All those guys that were sent out were the core that lead to multiple 1st overall picks. You're surprised the Oilers got very little for them?
Out of that entire list, Hall, Petry and Perron were the only guys that had any value when they left the Oilers.
They all had value, but the Oilers organization drove down the perception of that value leading up to the trades. It's no coincidence that Dubnyk, Schultz, Yakupov, Hall and Eberle have all improved their game after leaving the Oilers. Nor is it a coincidence that the Oilers find themselves in the exact same position they were before these trades.
