<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MauriceArthur15</b></div><div>I can agree with the rest as those are shots in the dark. You can I upgrade certain parts and area as I did leave cap space behind to do so. I disagree with the Neal contract and conception.

This my reasoning and hopefully it sheds some of my insight as to why I think it’s smart to trade your 1st this year. This years draft is probably the weakest draft since 2012 and has the potential to be even worse than 2012. The quality of prospects just isn’t there and the projection of top end talent is there. Unless the plan is to take a goalie at 19 which is reach as Sebastian Cossa is more of later 1st rounder and would be a reach at 19. That’s just my 2 cents as you’re in a win now mode and it makes zero sense to bank on futures rn when you have 2 top 10 players in the NHL on your roster.</div></div>

I do want the Oilers to trade their first round pick but only if they can get something valuable in return for it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bringer_Of_Snow</b></div><div>I like the targets for the most part.

I'd be very concerned about trading a good prospect and a 1st for Garland. Simply too small a sample size and doesn't have the innate draft pedigree. Obviously he has looked good for the Yotes, but at that cost, I'd hope for a more establish player like Meier/Hertl.

I like the addition of Goodrow on the 4th, but it would be nice to add another top 6 guy too. Holloway is not a write in, so I think Coleman would be perfect. Can play middle 6 pretty comfortably and is a really gritty player.</div></div>

I like Coleman but according to reports he wants to play in the USA and is likely to sign with Dallas, his hometown. And Garland scored at a rate that would give him 20 goals and 65 points over 82 games. He akso scored 22 goals last year and 39 points. And he's 25 so he's going to be valuable. Something else with Hertl/Meier is that next year we're going back to the original divisions and I doubt San Jose would be willing to trade either one of those two to a division rival whereas Arizona is moving to the central so they might be willing to trade with Edmonton.

One year too long for Mrazek. Only goalies that are worth signing 4+ years are true elite (or near elite) number 1 goalies. Goalies in Mrazeks tier (1A/fringe starter) should be signed to 3 years max. Because goalies are so hot and cold this is short enough that you can either play out the entire thing or convince another team to take it, but it's long enough to convince Mrazek to sign and to have some stability. Also, Mike Smith isn't gonna sign for 1 mil. He made 2 mil this year and had one of the best seasons of his career. Even at his age he'll want around 2.5 mil. Last thing, I wouldn't want to give up such valuable picks for Reinhart. Hes a very good player but I feel you could get a player that's better than him or you could get him and another solid player from Buffalo.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pete</b></div><div>Hi guys, what is so horrible from your perspective.
Departure of Klefbom, Larsson and Yamamoto?
Too many forward spots for rookies?
Something else?</div></div>

Oilers should be keeping Klefbom for next year. Giving up a second to get rid of him makes no sense. The Yamamoto trade is terrible. Yamamoto is 22 years old and is already a solid second line winger. Let him develop and he'll be a very good top 6 forward. Trading him for a 29 year old 3rd liner makes this team worse now and in the future. Now to the Larsson trade. First of all, Larsson is a UFA and there is no way Columbus gives up something valuable for a UFA. Remember Kevin Hayes only got a 6th round pick when he got traded to Philly cuz he was a free agent? Second of all, Oilers should be keeping Larsson anyway because he is extremely important to this team and the Oilers can get a better goalie in free agency than Korpisalo. The Jones trade is bad too. Even though Jones has struggled this year he's still only 23 years old and has shown glimpses of having top 4 dman potential in the past. Abramov is solid but I can't see him becoming anything more than a fringe third liner. And you overpaid for Khaira by about 300k. And give Lavoie more time to develop.
