Ok folks i know edmonton fans don't like that proposal, i will up that one by telling Dubas to make a move and offer up Mathews and Nylander and i am sure that will rattle some feathers in leaf land as well, here is my point as i see it this leafs team needs a shake up cause they are not good going forward as i see it so why not take a chance and change it up by making a big move like this never mind little changes that dont make a difference, same thing for edmonton, how about it folks common DUBAS wake up same thing with Holland make a move, i think they can make the money ballance out somehow....

Wouldn't you rather have literally ANYONE except for Edmonton develop that pick before you get your hands on him? What good is another RNH/Pulju/Yakupov for you?

That's a weird thing to say. Bedard has McDavid-type development right now and will probably be the next star to build around. McDavid wasn't ruined, he has a lot of accolades and is putting up generational numbers despite the environment he is in.
I mean, they are trying their hardest to break his spirit, so there's that.

This is exactly why everyone and their dogs hate Leafs fans.

This sort of thing doesn't work as you have to take back more cap from them but the idea is closer than most. Edmonton's problem isn't McDavid it's their garbage like like Barrie, Keith, Ceci and of course Hyman who was easily replaced with Bunting. So the only way it works is if we take a bunch of their crap with McDavid and give them quality in return while keeping cap the same. So just for an example you might need to add Rielly and take back Ceci and Hyman etc. Either way it's not going to work.

Electricity is really just organized lightning.
Because chances are this wasn't made by a leaf fan. Poster had like 30 posts total all in trade forums from what I can tell

Who isn’t coming off major innovation neck surgery.
This is the big reason the Eichel trade != McDavid trade
However the proposals of like Matthews + Nylander + Sandin ++ are absurd. If McDavid can't get it done in Edmonton with one of the best players in the league on his team why are the leafs going to sell the farm to get him without a proper supporting cast?

It will be funny when both AM and CM leave their respective teams. 
and Stevie will be ready.

McDavid developed himself, he’s that good. Edmonton org had nothing to do with it. Now do the rest.

MCDavid, Draisital for Matthews, Marner and Nylander (and some throw ins to make the cap work) who says no?
Just for curiosity, what do you think that the Oilers would gain from this trade besides the 8.5 extra milion in cap hit?

Honestly I have not thought about it nor do I really care. I was just having some fun and three out a scenario as others are doing. At the very least it would be a huge shake up of both teams and just thought it would be a fun discussion
