Nurse actually outperforms when paired with Bear as opposed to Barrie or any other defender that the Oilers iced this past season. If Bear were given time on the powerplay he'd also have offensive numbers I can imagine. Fancy stats favor Bear infinitely more than Barrie as does the eye test. Barrie stacks secondary assists and PP points.

Folks have to stop blaming prospects for not getting NHL roles in their early 20s it's hard to think of anything more misguided and myopic

Especially when their teams are trying to contend

Especially when the GMs are chiarelli / Holland

Benson has had AHL scoring rates on par with most good 1st round picks for three years now and his age 20 season was especially notable

His NHLe for 3 years has been ~30 that's lovely

He's quite a good prospect and asset</div></div>

The issue with Benson is and has always been his speed and whether it'll work at an NHL level. I do think he has more value than most online forums assume he has to real world GM's but I also think that it's not as high as listed here.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Smokingun71</b></div><div>You really think it costs a first and Jones to dump Neal? Might as well just buy him out then. Why would you trade a second pair young RHD, our best forward prospect, a first and a third rounder in a strong draft and then think it’s too low, so why not throw in another B level D prospect on top of that. I would be expecting a way better player then Nylander coming back our way for that package!</div></div>

Seattle Selects Caleb Jones, The 1st is for Seattle to take Neal. I think the value to Nylander is close, I may be a bit over, may be a bit under but seeing what Oilers fans were valuing Rackell at for a single year, I think Nylander is a better player and would be worth more (especially considering he's got another 3 years)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Quillanrocks</b></div><div>I definitely like the idea of finding a trade for Neal rather than all the buyout talk. Significant "dead money" for the next 4 seasons would be brutal. But if that's the price it takes Holland to have Seattle take that problem (and I'm sure it will be!) then I sure hope he uses that extra cap space to very good use! Otherwise I say the Oilers just gut it out and if they have to, bury him in the minors for a savings for the final 2 years of his contract.</div></div>

There's an alternate reality where you move Neal and sign someone like Hamilton, move Bear for Debrusk (some fine tuning may be needed here) bring in Killorn instead of Schwartz for a 2nd and maybe a low tier prospect. I left a majority of Neals cap (5~M) to adjust for dollars signed, some flexibility at the deadline and such.
