So on top of the "worst trade since Gretzky" you make 3 more awful deals?

on paper it might look bad but in long term it might work out kind of like Hall for Larsson got see how that trade unfolds.

GM Peter Chiarelli has multiple reports he wants to explore the trade market, also he is targeting 3 defenseman (Barrie, Ellis, Fowler)

Ellis from Nashville (they traded for PK Subban, signed Irwin/Webber) Ellis might be the easiest acquisition
Brown C-less in LA Kings has potential time frame to move him, also might be willing to pay part of his salary, Gaborik can still play and both of them can help
Anaheim lost (Perron, McGinn, Haglein and they will try to trade Fowler before the year is over.)

Yakupov has been on the trading block along with RNH. Nothing against them or your points but the whole league will make multiple deals due to cap restrictions both contracts are in most teams budget

I am curious to see your ideal Edmonton Oilers roster, if you wish to share based on the Oilers current roster who would you trade or keep to make them a better team?
