Are you serious . Lol hell no

 

[Cup or Bust]

Why do the Oilers want to trade Drasaitl in the first place? They signed him for 8 years because they want to keep him. If they wanted to trade him they would have done it in the offseason when he was an RFA. Draisaitl is going to be an Oiler for a long time.

 

[rynryn]

oh man. Nooooooooo.
From Oiler perspective obvs.

 

[McWeber]

Nope, there aren't really any pieces in Montreal that get the Draisaitl conversation started.

 

[McVespa99]

I dont see what the Habs could offer to get the Oil to part with Dr Drai. It would be quantity for quality and no one wants that for their great players

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Nope not interested. Drouin's nice, everything else is meh, and we're fine on LW.

 

[McShogun99]

Draisaitl and 4th overall for Subban and 9th overall.....

Draisaitl and 4th overall for Subban and 9th overall.....

Kinda hilarious that both teams, instead of making a deal that could have helped themselves and each other, went and lost stupid seperate deals instead.

Bergevin had to go and get greedy...

 

[Dominicr]

I would’ve dealt parayko for Draisaitl before he was given his contract. Way overpayment in my mind.

3/10

 

[Skobel24]

Trading for Drouin leaves a pretty big hole at center for the Oilers, and they don't need a LW. If anything, they need a RW.

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Habs don't have the pieces

How about:

Drai
Talbot

Weber @ 50% retained
Price @ 50% retained

That makes about as much sense to the Habs as your proposal for Edmonton

 

[The Macho King]

The Habs don't have the pieces to get Draisatl.

Draisaitl and 4th overall for Subban and 9th overall.....

In hindsight could you imagine if....

TOR Matthews
WPG Laine
CBJ Dubois
MTL Sergachev
CGY Puljujarvi
VAN Juolevi
ARI Tkachuk
BUF Nylander

...we walked out of that draft with Subban and KELLER!!!!!

Don't think Montreal would have passed on Puljujarvi. Also, Vancouver picked before Calgary, so if they did, I doubt Vancouver would have passed on him. Regardless, seeing Keller beside McDavid would be sick.

Draisaitl and 4th overall for Subban and 9th overall.....

It is a fantastic exercise in curiosity to wonder what both teams would look like if that deal had taken place (that deal and not the ridiculous ask Bergevin reportedly made).

Would we still do Hall for Larsson (I personally hope so)?

If our current top 4 were

Nurse/Sekera-Subban
Klefbom-Larsson

With Sergachev as our top D prospect. Wow.

 

[tempest2i]

Draisaitl for Subban and the pick swap would have been a franchise altering move for both teams.

Too bad CBJ had to take PLD #3 and mess it all up.

 

[YakDavid]

Don't think Montreal would have passed on Puljujarvi. Also, Vancouver picked before Calgary, so if they did, I doubt Vancouver would have passed on him. Regardless, seeing Keller beside McDavid would be sick.

I agree even Puljujarvi at 4 was a surprise. Pre draft he was highly regarded. Even now it's been a year and a bit and he still has high value.

If Edmonton made that trade then I believe Hall would still be an Oiler but Larsson and Lucic wouldn't be.

Of course there is, ffs.

Draisaitl isn't anything that special anymore anyway

An unpolite no from the oilers

 

[Mackiaveli]

we're fine on LW.

I am a Habs fan and can identify this trade is not fair at all.

But really?

Lucic
Maroon
Strome
Khaira
Pakarinen

Your LW depth is beyond terrible. Maroon is a serviceable 2LW, but you'd have to pay me to take any of those other players.

Habs would offer Patches + 1st for Draisaitl and Lucic. Free you from that god awful contract in return for Draisaitl. Oilers get a pick somewhere between Lottery and 26th, not too sure + Patches ---Probably hurts the Habs in the long run, but we will figure that out.
