<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>uphere</b></div><div>Keith has been okay, but definitely hasn't played to his salary level. If he retires this summer the Oilers will get a salary cap boost. If he plays out his contract, then he hurts insofar as he's paid more than he is able to bring on the ice. IMO he hurts a bit this year, and potentially quite a bit next year. In contrast, the only value Reinhart brought the Oilers was as expansion draft fodder. That cost them a shot at some seriously good talent in a pretty deep draft class. I say that hurts more.</div></div>

Yeah, I'll be the first to admit that Keith has been playing better than I anticipated, didn't have a great game last night though. However, giving up a third (thinking it would have been a second) and Caleb Jones (who's been solid this year) is giving up way too much.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Leddy isn't going to play above Nurse or Keith and his numbers are terrible last time I looked. By the deadline Broberg may be back up too, meaning Leddy is an extra. Gagner is well known in Edmonton, he doesn't fit except as an extra, if that. Kind of like Sceviour and Shore.

No interest at all. Have a great day.</div></div>

Nick Leddy is MILES ahead of Duncan Keith, what are you talking about. I won't lie, Keith hasn't been as bad as I thought he would be, but the guy is not better than Leddy dude. If you want to contend, Broberg will stay in the AHL until next season. Let him get some consistent minutes.

Gagner may be an extra, but he is a much better penalty killer (again, 102 penalty minutes killed) than Shore and he actually has the ability to produce, which is missing big time from the Oilers bottom 6.

You're undervaluing Leddy tremendously, while overrating Niemelaninen's value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Leddy isn't a 2LD, that's silly.

Gagner isn't a center, so he doesn't replace Ryan at all.

Edmonton has no use for any of these guys. Why would they give up a 2nd + a nearly-NHL-ready shutdown defenseman?</div></div>

I don't think you watch a lot of Leddy lol. The guy eats minutes and can put up a solid amount of points in a season. Getting him a $2,750,000 is an absolute steal.

Gagner may not play a ton of center anymore, but the guy has more skill and kills a ton of penalty minutes. You just lose Ryan's face off ability. Realistically, you could get rid of Sceviour or Shore.

Niemelaninen got walked around A LOT during his stint here. I'm not so high on him (Samarukov and Broberg profile much better).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DogDayCaps2</b></div><div>Imo it would be impossible to trade Leddy without retaining any $$$. 5.5m is a lot of money. His value is a 2nd imo. Now if teams go full on crazy and start to outbid each other it’s not impossible for him to get a 2nd + a good prospect OR a playoffs team 1st (16-32). I’m not really downplaying Leddy abilities.. I wouldn’t trade for him if I didn’t think he was good. cap hit is why I feel he’s worth a 3rd w no retention.</div></div>

If Leddy's contract was 2.75, he's worth a first easily. Don't forget you're also adding in Namestnikov while dumping Schultz's contract. Detroit has Seider and Hronek as their top 2 RHD, while this trade would make Danny DeKeyser their top LHD dman.

There's a lot of negatives for the Wings.
