Proposal: McDavid to NYR

[TFHockey]

As usual, the voice of reason.
In a hard cap reality world, no way McD can come to NYR period

If Leo Drai gives a reasonable extension before, something around
Shesty +
for
Drai +
is theoretically doable.

Would be HUGE gamble that Garand matures quickly enuf, but depending on the +s, possibly worth it.

Again McD who will command max $ is not a $$$ fit = non starter

This thread is overdue to die a natural death

That isn't fair to Edmonton, unless the + to Draisaitl are three cap dumps.

We can quibble and we may or may not come to an agreement, but the pt remains it can work as a base. Structurally. One stud in a valued premier position for another.
Getting the +s to a consensus is another story. Difficult, but I would not say impossible.

1 you have no clue about hockey if you believe this . If you don't then you are trying to cause a pissing match . How did the NYR draft the 1st OA ?
2 You realize we didn't finish last but won the mclottery

3 The last part NYR wouldn't have a cup if the Oilers never gifted them 1/2 that team . Funny for such a great franchise why did Edmonton have to gift you all their talent they drafted in later rounds for your team to win ?

Weren't you guys throwing jerseys on the ice and wearing paper bags just a couple years ago?

"No goalie, no good defensemen" was what you said. That's BS.

BS? Georgiev is a good goalie? I don’t think I need to say more.

Shesterkin is clearly great, but goalies have massive ups and downs, and very few have long careers of top level play. Trading the league's best player for a goalie, who may have an off year at any point, would be a huge mistake.

We've been a disappointing playoff team for the past two years. This year? Pretty excited to see what happens
