Seravalli said on his daily pod today they're willing to retain 50% ($2.9 caphit) but the ask is a 1st & 1st equivalent. For us would be Broberg 2025 1st + Foegele.

Would be bold for Holland to trade 2x1sts this deadline and have a hard time believing he trades Broberg.

But I'd do it.
I'm a little surprised at 50% they haven't gotten that return.

I'd do it in a heartbeat. I have zero attachment to our picks and prospects. Maybe if we drafted better...

I would do this trade so fast and so often the NHL's email server would crash.

Which makes me think the cost is more than that.

It isn't worth it to pay that to moderately improve on Foegele, who is a playoff-type forward himself.

We have improved depth this season with the addition of Henrique. IMO we're going to see improvements from some unexpected areas of the roster.

The difference between Buch and Foegele is 1st, top prospect and then some. Plus you get another year from Buch. Foegele is going to walk.
 
I was gonna say after today's pickups, our focus needs to be a dman. But if you can land a guy like Buch and stack our forwards.. i'd be comfortable with our defence the way it is... with a foward group that good.

It would be replacing one season of a middle-6 winger with 2 years of a point per game 1st line winger.

"Moderately" is not the word I would use.

The org apparently is super high on Broberg and think he is the second coming of Jesus or something (or so my buddy says) so I don’t think they are willing to move him at all.

The Blues are on a road trip in the New York area and the Oilers are in Columbus then Buffalo Saturday. Kenny can afford to squeeze in a power nap this afternoon with it being a short flight for Buchnevic. 😆

Plus foegele just isn't a very smart player. If you can upgrade do it
If Foegele plays a North South game he's very good.

The second he deviates from it he becomes a liability.

The problem is, just like it was in Carolina, is he wants to be a top six skilled type player and he has proven over and over he is not willing to consistently play the North South game.

Again you spelled Colton’s name wrong let me help PARAYKO :sarcasm:
I’ve been touting him as the final solution for the Oilers D for months. I’d be very happy with that! Even posted today about getting deep into Buchnevic talks then telling the Blues we’d need Parayko instead if they want their preferred assets. Ceci and Foegele out would work with the cap also. Wouldn’t need any retention on Parayko.

Calling it 'moderately' between Foegele and Buchnevich is extremely wrong.
There's a huge difference for both players and Buchnevich is more than just a moderate improvement over Foegele.
 
I’d do 25 first and bourgault and foegele (cap) for buchnevich 50%

With buch here next season there’s no shot for bourgault to even make our team for 2 years unless you see him playing 4th line

Buch is closer to Draisaitl than he is Foegele
