Oilers are going to pass on the trade. Nino isn’t worth his cap hit and often has been traded more as a dump on CapFriendly lately. Bean isn’t proven yet, so I wouldn’t move Nuge with him being the best(?) piece coming back. That 1st should be 25th overall or later, and the draft isn’t expected to be super deep. Purely as a rental I guess it’s not horrible, but there’s probably teams needing a 2C (Winnipeg comes to mind) that would offer more

Word is a new contract is getting close to done for Hopkins too last I read

Yeah fair enough. I don’t think nino is a cap dump, he is still a 40-50 point guy and I could def see him playing in the top 6 in Edmonton. I think the canes would consider adding a little more but not sure what

What about Hamilton instead.

Nah the canes have every intention to resign him

the oilers don't really need bean so instead of try this
dzingel
a first
suzuki or antoher top fwd prospect

Yeah I’d be good with that. I sent bean thinking he could replace Klefbom
