<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>Good luck improving your team sir. Trying to get a premium rate on everything is going to get you about as far as Chiarelli got you. Edmonton has a tonne of needs, very few prospects and not much space. You have to buy guys who could be bargains. A former 20 goal scorer who has played with McDavid (outscored him that year, and I know that doesn't matter but it shows they could work well together), at 2.1 million is a bargain of a player. Thats the sort of stuff Edmonton needs to do. Sign Ennis for 2 years at 2.5 and hope he can provide quality offense at a cheap rate.

To think you can low ball guys and grind other teams when you are in a position of weakness is silly.</div></div>

My point is yes we need bargain guys. Trading a 2nd and 3rd rounder for Connor Brown is definitely not a bargain. That's more than above market value for him. Ennis at 2.5M is not a bargain either. I'm fully aware the Oilers aren't in any position of strength which is all the more reason to not make stupid deals like two picks for a 3rd line player. I defitely see a fit for Brown on the roster. But not at the cost of a 2nd rounder AND a 3rd.
