2. While Edmonton might accept that trade, their defense is a mess and I think they want to keep Bear

1. Mentioned in the explanation that all #s were based on somebody else's projections (which use aggregated data to develop a predictive model—tries to account for how these things get inflated when free agency starts).
2. They probably do, but I expect their top priority is finding a winger who can play with McDavid, and Brown has done so (in junior, but still; they're screwed if their only option is playing Draisaitl on his wing). At worst, Brown improves their forward group.
3. Also mentioned in the explanation. The purpose is to show that the Marleau deal is the biggest barrier to making any realistic moves toward improvement, rather than just treading water for a year during the window waiting for his contract to expire.
