Tor needs to shed caphit not take on a bad contract and give up a top 6 forward, and yeah they are compensated with a first but that doesnt mean jack if it costs them the space they need to sign marner, and fla trade is horrible too

I hear Ya

I would do the deals just before the draft , I only put Russell to the Leafs so Russell can take Gardiner spot and the Leafs get a shot blocked , And to move Lucic to where ever he wants to go its going to costed the oilers a arm and a leg to move Lucic , The oilers hands are in the air with Lucic because of his NMC here why CLAUSE DETAILS: June 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022 - Modified NTC: Submits a list of 8 teams he can be traded to / July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 - Modified NTC: Submits a list of 10 teams he can be traded to , so Lucic has the oilers by the balls its all in his hands on what he wants
