My question is ... WTF, Why? I doubt STL touches thatDraisaitl and Larsson for Tarasenko and Parayko.
Why do all oiler players get trashed for putting up points with McDavid? Doesn't happen to any other teams players.14 power play points... I wonder who he's on the power play with... and I have a hard time believing he's away from McDavid that much. Look at his points:
RNH from McDavid, Draisaitl
RNH from McDavid, Puljujarvi
Draisaitl from McDavid, RNH
RNH from Khaira, Larsson
Khaira from Puljujarvi, RNH
RNH from McDavid, Benning
RNH from Lucic (lul)
Nurse from RNH, Drasaitl
RNH from Khaira, Nurse
RNH from Nurse, Russell
Puljujarvi from Caggiula, RNH
Klefbom from RNH, McDavid
Chiasson from Klefbom, RNH
RNH from McDavid, Chiasson
RNH from Brodziak (lul)
Chiasson from Drasaitl, RNH
RNH from Strome, Russell
Draisaitl from Rattie, RNH
McDavid from Klefbom, RNH
Draisaitl from Larsson, RNH
Caggiula from RNH, McDavid
Draisaitl from RNH, Klefbom

By my count McDavid has directly participated in 17 of RNH's 34 points.
Wanna try a different argument that RNH is somehow a 70 point center without McDavid? I'm a secondary Oiler fan and I like RNH... But I won't call him something he clearly isn't.
Honestly if I was the Oilers, and I am not saying either team does it (Leafs likely decline honestly) but I call up the Leafs and say McDavid wants to be there, pay up. I offer McDavid for Matthews + Marner.
Huge hit to the Leafs core and team identity, huge winning pedigree gone, they become a worse team but get a better player. They also save some cap money and just have to try and get another top line winger somehow.
Oilers, well they solve their problem of depth. Marner goes with Drai for a strong first line and Matthews gets RNH who is similar to Marner in a way and if RNH can get Matthews the puck, there is another line.
Suddenly they have a ton of depth scoring and two strong lines instead of one decent one. That alone makes them a playoff team in their division. Then all they need is to get a starting quality goalie.
???Nuge isn't available either. Rn, he is a 70pt center, and Drai is a 90pt c/rw. We need to add to the only 3 good forwards we have, not to take away.
Hmmm, let's see now.
2018-19 stats: 13 goals, 21 assists, 34 points in 38 games. Over 82 games, that is 73 point pace.
Nuge has been hovering at 70-75 point pace this whole season despite being moved off Mcdavids wing only 12-15 games into the season.
Should've used the words so far this season or potentiallyOkay, so what you’re saying is that is that Timo Meier is a a 40 goal, 75 point winger, Tomas Hertl is a 75 point center, and Logan Couture is a point per game center. Good to know! I’ll definitely keep that in mind!
Come on man. You know very well that pace through 38 games doesn’t mean a player will put up that pace through the whole season. RNH is not a “70 point center” until he puts up 70 points. Period.

I'm proud of how long I held myself back & how tame my offers were. The first response should've been me just posting this gif:
Unless someone wants to give up an undisputed #1 Dman who's under 25 then Drai isn't going anywhere.

Mittelstadt
Nylander

2020 1st Round Pick (top 10 protected)
Build a package around the Ottawa pick or Barrie. OTT 1st + Timmins + Kerfoot + conditional/protected 2020 1st; or Barrie + Jost + conditional/protected 2020 1st?
Draisaitl to the Canes for Slavin, Pesce and Hamilton.
No. Nothing you’d offer is in any way enticing. Cute pretending Jost has any real value, too.
I could be a ppg player with Mcdavid
I was about to ask who hurt you to make you this way...
...then I put 2 & 2 together...
You know full well who hurt me... well us haha.
Dealing Draisaitl for Torrey Krug West and some other stuff I could take or leave is exactly the kind of thing that Mr Potato Head looking nincompoop would do.
