Let's say this season we come close to playoff but we don't make it and Oilers shit on the bed this year and finish bottom 10 . Are you guys open to offer center swap aka Norris ++ vs Draisaitl ? In this scenario Norris had a decent full year with 30G and Oilers want to do big shake up to win Stanley cup with MCD. Probably the ++ has to be some picks and good young or roster player. Money wise it should be good with some tweaks.
Draisaitl just re-signed for eight years, and has a full NMC (on this last year of his old deal as well). Edmonton wouldn't even think about trading him even if they could, which they cannot. You do not trade a star for multiple lesser pieces either, it just does not work.
It also needs to be mentioned, that if for some reason such a deal were possible, and if the goal were to try and get a Cup while McDavid is there, "some picks and good young or roster player" wouldn't cut it, because trading a star for that makes winning less likely not more likely. You'd be talking about elite players going back the other way, as that is the only thing that might increase their chances, and is enough to cover the value of a star player signed longterm. That means at least one of Sanderson, Stützle or Tkackuk, and then quite a bit on top of that, not Norris as the main bit. Otherwise they would just do what any sane team would do: keep their star and shuffle the lesser pieces of the roster.
That doesn't even cover that McDavid is up for a new contract soon and would very likely be extremely displeased if you traded his best friend who also happens to be one of the best players in the world. In all likelyhood, such a trade would make sure that McDavid leaves the year after at the latest.
The cost of acquring Draisaitl would just not be worth it for Ottawa. Nor would it make any sense for Edmonton to deal him.
