Sharks aren't going to retain that much if any.

They also don't need to more EK.

Bouchard is close to being worth 1 for 1 for chychrun IMO, Younger and has all-star potential

then its ceci, Bourgualt, 1st and a 4th and foegle for crouse... would that be "ok"?

Slater Koekkoek is not an NHL defenseman. Also, you're icing a 20-man roster, which is foolish. Also also, your trade values are kinda ****y.

If I was the Oilers, Bouchard would be the only defenceman that I wouldn't move. That being said, if you want Crouse & Chych, the return is going to be large.

I would want like Bourgault or even a good defensive prospect coming back in addition to the EK65 return

your asking SJS to retain 26 mil over 5 years on a guy playing at a Norris level this year. that is a HARD pass unless the return is a higher profile top 6 or multiple 1sts.

I won't get into the value just some thoughts on the players. Any deal for Chychrun is going to be complicated enough. To add Cruise in just makes it even more tricky. Karlsson is not what Edmonton needs. The guys an upgrade on Barrie but bad in his own end
