNabb, Brodie
Muzzin, Holl
Sandin, Bogo

Campbell
MAF (retained)

Who says no?

Also, I wouldn't trade Matthews for McDavid.

I don't think Matthews is better per se, but there are some things about him and his game I like better. JMHO.

Awww geez...

Just found out Mona's Roti delivers on Uber Eats

This is bad

They’ve got three legitimate pieces right now. I don’t see how you convince McDavid to hang tight while they draft and develop some kids and they come close to having the supporting cast that Toronto or even Winnipeg has. It’s a big ask to go and get that through FA.

How many years do you want the guy to wait?

Edmonton. About 1000 times.

You know how you thought Darnell Nurse couldn't get more exhausted after last night?

Don’t let Bear handle it. He’ll give it away to someone on another team
