Oilers dont want Drouhin and we have Skinner already who is looking fantastic for next year.

Drouin we keep
He's one of the long bright spots this season
Im curious to see if he can hit that next level

Allen i think makes more sense going to a team like TBL,BOS or COL
I think COL makes the most sense then helping the team you lost to in the finals three-peet
But i think TBL is willing to pay more then COL or BOS
Plus unlike COL and BOS they can live with what they got
TBL has to find someone more reliable then Brian Elliotte

I don't know what your players are doing this year but I think Drouin could be phenomenal with McDavid & Hyman

Drouin is Ducharme's guy
Under Claude Julien Drouin struggled
But since entering Ducharme his formed Memorial Cup Coaches system he's 1/4 forwards thriving in it.

-Drouin,Hoffman,Suzuki and Dvorak found their place in his system.
-Toffoli is adjusting to a defensive role but will adjust in time IMO
-Anderson is doing ok but i think 4-5 of his Goals were empty net goals that meant very little (2 in one game in 60 seconds actually)
-Gallagher sadly hasnt found a spot and defensively is doing ok but he personally thrived in Claude's system stealing Radulov's #1 RW spot 3 weeks into CJ coaching return scoring 30 goals multiple times only under Claude Julien as Michel Therrien/Dom Ducharme use him as a shutdown Center.
-Armia without KK or Danault looks lost in this system. He'll get there in time i think but he might be on the move as 1/3 RW listed need to go soon as Ylonen's about read to leap frog Caufield
-Lehkonen's playing his best hockey in years its just to bad its only 3rd line level hockey. With Drouin,Hoffman and Toffoli infront of him he's gotta go so Pezetta can grow(we need a Pezetta agitator type)
-Evans is doing well enough to keep this year atleast
-Poehling is starting to show some form of consistency and might be worth molding into a 4th line Center who plays 2nd PP and PK
-Caufield is safe but NYR like developing their prospects and not waisting their Waiver Exempt days so i suspect Gorton builds a system similar in that regard to MTL
-Chiarot is playing better then any of our D but his time's up in MTL as he's a pending UFA we wont resign as Harris is turning Pro in 4 months as in Ghule plus Norlinder is already here with Romanov and Eddy
-Petry is likely to stay but if he wants out he could be traded but it would take him asking
-Savard is not what we needed, we were expecting a top4 D but he's a #5 D with Niku/Wideman sharing top 4 as he cant step up.(fine for a team that needs a #5 D(we needed a #3 settled on a #4 got a #5 D)
-Wideman wont return and likely to be traded at the TDL
-Niku we'll re-sign if possibly
-Allen is likely gone at the TDL even though he's played well i expect Goton to run Price/Primeau like he did Biron/Lunqvist, Lundqvist/Talbot/Raanta and Georgiev always going with Veteran and a 22-27 year old Goalie

I expect MTL to be sellers but i also expect Gorton to bring in a few prospects as well
NYR got a Lias Anderson situation happening with a Gorton guy as he was suspended for not reporting to AHL before returning to KHL where he's likely to stay until he's traded.
Chances are they're going to try to land him in hopes Romanov can help influence him as they grew up competing against each other and both entered the KHL at an early age taking their competition to the Pro level. I think Gorton offer's then a 3rd and Lehkonen at best as unlike Anderson who got a Late Late 2nd round pick Kravatsov has not proven himself on North American Ice just Olympic sized in Russia

No thanks.

As far as Kravtsov is concerned, I'm struggling to come up with prospects who have refused AHL assignments and still managed to reach their potential. Anybody?

I can however think of about a dozen players off the top of my head, who either busted, defected, or were traded for peanuts. I'd be hesitant to give up even close to the rumored "top prospect" NYR wants for Kravtsov.

I agree taht I wouldn't give up that much for Kravtsov but you have to understand the guy : 70 000$ in the AHL or more than 1M in Russia. He's also from a city close to the Pacific in Russia.

I do understand. Sometimes it's ego, sometimes it's money, but you have the opportunity to earn millions of dollars. If you aren't willing to invest the time into your development, don't sign the contract.
All I'm saying is that I don't find those players to be worth the risk in general. Most of them don't become impact players, so the price shouldn't be exhorbitant.
