Not arguing with anyone, but why are we saying that Tyler Bozak is "better" than Kris Russell in the first place??? Based on what? The fact that Tyler Bozak scores more goals and wins more faceoffs? Is that surprising?
Look at Edmonton's PK %. Now look at St. Louis's PK%. Kris Russell is a big part of that. His career plus/minus is great, especially considering what a bad defensive team Edmonton has been the past few years. Edmonton have great LHD in Klefbom and Nurse, so $4m is a little much to pay for Russell is the only reason Oilers should trade him.
Same with Bozak. He is a fantastic player, but he is probably the highest paid 3C in the league.
The question is whether each team's money would be better spent.
