EDM - NYR

Everything here looks good but I think you should get more for Strome. Especially since every team wants him

Yeah, ideally it'd be Samorukov + 2020 2nd rounder; I just remembered that EDM has a condition on their 2020 3rd rounder too, so that might not even be available. In that case, I'd look at a Broberg-Strome swap (which I don't think EDM would be as willing).

The Strome trade might be fair trade value. But the Oilers like so many other team might be not able to take on with cap with sending cap back in trade.
Same with Maatta and dozens of other average NHLers, teams just don't want their cap hit for what they produce on the ice.
That's a big hope...thinking Andersson is NHL good. If he is doubt if the Ranger would give up on him.

As an Oilers fan I agree with your projection for Samorukov, but I think he needs another year in the AHL before he's ready to take on top-4 minutes in the NHL.

And the conditions on that 3rd are based on Neal scoring 21 goals this season, but he scored 19. So I think that pick is available.

I guess it depends on how much Strome gets paid this summer, but you're probably correct that some cap has to go back.
