Speculation: EDM Trades

[TFHockey]

Most posters thought a deal of Pettersson for Elias Pettersson (the young dman) and a 2nd was fair value.

Beau + 2nd? I'm not too familair with that Beau so I don't know how he comes to a guy like Pettersson. Basically, a decent prospect + 2nd. Or the equivalent of 2 2nds. This is based on recent trades for guys like Chiarot and Tanev.

I could see the Oilers doing this.

Adam Pelech??? LHD has a lot of term and some trade protection. Just spitballin on this one. I like the player and can certainly root for the Oilers.

I think Edmonton has to consider Pelech as well if he would waive his NTC, depending on cost. Has he ever played right side? Its looking more and more like the best option is to grab a LD and play either Kulak or the new LD on Nurse's right side.

Looks like Noah Philp has been called up so this might be his shot to establish himself as their 4th line center for the rest of this season. Would be great if he could check off that need, he certainly has the tools to do it.

Yeah, it seems that this is the trial run for him, so they know if they need to trade for a 4C or not.

Oilers has a 4C in the house. You dont trade for 4th line guys. Thats absurd. If they doesnt come in for a loeer round draftpick.
Oilers should also just trade Jeff skinner if he cant even challange for a roosterspot considering Nuge is falling of and Connor Brown playing top 6. No. Trade now.

Skinner may not be an elite goalie, but for the fin of the game, teams with a borderline good goalie has won before, such as Kuemper.

What oilesrs should do is to fond a physichal punishing D who can play in with Nurse and fill in besides Kulak when needed to complete Emberson dependong on his form

I belive that Emberson could be that 4th D some day, but not the exact answer right right now.

Trade Stetcher and Skinner to clear out money, get in a RD for draftpicks.

I think that’s a really good point. You should be able to draft, develop, or sign these guys every off season. Maybe even keep your eye on the waiver wire. Spending draft capital in trades for these guys mid season isn’t optimal asset management.

I think a lot of the "trade for a 4C" talk started while we weren't sure if they were going to give Philp a chance on the big team. Now that he's been called up and we know nobody is injured, its apparent that they are giving him a chance to take the 4C spot.

J. Skinner has a no trade clause. I'm sure he would take a trade to another contending team, but would a team he would want to go to take him? It would be basically dumping his salary as well, he won't have much value in trade, so unless we are replacing him with another play of equal cap hit, there's not much point to trading him.

Trading Stecher doesn't make a difference to our money situation. We can clear more money by sending Josh Brown to Bakersfield. Stecher is a fine press box guy to come in if injuries arise.
