Proposal: Det - Edm

[mhstudios]

To Edmonton

Dylan Larkin

To Detroit

Leon Draisaitl or RNH

Why do this trade?

I love the speed of Larkin and I would love to see him with McDavid. Just imagine Larkin and McDavid together, they would be lightning fast.

Edmonton has RNH and Leon Draisaitl so they can trade one of them. I know they would prefer to trade RNH, but if that doesn't get the job done, they can trade Leon Draisaitl.

You never asked why Detroit does this, and I suspect it's because there's no reason for them to.

 

[McBaevid]

What does Detroit add?

 

[DraberlyakMcHallkins*]

Seems like no gain for either side. Just one guy's hope for a stylistic duo

Aside from them getting the better player?

We've got a big centerman, and a 2 way centerman. Both of which are important to win in the West. You don't trade them for someone who is worse, and fills less of a need

 

[DraberlyakMcHallkins*]

I don't know that I'd call Larkin objectively worse. I'll wait until Draisaitl doesn't have Hall, not that Zetterberg is a slouch

I take RNH over both all day though

 

[Balloon]

As a neutral fan, I'd take Larkin over RNH or Draisaitl.

 

[PuckG]

Larkin has every possibility of becoming better than both those two, but he isn't yet. I'm happy with the both Draisaitl and RNH so I'd pass.

 

[hamzarocks]

I'd take drai over larkin right now, but larkin has quite a high ceiling himself. Rnh is a guy I feel will benefit greatly next year with the Oilers looking like they will finally turn he corner. I think he can still get 70 pts. If I had to rank them right now I would go
Drai
Rnh/Larkin.
I think both sides would rather keep what they have and let the talent grow

I'd take Larkin over RNH anyday of the week

Larkin/Draisatl is really close

 

[Double Dion]

I'd take Larkin way ahead of either RNH or Draisitl. I'd trade Monahan for Larkin in a second too btw and I wouldn't move him for either RNH or Draisitl.

 

[SoupNazi]

No thank you.

 

[13to40]

Would be neat to see those two players play together, but the trade doesn't work for Detroit's side.

 

[McWeber]

Im in agreement with the majority that neither side is interested in this.

Weird, considering RNH is better than Draisaitl.

 

[Go Wings]

Larkin is actually from Detroit and likely our future captain. Detroit will not trade him.

 

[SupremeTeam16]

How is Larkin at RD?

How is Larkin at RD?

At the rate the wings are going we may find out this year

 

[Sempiternal]

Not a bad offer, but Centres are worth more than Wingers. Chia loves having 3 solid Centres and no way he trades big strong Leon Draisaitl. RNH and his two-way game will be invaluable to the Oilers when they finally make the playoffs.

Pass.

 

[The Nuge]

Weird, considering RNH is better than Draisaitl.

Yep. You can certainly debate the potential of them, but right now, it's

RNH




Draisaitl

Larkin


I totally understand if Detroit fans wanted to keep Larkin, but it makes beyond no sense for us

Weird, Draisaitl doesn't have a $6m cap hit. Detroit is how far above the cap? Do you know?

 

[rockinghockey]

If EDM trades one of those guys it is for a right shooting dman to play with Sekera

Larkin is a natural center.

Larkin-McDavid-AA is a line I would love to see though.

Weird, An Oiler fan didn't start this thread and I havent seen one that really give a **** about the trade or the Wings cap. Now you know

How is Larkin at RD?

He makes a few mistakes but has the speed to get back.
