Duncan keith top 4 = not cup contender.

No one is giving up an asset for Kassian

First off welcome to capfriendly
The Kieth trade is way off Kieths not coming to Edmonton without major salary retained nor are we giving them any assets to acquire him, Edmonton 100% doesn’t need to make this trade and we are there only trading partner they’ll pay to move Kieth or he’ll remain a Hawk
Pass on Raanta can’t stay healthy enough to be even worth signing let alone a 5 yr deal at 4.5
To much term and money for Larsson
Same to much money for Smith give him the same deal as last 1.5 base with some performance bonuses
Coleman has stated he’s staying the US he’s American
Wells and Kuhan I don’t see the oilers bringing back, we have to many goaltending prospect and not enough spots for them all to play and Wells can’t even put up #’s in the ECHL, Kuhan showed he’s not a top six option and isn’t defensively sound enough to play in the bottom 6

One of the insiders indicated that Holland isn't interested in Keith without 30-50% retained and / or Chicago taking salary back. Keith is a great "voice in the room" but realistically he's a 3rd pairing guy at this point and for two more years at $5.54M that's a non-starter.
