Edm does this Mtl doesn’t

How does this help Edmonton?

I'll let you think a bit about your question, sure you can figure it out

Lesser defenseman, slight upgrade in goal who will not fair much better than who Edmonton has right now. Then swapping Gallagher's awful deal for Holloway plus adding a second.

Allen can play. Campbell can not.

Habs pass

Seriously, as a Habs fan, I love the Oilers and it's a bummer that they're stuck in a downward spiral. They need an electroshock.
The trade offered here is really horrendous for Montreal, but I can see Allen fitting in Edmonton.
I know it sounds a bit weird, but Jake Allen - the man - is a quality human being, very calm and a leader for the guys. He's far from the best, but he doesn't panic like Campbell. He may be a good target.
