Oilers < Reinhart, Mittlestadt, Ristolainen

Sabres < Draisaitl, Russell


Edmonton upgrade their overall talent, grooming Mittelstadt to eventually replace RNH as their #2 C, while Risto gives them some much needed help on the powerplay

Buffalo fills their need for a #2 C

Not a chance. Draisatl is a good player, but Reinhart playing with McDavid could score just as much. I wouldnt mind Draisaitl for any one of those players as the center piece, and Buffalo would clearly add. Sabres cant drop 3 young skill players for someone unless that player has a track record of driving the production of his line. I'm not saying Draisaitl cant be that, but it's too much risk that he needs McDavid around to produce the numbers he did last year.

Lol Reinhart can score 50 goals and 105 points?

This deal isn't close. Edmonton doesn't even consider it.

No shit haha. Draisaitl gets horribly underrated by fans of other teams. Reinhart is a good player but he can’t hold a candle to Leon.

That, and Ristolainen sucks. Do not want at all.

Reinhart has a different skillset than Draisaitl, but he's not a worse player.

Yeah, different, as in significantly worse. Which is not a knock on Reinhart, I'm a fan of his. But LD is one of the best players in the league and is locked up through the rest of his prime at a solid rate.
