Proposal: EDM - MIN

[roon]

To EDM -
Spurgeon
JEE
Zucker or Nino

To Min -
Drai

I guess my question to EDM fans is - Does this work as a basis or do you hang up if you don't first hear the name Dumba?

Or

To EDM -
Spurgeon

To MIN-
RNH

Also, slamming the phone or laughing counts as agreeing to the deal.

I don't think Dumba gets it done, either. The Oilers (and their fans) clearly see Draisatl as a central part of their team going forward.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Neither Dumba or Spurgeon+ get it done.

First has been beat to death regarding both Spurgeon and Dumba.

Most Wild fans say no to Spurgeon for RNH, i'd venture a guess Oilers fans would be split on RNH for Spurgeon but they can speak for themselves..

It's almost as beaten to death as the same old tired responses from Wild fans about how valuable our trade chips are that miraculously don't get moved as we exit the 1st round year after year.

I'd probably decline this one as Minnesota, but I don't think the value is way off or anything.

I think I am fine with trading Spurgeon - but I would immediately go after Faulk from the Hurricanes if I did.

This . Chia can't afford to be slamming any phones down after all the bad contracts he handed out . He better make that phone last

not a bad offer to the Oilers actually but i fear the Wild fans wouldn't like it. man if the Oilers could score Zucker and Spurgeon for Leon they should go for it !!

 

[Bazeek]

I'm not against the idea either, but I'm guessing Faulk probably costs something like Nino straight-up. So the question would be whether RNH is enough of an upgrade over Nino to justify going from Spurgeon to Faulk. I don't think he would be, personally.

I have no dog in this fight but Spurgeon is a bit of a overpay for RNH

Weird that you would think that. Spurgeon is small and doesn’t hit.

i am a fan of Spurgeon but i think he's being overrated here just a bit.

Spurgeon is absolutely an overpay for RNH. He’s not being overrated. He’s a top 30 defenseman in the league.

Great quip, it still doesn't change that Drai to MN for one of Dumba/Spurgeon has been talked about ad nauseam and Oilers fans aren't interested, regardless of what I think Dumba/Spurgeon's value is.

So yes, the the beating the dead horse gif was appropriate for the original OP which has been hashed and rehashed a dozen times.

 

[Notsince67]

His minutes are relatively tough and his possession stats are not bad and he is a RD.
RNH is a bit overpaid for his production

It isn't the over-rating of Spurgeon I was referring to

I would once like to see you make a trade proposal rather than sit and troll every proposal involving MN assets.

I’m good, thanks.

 

[roon]

I’m good, thanks.

I'm sure you are - btw what measurements are you using to determine that Spurgeon is a top 30 D in the league?

 

[ManofSteel55]

Pass on both.

I don't think it would take Nino straight up for Faulk - but even if it does we have depth to replace Nino.

RNH is a young #2 Center that put up .77 pts/game last year and has never put up less than a half a point a game on an Edmonton team that has struggled more often than not during his time with them.

I trade Nino and Spurg for RNH and Faulk and let one of the kids take Nino's role.

He put up most of those points playing as McDavid's LW, didn't he?
